The Easiest Way Ever to Take Apart a Pallet
10 Minutes
Easy
You don't need to pull out the crowbar (unless you want to) to take apart a pallet and salvage the wood for your DIY projects.
A few years ago I had my husband dumpster dive to get me pallets ~ the poor man did and once I had them {I was sure I needed them to live another day} ~ they sort of just 'sat' around my house. I didn't do anything overly awesome with them.
I tried taking them apart with a crowbar but I now know I have the strength of a flea and that just didn't work for me. So, I got over my fear of power saws and tore into the worst of my two pallets.
I can't believe, honestly, how easy it was to saw them apart.
I followed all the directions in the user's manual and in less than 10 minutes my pallet was apart and I had a stack of usable salvaged wood for DIY projects.
