    Jeez....i'll never look at a pallet the same way again.

    Never realised there was such a story behind them.

    Interesting.....

    A bit of a shame that the meaning behind the CHEP was not included. Commonwealth Handling Equipment Pool. It was originally a government enterprise.

    Reminds me of this article.

    It could be an easy trap to fall into, if only you weren't in the logistics/retail/distribution business, meaning you should have knowledge of the need to pay your pallet hire....
