How to Make PATIO DECKING Using Free Wooden PALLET | Easy & Cheap DIY Terrace Deck

How to make patio decking using free wooden pallet? How about a decked area for your garden, either a highly professional looking deck created through a lot of precise cutting, sanding and hard work, one that that no one would know was made from pallets, or a more quirky, rustic style that shows the different and unique tones of the wood collected from multiple pallets.

Starting with a design and plan for what you want to achieve is the first step to getting that perfect deck. If you are going for quirky and unique, go for a selection of different pallets, ideally the same size, but in a range of colours, tones and woods. Pallet identification marks, stamps and writing on the timber can add to the character of the finished deck.
If large businesses are happy for you to take pallets, they may ask for a small token payment of a pound or so per pallet or may be happy for you to take them off their hands for free. A standard pallet is 40 x 48 inches (that’s roughly 100cm x 120cm) but there are many variations available that have been designed to suit different manufacturing purposes. But ultimately, pallets, also known as Skids, are designed with forklifts and pallet jacks in mind and make automated warehouses work to maximum efficiency. Pallets have played a massive role in the growth of transportation of goods over the last century and nearly 500 million new pallets are made every year and there can be anywhere up to three billion wood pallets in circulation within the European Union.

That deck looks great!😃👏🏾

[@KajunMs39]

Everything looked great until you started using high tech lumber tools; which I don't own. Can you provide another way to clean off those boards? Thank you

[@stevenreichertart]

It’s amazing! The stain takes it over the top!😊

This turned out beautifully!!! Great video!!! You have inspired me to do my own. Love the stain and the final setup.

[@seasonalbackyardplanter8253]

Oh man! That's a beautiful deck you have, there. Your video as inspired and assured me that pallets can make beautiful done decking.

Thank you very much!

Thank you. What an inspiration! Now we don't have to spend a lot of money. Thank you for this.

How would you do this with an level backyard?

[@alison1jane]

Beautiful work, thanks for showing the process of "harvesting" useable decking lengths from the pallets. I have been thinking how to do something similar for my tiny home. Question, though...it looks like some of the pallets are resting on dirt rather than gravel or cement? If so, my concern would be rotting after only a season or two. Did you address that & I missed it?

[@AbiaStos]

You are right! It’s better to support the corners of the pallets with blocks. You will need 1 block for each corner of each pallet. Determine the number of concrete blocks you will need. Dig a hole, at least twice as deep as the block. Add gravel and sand to the hole. Tamp it down firmly. Add the block to the hole and level. Level each block as you go. Lay down wood pallets on top of the blocks, being sure to lay the corners on top of the concrete blocks.

where did you buy the furniture

[@Kristensdecorations]

How many pallets do I need for a tent 3x3 meters

[@CarieSaad]

Staggering the boards would've looked waaaay better.

Nice job! Seating?

Step one, purchase thousands, if not 10s of thousands of pounds worth of tools and machinery. Step two gain years of experience in joinery. Amazing video but it highlights why people just pay to have it done. We all pay, one way or another, we all pay. 👍🏾

I had just a hand saw for $100 and a drill for $50 with all free pallet wood and built myself a boat last year. Dock floats I got for free of Facebook and neighbors on the lake watching me single handidly build this 10ft x 6ft pontoon couldn’t believe it and gifted me a vintage little electric motor and battery. Did end up staining some of it and put solar lights on but for under $200 I’ve got a boat. Been out on her more times than I can count, have had 7 people on it at once, and that was my first wood working project. If you really want to do something you can. Never discourage people from following their crazy project dreams. We all have to start somewhere and even if it took thousands of dollars worth of equipment (which it doesn’t) you save that money doing more than just one project.

There are two types of people in the world; those who like to do things themselves and those who don’t. Don’t discourage the first type just because you’re the second type. Anything can be done.

[@jcruiz49]

What is that furniture called?

[@b3arwithm3]

Looks good but sorry to say, it won't hold long. This low quality wood and not very thick and wont hold the weight of adults. Plus the brad nails are only for holding the board temporarily.

[@mozzaslowbudgetbuilds5993]

What about white ants

[@coryuser1]

Would the pallets rot being right ontop of the ground?

[@b3arwithm3]

Of course. Any wood. But Palette wood is the lowest quality and wont last long regardless where you use it.

@@christinacraig313 to me palette wood is just thrash. I won't even keep it for a month. It is not structurally sound. If it doesn't crack, it will bend and warp in no time.

[@scoobysean555]

Easy cheap .......right get a woodshop first then I'm all set for the cheap project .........only thing cheap is the pallets the equipment you used is not cheap at all ......now if you hand sanded each piece I'd give you credit but not on this 1 buddy ....Shame on you 😢
