I keep at least one good pallet for hauling bags of cement. The pallet keeps the cement from getting wet in the bed of my truck if it rains. I put a plastic cover over the whole thing.

The dogs also like laying on them.

I don't have pictures but I put Harbor Freight rolling wheel castors on a double sized pallet and use it for an oil change station. I put a piece of plywood on it. It holds drain pans and buckets, oil and empty buckets, oil cans, etc.

I can roll it where I need it, let used fliers drain and have a place to put full buckets of used oil until I can get rid of it. If the unit is in the way I can roll it away. If I want it closer I can roll it closer. Very convenient.
