Best Answer

I would say so, especially since it is believed that 90% of all pallets are made of wood. Wooden pallets are cheap and they don't last forever. Damaged pallets are oftentimes reconditioned and, if they can't be, they can be turned into wood chips for things like mulch and animal bedding.
