The value of a shipping pallet depends on its size, design, material,
condition, and location. Companies that would purchase used shipping
pallets include trucking/logistics companies, pallet recycling
companies, and warehousing operations.

Suppliers of new and used pallets do not publish their prices.
Instead, they use a quotes process to gather the customer's
requirements, calculate the appropriate pallet for the job, then quote
based on the needs and the quantity required.

Recyclers of used pallets typically provide 'free pickup' service in
exchange for not having to pay for the pallets. Buyers of recycled
pallets prefer to purchase pallets from known dealers who can back up
the performance of the pallets with a guarantee.

Your best route to take would be to contact a couple of trucking firms
in your area, as well as any pallet companies, to see if they are
willing to purchase the pallets at this time.

Here are some companies you can contact:

It will depend on your luck whether any of these companies are
currently in the market for some additional pallets, and would be
willing to buy them from you. At a minimum, Crates Unlimited should be
willing to take them off your hands for recycling, and they are
located in the Orangeville area.

Hope this helps!
