Are they heat treated or chemically treated? The garden could use a few (9-12) for building small compost piles but only if they’re heat treated.

I’m not good with telling the difference. Whats the tell sign?

A stamp indicating how they were treated.

Most if not all are heat treated. There are a lot of diffrent sizes and make up. There is also a large stack of cardboard? Toppers that came on them that maybe fablab can use to laser cut with?

The pallets made of individual boards is what I was thinking of for making compost bins if those are heat treated. The plywood ones looks nice and seem useful but too solid for compost bins.

I can confirm with you when i start loading them what ones you want and sizes. @Sherry. Or anyone else that has interest. Then i just need to know where to stack them outside that i can get the trailer nearby as im only 1 person.
On the subject of compost. If garden crew ever needs fescue grass clippings or leaves, i have a endless supply.

The blacktop area by the garden is trailer accessible, you can pull in/out off Mt Vernon on the fire access road by the creek and then around the building through the parking lot. I’ll be at work 8a-8p Wednesday but should be accessible by text I’ll PM you my #
