#8, free because you stole them or free, free. Those a quality pallets and usually have a deposit on them or are required to be returned.

Hermione,
There is the EUR - sign on the pallets. These are normed, high quality and even tested and vertified.
And they seem to be brand new.
The transport companies are charged normally 25,-€ for a new pallet.
I've seen already several transport companies going broke because of customers that didn't return the "free pallets" and refused to pay for them.

Scotty,
You are correct with the Story but i just see a "crown" on the pallets, no signs showing the good quality of Euro pallets. Seems to be different type. So it could be real free stuff. But maybe I'm wrong.

Miriam,
A buddy of mine has a hardwood mill dedicated to building shipping pallets for businesses. There's always some that don't meet quality standards (wood split, knots, etc) so he gives them away to folks in town.

Hermione,
If you ask someone at a construction site, usually they can give you some pallets for free (at least here in germany). EUR pallets are for transport/cargo and are indeed not for free.

Hermione, In my country they free, they get thrown out in the trash or burned, a lot of really good plywood too, my dads company used to throw away 1.6m by 1.8m by 18mm sheets, usually about 30 to 40 of them a month, same with pallets, probably 40 a month, they were just part of the packaging.

#3 - there’s a magazine called “Handyman” where they did that project. They had like a three page “how to” article on it. Unfortunately, that doesn’t pass a code inspection in any state - you can’t have combustible building material underneath the stairs because in the event of fire it eliminates the only path of escape if it burns. The wall underneath the stairs has to be built with a fire resistant product like gypsum wall board. I dunno, just thought it was kinda funny that they ran a three page article for something that’s really a fire hazard. Of course, a homeowner isn’t going to get caught until they go to sell the house.
