Pallets
 
Any idea what they use to make pallets out of? I'm no wood expert but it almost looks like white pine they're cutting up to throw out. Looks like yellow pine but is very very light in color....any idea how to tell what it is for sure.

Most reusable pallets are made of OAK! However alot of custom pallets that are meant for "one trip" are pine.

These definitely aren't oak. They are much lighter in weight and they look like pine but are almost white in color. I already scoffed'em up and put them in the car.

If they make crappy plugs they'll make a good campfire. :D
