Free: Wooden Pallets (CT9) Expired I've got 8 wooden pallets that I need to get rid of if someone can make use of them. Please don't say you'll have them if you don't actually want them or if you can't collect them as I was let down by 3 different people with the last item I offered and it was really frustrating! FREEGLE NOTE PLEASE READ: Re burning scrap timber especially treated decking: and MB MARKED PALLETS These pallets have been treated with a highly toxic pesticide where there are pests that can’t be eliminated by heat treatments. You should never use MB stamped pallets for a craft project and you should never burn these pallets on a fire. Methyl bromide treatment was made illegal in the UK in 2010 and is being phased out worldwide. Pallets are durable though, so there are some MB stamped pallets still in circulation. So it’s always worth being careful and double checking your pallet stamps. If you can’t tell what the stamp was, don’t use the pallet! -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- Please remember to check your account for 'Chat' messages from other members and/or site vounteers.
