[QUOTE="REO6205, post: 12247145, member: 137130"]A lot of customers consider hauling pallets to be a back haul...at back haul rates...which amounts to fuel money if you're lucky. Several of the big canneries in our area do this. They have their dedicated trucks that move their product and a lot of time they haul pallets back to the same plant they brought product from. For free. I'm sure there are pallet hauls somewhere that pay enough to make it worthwhile but the people doing them are keeping quiet about it.
