Has anyone investigated if these said pallets have been heat treated for international shipping ( ISPM 15 )
I'd read the article at Steve's link, How the Humble Wooden Pallet Paralyzed Big Pharma and Now Faces Extinction - CBS News , before I realized "Big Pharma" meant large pharmaceutical companies rather than those nasty little "piranha" fish that live in South America. There must be something to this dyslexia business after all.

Have we examined the dimension of the pallets, their construction method and wood type used (assuming they are wood!)? These important clues could help lead us at least to the source if not the purpose. Just trying to help out here...
Information on the pallets themselves may be useful. For example, an "alienist" theory might predict that the pallets are made from materials that are of extraterrestrial origin; i.e., the theory makes a prediction that is falsifiable. Evidence that the pallets are of terrestrial origin would prove the theory false.

this oklahoma property has a name:It appears that the entering 34.521936, -97.896224 into Google maps would bring you to the right spot. The field of pallets looks almost like I would expect to see from someone who was growing trees and wanted to protect them from largish animals (deer?).

So now we're dealing with theft? Or is this some sort of new edict from our alien overlords? First, strange pallets appear in New Jersey, then the abduction or downright elimination of the number 5. This is getting stranger by the day.5. There is no Number 5.
this oklahoma property has a name:
east elk pallet farm,
kitty corner to the property is also a "christmas tree farm"
and older satellite pics show less development in the field of pallets.
the elk ave did have a limited street view, and guess what, pallets.
maybe this place is the mother ship, and the ones in jersey are scouts looking
for a place to expand, as they have pretty much filled the field in oklahoma.....
oh and just to the east of this pallet farm are a couple of new beautiful homes!
Excellent information -- thanks for posting.
Looking at the satellite photos, there appear to be numerous "junk piles." But as they say, "One man's junk is another man's treasure."
