Well, you hit a million views... You now need to buy an entire truck's worth of returns.
Yeah SEND ITTTTTT
Lock Picking Lawyer here and today I show you how I can open John Malecki's safe with a pair of Shop Shades in under 3 minutes...
Cap
This is the collaboration we need, but don’t deserve!
@@nointro nor will we ever get it.
I cannot watch this crap.. He's a STEELERS FAN!!! WHO DEY!
Nice click out of one, two is binding and there we have it
The STRAPS!!!!
The straps were supposed to go back on the trucks to the warehouse. They shipped them back in a return box which is supposed to hold small RTV (Return To Vendor)items.
The straps are not return items. As a former HD receiving associate I am still laughing about that and the number of emails I have read from corp. requesting the return of the truck straps. We now know where some of them have ended up.
LMAOOOOOOO
Where can I buy these pallets?
That’s amazing
We have noticed we have not been receiving many strap returns, we cannot continue to secure your loads without the straps. After you have half filled a orange strip box please return straps promptly.
@@skyth7474 As you know the straps should be campus shipped using UPS to avoid this sort of thing.
Joe needs to buy all return pallets. Period.
he probably will
You would only say that until a pallet from Lover's Lane shows up for auction.
I’m going to personally watch this video 1 MILLION TIMES!!!!! I wanna see you unpack a litteral truck load of items.
I'm just leaving it playing on my phone while I do other stuff 😂
It's gotten 8 thousand views in the 23 minutes and 49 seconds it took me to watch it. That's over 200 days before it hits a million. I've got four devices plus my phone. I'll do what I can.

8-11-24. 1 MILLION views!!!! We need the truckload….
The funny thing is, I'm a truck driver and currently I have a truck load (30 pallets) of home depot returns. I'm taking them to a home depot returns facility so they can get sorted, restacked on pallets, and sold at auction.
As a former employee of Home Depot, sometimes we would RTV or "Return To Vender" items that were just returned for unexpected reasons with the item completely unused or displays when new items came out. The Spax screws were more than likely put in the Husky tool box by receiving before being sent out because Spax was dropped by Home Depot.
Spax was dropped? When? They sure seem to be slow to sell out the existing stock.
@JBLewis At least at the store I worked at Spax was dropped and was replaced by Timberlok. According to the Spax rep Home Depot dropped Spax entirely, but when I was there no ever really bought Spax
@@watchyourr6172 That really is interesting. Menard's carries a larger assortment of Spax products but I tend to end up at the big orange box more than the big green one. When it comes to wood screws / construction screws, Spax is my first choice. They don't split the wood, they don't break off, and most of the time you don't have to pre-drill.
@@JBLewis Same. I used to use exclusively Spax and it was a huge disappointment to see HD get rid of them. I don't think I ever pre-drilled a hole for a Spax screw. HD is my closest Home Improvement store. The GRK screws are fairly comparable but the options are so limited at my store and most of them seem to be geared toward cabinetry versus GP use.
I was in one local HD and they were clearancing out all Spax, but another local store was not
Babe wake up John bought another pallet!!
Me "babe leave me alone for half hour, I GOTTA see this! Get your mum to pick the kids up" 😂
I had the wife bring the MiL to the airport so I could watch this. Today is going to be a good day.
... and then your right hand sprung into life!
What's with all these partners sleeping so much?
I find it odd that this mysterious person is always asleep.
I see one million views. Time for you to start searching for that truck load to buy🤣
The stock taking company I worked for had a neat trick for counting hardware you weigh the total and weigh single screw/bolt and do the math when counting millions saves you hours
Those husky tough boxes are pretty solid. We use them in my unit, it makes a good range box and they’ve been beaten to hell, dropped out of aircraft, and filled with all sorts of nefarious tools and they still work fine after years of abuse at the hands of my platoon everywhere from Iraq to Bulgaria to NC.
Nefarious tools 😭
For anyone wondering.
Home Depot associates (literally any associate) can RTV (return to vendor) practically anything in the store. We’ve RTV’d shit before just cause the box looked bad and we get credit for the RTV. So in the instance of the ryobi packout, they likely RTV’d that to get rid of it cause they didn’t have anywhere to put it and didn’t want to deal with it. Same probably happened with the Milwaukee levelers since Milwaukee always gives credit to RTVing their tools.
Although I would say a good portion of rtvs come from returns.
1.2 million views. Where’s the TRUCKLOAD!!!!!????
So where is the contest on viewers guessing how many screws are in the bin for a laser level :) hahaha
Imma guess 512 let me know how I did.
673 is my guess
its 4
429
137
for the cart with wheels some cut down 1x4s on the sides of the bottom will help prevent it from buckling since it's already been bent in. I did some thinner 2x2 angle iron nut and bolted on my old one. stiffened it right up.
Truck load??
You got to do Tractor Supply I work at one and we will literally take back anything even things we don’t sell.
Home Depot used to do that until they found it was costing them millions of dollars
Those straps are how they strap down pallets in the back of the dry van trailers. It was definitely put on there by accident. They're normally at the shippers. They'll secure the load and the seal the doors. I'm a truck driver and that's what we use
You need to buy a Menards truck!! That would be freaking epic!!!
Get a Menard's pallet next!!Let's GOOOOOO!!😂😂
Those are D-backed hand carts which are great for couriers becuase they lay level for loading... Don't stack, load laying down and lift up...👍👍
When is the truck loaded coming
Yes toe straps are usable in bike tires keeps the thorns from getting in and cutting your tubes!!! So there is another use for toe straps besides towing a car!!
Weigh 10 screws, then weigh the whole lot and do some math.
Appreciate the fact that these vids have little to no fluff and other time consumeng BS! What are all the empty compartments in the laser level box for?
Weigh 10 different screws and get the avg. Weigh all the screws all together and there's your screw count give or take a few.
Edit:
I worked at a hardware store and seen Hillman reps do the inventory like this.
used to use a similar method to count stacks of cardboard. see how many is in an inch then measure the height of the stack
We always do that when we do inventory. Our scales even have a function for it so you don't have to calculate anything.
DAMMIT I WAS LATE! 😂🤣 Just commented the same (Except I said 20 because depending on the scale)
They have to be sorted first. It’s a few different types. At that point, you could quickly just count each stack.
ah! you beat me to it.
Those straps can still be used because they sell standalone brackets that those hook into. Brackets pretty simple so you could make small individual ones and just hook them onto places and pop them off when not needed.
15:31 the little thing is part of the locking bar that is supposed to swing down to let you lock the drawers shut, those were the things you called the "extra slides"
You can buy logistics strap clips that you can weld or clip on places for those. Love those straps
The energy when you guys are opening good pallets is off the chain. 😂 everyone is just super happy
Thanks for getting right into it without all of the pre-video mumbo jumbo that I see on most videos out there.
I can guarantee you those laser levels were stolen from one HD and returned to another HD...It's a commonscam.
Don't you have to return it together with your purchase ticket ??
@@JoineeJoan Most stores will take returns without a receipt and give you store credit if you ask for a manager.
Some horse girl will snatch that Husky box, they love that stuff for tack storage.
Absolute must on buying a return truck load✅
Yup cheap vs expensive beginner to pro tool boxes.... Like a tool box for just a random home owner to a tool box for the guy who fixes everything! ❤❤
just as an aside, a safe isnt just to prevent theft, most of them are actually more to protect documents and such from fire damage, the (easy) theft prevention is just a bonus ;)
If they're fire rated.
You can bolt them to the floor.
Safe's are a theft deterrent. Fireproofed metal cabinets are to protect from fire.
The fact that some safe's work as a fire-proofing is the bonus here, not the vice versa. That is why safe's are rated by the time it takes a professional safe cracker to get into it, and not the duration of fire exposure they protect from.
That being said, this safe wouldn't even protect from fire that well, probably. I mean, it has plastic and even a BATTERY totally exposed in front. In a fire the battery will turn into a bomb.
No matter what, an unwieldy safe that weights a bit is harder to steal than the money/jewelery/documents/whatever inside it would be. That's why a safe, even if technically can be taken by the thief, is still protective. Because a safe NEVER is meant to prevent theft. It always was and always will be meant to give time for guards/police to get to catch the thief before they manage to get to the inside. If your only method of protection is a safe...you're doing it wrong.
I have a fire rated safe specifically for important documents, but they're usually only rated like 30-60 minutes if they're not super expensive. But I like to use my other safe to keep stuff out of my kids hands that I don't want them to touch or know about.
Once the safe is damaged, the fire rating goes to zero
now we ve a one millón views... Buy the f@#$ truk
The trailer straps are for home depots in system shipping.
For the screws, count maybe 20-50, and weigh. Then weigh them all and do the math.
Me too with the fasteners.
It's harder and harder to find good quality ones.
Find a Menards return pallet, they’re have some crazy stuff
I'm kinda pissed off......I just found this channel recently....I have now been binge watching everything.....Its amazing!
Working at home Depot, the discounted and damaged stuff were damaged in store or shipping and likely not sold to customers, the stuff with RLC tags are more then likely customer returns
For counting screws … get a scale throw a handful on the scale …then count those screws. Scale measured hand full was say twenty screws and they weighed 1 pound . At that point weigh all the screws at once extrapolate the weight by twenty screws ..1 pound = 20 screws 2 pounds = 40 screws.etc…
Former HD employee here with their MET team.
First, the straps... I know those straps were supposed to go back to the transport/warehouse/vendor. Those are used in nearly every shipping container to keep stuff from toppling over.
Secondly, some of those cabinets and tool boxes were probably display models that had their "effectiveness" used up. (ie. they were beat up enough that customers were dissuaded into not buying because they look cheap with damage on them. Once a display model was deemed "too beat up", MET (Merchandise Execution Team) would markdown (Remove from inventory) the damaged item. There were guidelines on what was supposed to happen to the damaged item. Some of the items would get returned to vendor and some were just tossed into the trash.
Third, The laser levels. This is the CRAZIEST thing... Those laser levels were probably sent back to vendor because *drum roll* the PACKAGING was updated. I cannot tell you the number of items that were pulled from shelves and either trashed or sent back to vendor to update the packaging. In some very rare instances, inventory would show that a store had "x" amount of the product being updated/replaced. MET would look for the item(s) in their proper locations (where inventory shows they are located on shelves), in the overheads in the surrounding area and in receiving. If we could not find it, it was notated. On some occasions the item would turn up (usually someone had attempted to steal the item and Loss Prevention stopped the theft but forgot to return it to where it belonged and was sitting in the corner of the security office) but usually, it was part of "shrinkage" (loss via theft, damage, store use).
This is such a good comment and the fact your username is Butters make it 1000x better! This is awesome, thank you!
@JohnMaleckiUnscrewed don't thank me, thank the algorithm that brought us together.
Also, those husky bags are pretty durable
Keep the straps an buy the clip mounts from harbor freight and weld them to post around the shop to hold plywood and other things of that sort
1.2 M, is the truckload video up yet?
1.3 M veiws now, no truckload yet
You were lucky. I paid full price for the returned tool I bought. Seems they often just stuff them back in the box and return them to the shelf. Opened mine at home and cord was untied and the guarantee papers were missing. Next time I’ll open it in the store.
Hey John, if you're not going to use those E-track ratchet straps, our High School marching band could sure use them!
The one thing that got me excited was the drawer full of lag bolts...😂
We use that Husky job box for my son's toy box. I told my wife I finally found my perfect job, opening pallets of returned tools from all my favorite stores LOL
so estimating what you could sell them for is actually very different from the price you actually sell them for.
What's the total after you sold them(if you could actually sell them) ;)
We want the truckload!!!
I have one of those safes and it’s great. The trick is to bolt into studs. Then when it’s locked there is no access to the lags
The "safe" isn't to prevent theft. It's to prevent important documents from being destroyed if you have a house fire. So it doesn't matter if it's small enough to pick up and carry away.
And to keep children from getting into your stuff.
and that is why it was dumped, the damaged corner compromises the fire and heat protection.
There’s no way that safe has any sort of fire rating that will protect anything in a house fire. That’s a lockable burn box in that respect
You don't have to count the screws. If they are all the same, just weigh one and after all of them. Then you divide by the weight of the first screw and you have the amount.
where do you buy the return pallets from?
I think you should do Menards next. Not sure if they have them in PA but they are the favored big box tool and lumber store in Minnesota and they are way better than Home Depot.
6:56 fun fact: In Europe you can't buy just one or two return pallets.
It's either 4 pallets or truckload (32 pallets) and those cost about 5-30k€
Depends on the country I guess, you can definitely buy single pallets in Ireland and the UK as ive seen ones for sale from Argos and the range from time to time.
We don't care about what happens in Europe
Gotta do a MENARDS pallet. GL with shipping.
Truckload here we comeeee!!!!!
If you have a scale weight one screw then dump all of them in a box to weigh them together. Quickest way to count something like that if you dont want to count them individually
I work at HD... These are RTV pallets... So yes, returns. Also, those US Cargo Control straps are usually meant to be sent back on the returns pallets so the Reverse Logistics Center (RLC) can ship them back to our DCs for the trucks
I work at some Home Depots in California and those bolts are all more than $1 a pop. The shortest ones they make are still at least 90¢+ and those looked to be longer ones.
To the right person that drawer is a small jackpot.
😄👍
Hilarious! It's like Christmas as a 9 year old... but by proxy. Thanks for a great start to the day.
I just ordered that EXACT safe… several websites listed it as the best. I’m looking forward to using it
Lol about those ratchet straps..lol when we receive our loads in the store we set them aside and box them..when the box is full they usually either ups or send them in a return trailer lol..interesting accidental freebie lol
Yep, my understanding is they were shipped back via UPS to the RDC, regardless it means the RLC never opened the pallet
@jaykoerner probably..lol well atleast my island of misfit toys are serving good purpose lol
Lol…lol!
What site are these guys buying from that is reputable? I would like to see about this tbh. Would like to get Milwaukee's and getting a ton of extra crap sounds like a fun surprise as long as I get most of what I want. lol
John, you are now the dolly lama of Pittsburgh. LMAO
Solid joke
Nice!
Shop so clean looks like an infomercial set.
400k views in 24 hours better start looking for truck loads😂
Thoroughly convinced they saw the address for shipping and made sure to make it good so more people buy them
1 week before this video was posted, i just purchased about 17 pallets from home depot return product. This is a wonderful way to renovate a home or stock up on tools. I got enough tile and flooring to re floor my entire home, garage and outbuilding... for just slightly more then he payed for this video.
Where do you get them from?
Should buy the whole 53 foot trailer for 15 to 20k over 15000 pieces of inventory
Can’t wait to watch John unbox 74 hole saws
If you can get a hold of a return pallet from Menards, that might be worth something. They're just across the border in OH, so maybe, possibly??
Cmon, algorithm! Get this to 1M views! John needs a semi truck of returns
Just here to say we got the 1 million views now...
Just weigh the screws so you don't need to find someone who can count.
Truck drivers use T-track straps all the time on the inside of their trailers....I woulda loved that box!
Tell me you never tow anything without telling me you never tow anything... Curt Manufacturing 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
i think john might be buying a "truck" load of things, because that view count is at 600k+ in only 7 days.
Looking forward to that truckload video now that this video has a million views 😅
Weigh 20 lag bolts then weigh them all,
count smarter unless paid hourly
I Love John Malecki Unscrewed Videos
Oh I have one of those husky storage boxes on wheels, it's pretty great. Had it for ~8 years outside exposed to the elements and it's held up fine.
Damn now I wanna jump on the pallet return lotto.
Do the cheap vs expensive tool boxes and bags
That box of straps are the straps our distribution center uses for their trucks to the stores. I assume someone sent them to the repairs and liquidation center were returns are sent instead of shipping them back to the distribution center as we are supposed to
The bearings on those hand truck wheels are almost always crap, but there are good bearings available if you know the right part number.
Definitely do the toolbox comparison! And you should buy a pallet from like an Agway if you can.
Absolutely we need to see if those snap on boxes are truly with the extra $50,000
I have that 24" top box the one that is 138, I bought it 5 years ago and had coupons. I bought it and the 5 drawer bottom for around 200 bucks cause the combo was on sale and the coupons. its lasted perfect and still works great.
We need to know sooner if Sam gets the laser, can’t wait for the next video 😩
I'm a month away from pulling the trigger on a larger tool box, one of the big old mechanic sized ones. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a video on cheap vs expensive Tool chests!!!
Those straps are not supposed be on that pallet, thats home Depot store use and is supposed to be shipped back via USPS to the RDC warehouse, receiving accidentally put them on the RLC pallet(reverse logistics center)
The shit I see Sam do in these... I love it lol. Did Chris just say he's proud?!?!? LOL
You could build a cabinet for the safe....cover the dent
My mom wants a shirtless Chris episode 🌟
I prefer a Sam one.
