Collecting and Selling Pallets

Projected Profit:$800-$3200

This is an idea for just about anybody.

Collecting pallets from stores and businesses and selling them is good business. Many companies don't have a way to get rid of their pallets, so they have to pay to get them sent to the dump. What a lot of companies don't know is that these pallets can be sold for big bucks.

All you have to do is go around to local stores and businesses and offer to take the pallets off their hands for free. Don't let them know that you get paid for the pallets, because they will just want to sell them.

Depending upon the sizes and condition of the pallets, you can sell them anywhere from $1-$4 each. You will want to sell these to local pallet companies that you can find in the yellowbook. These pallet companies then sell these pallets to trucking distributors. If you were to collect 50 pallets a day, 4 days a week then you can be making anywhere from $800-$3200 a month.
