NWPCA Proactive Proposal
A visual inspection should be conducted to assure recycled pallet components are dry and clean with no observable dirt, debris or animal droppings. If any dirt, debris, or animal droppings are detected, they should be removed.
Visible inspections should include examining pallets for protruding nails or other visible defects as needed.
