I am looking for a couple of plastic pallets around 48" x 40" or so to ship some stuff to China, as they dont take wood ones.
Anyone have one or two or know where I can find a couple ?
Let me know
Cheers

Bel Air uses them, but I am not sure if the sell/give them away. China, huh, that's gonna cost you a pretty penny, isn't it?

Thats interesting....I've never seen a plastic pallet - didn't know they even existed.
I used to ship lots of gear to China in wooden containers (very large) for tradeshows - course they also were shipped back when I returned, but China is such a non-environmental kind of place, the pollution levels there are insane... I can only guess they don't want wooden ones so that maybe they could have the plastic ones to be able to re-use.

Ususally the broker or forwarder who is moving the freight for you can provide you with some. They're not cheap (last time I checked, the were around $90), but used ones should be fine if they can get them for you.

Actually I can buy new ones for $25 ea plus the shipping if I buy 5. I only need 1 or 2 . Guess I will have to get the 5 unless I locate a chicken.
