Euro pallets I’m aware that are usually pressure treated to prevent rot. I know some are not treated at all.
But it is simply difficult to get pallets where I live lately. Unless they are completely broken, businesses don’t discard it (which is not bad by itself; less waste) but they won’t even sell them.
You’re thinking about possible run-offs from cargo or chemicals from treating the wood?
Both. Unless it’s a brand new single used pallet, you don’t know that a pool chemical didn’t spill on it at Walmart.
They are also treated to prevent rotting.
