Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @mia22. Thank you for sharing your query about the availability of pallets for collection.
The pallets are free to collect at the store when they are available. Yes, you may pick them up any time of the year. I recommend calling your local store and speaking to a timber yard team member to make sure that there are some available for you to pick up. Because of their popularity with the D.I.Y. community, the free pallets are often picked up as soon as they are available. If you need assistance in having some put aside, please let us know.
When the time comes to build your project, please don't hesitate to post it. Our members are keen to see your creation.

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @DanielWCC1. It's brilliant that you've decided to join us and many thanks for your question about free pallets.
Unfortunately, there is only limited access to our Melbourne metropolitan stores at the moment. In the interim, you might like to have a look around your local area. I've often seen pallets discarded on the nature strip at building sites and at veggie markets. It's always best to ask before taking them, though.

Hello @peggy2317
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. Thank you for joining us and sharing your question about the availability of free pallets during lockdown.
Can you please tell us which stores are closest to you? I can make some inquiries for you and find out if they are open to the public. Do you have a pallet project in mind? Please don't hesitate to share, our ever-helpful members are more than happy to provide advice and information should you need it.

Hello @peggy2317
The best place to pick up the free pallets is at Bunnings Rockdale. I've spoken to a team member and I've been informed that their free pallets are now outside the store and can be picked up without going inside. Bunnings Kingsgrove is currently not able to provide any free pallets at this time. Please note that both stores are still closed to the public and are only open to trade customers.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hello @lucymjordan
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. Thank you so much for joining us sharing your question about the availability of free pallets.
The closest stores to that area are Bunnings Port Melbourne and Bunnings Collingwood. Let me make some inquiries for you on the possibility of getting free pallets from those stores. As soon as I have more information, I will get back to you. Building a pallet couch sounds like a fantastic project. Depending on the complexity that you want to tackle, there are some really easy ways to make a backyard lounger.
