Yes the have many uses. It isn't pretty, but I use a couple for storing my garden tools. simply stood on end the work alot like a tall narrow bin, holding my rakes, hoe, shovels, ect.

@Sally Sunshine how do you take the pallets apart? My husband and I tried and they have those special nails in them that are twisty and spark when you hit them
(I have no idea what they are called and he just laughs at me when I describe them, those twisty sparky nails)

The fastest way to break down a pallet using a reciprocating saw or sawzall and many blades lol
