Hello @harriethurst
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's fantastic to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about free pallets.
Pallets are often available at the store in the timber yard. However, these pallets are often picked up by D.I.Y enthusiasts such as yourself and are on a first come first serve basis. I've contacted both the Caringbah and Kirrawee stores and they only have a few pallets available. I suggest calling these stores before you proceed to make sure that they have enough for your project. It's best to see the current condition of the pallets before you begin your project.
It sounds like an interesting project. Any project updates you can provide would be very much appreciated.

Hello @stacilla
It's good to hear that you've managed to get some pallets for your project. If you are planning on painting them, I suggest using exterior paint or a stain and varnish. Either of these two products will provide protection for your pallet table and chairs. It sounds like a fantastic project. Would it be possible for you to post a photo of your pallet project? I'm sure our members would be keen to see what you've created.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hi @BoeingFan
I've just been in contact with Bunnings Grafton and at the moment they are out of pallets to give away. Apparently, the last two were used for in-store use. I suggest giving them a call on Friday afternoon and checking if any are available at the store. The customer service team member has informed me that they always leave their pallets outside the store for anyone to pick up.
Would you mind telling us what you plan on building with the pallets? I'm sure our members would be keen to see what you have in mind.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hello @adrian7174
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. Thanks for joining the discussion.
The free pallets are often stacked at the front of the store for D.I.Y. enthusiasts to take home and use. If you can tell me the closest store to your area, I'll be more than happy to check if they have any pallets available. If you decide to go to other stores, my suggestion is to call ahead to make sure that the store you're going to has some to give away.
You're potting table sounds like a great project. Please makes sure to post an update, I'm sure our members would be keen to see what it looks like once you've built it.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.
