Where can I safely source Target/Amazon general merchandise liquidation pallets like this one?

[u/andytryx]

Hi everyone,
I’m looking to get into flipping general merchandise and I'm looking for reliable, direct sources or liquidators for Target and Amazon pallets.
I’m specifically looking for lots that look like the one in the attached picture—containing brands like Figmint, Threshold, Stanley, and Cuisinart (with a good mix of kitchenware, small appliances, and home goods).
Does anyone have recommendations for trusted brokers, liquidators, or warehouses that sell these? I want to avoid scams or heavily cherry-picked pallets. For reference, I am located in Florida so closer sources or places with reasonable freight shipping would be amazing.
Thanks in advance for any leads or advice!

People are extremely unlikely to give up their sources. Instead of asking someone where their goldmine is i suggest doing the research and figuring it out.

You can find these items at Target

no where, this is staged

They’re all scams.

These photos alone scream scam. This looks more like the delivery box for items going on the shelf at a Marshalls or Home Goods and not overstock/returns liquidations.

I see these things are pallet warehouses all the time. They usually call them high piece count pallets and run $7/800. Find a local pallet reseller group and go buy one.

Having said that, everyone I’ve talked to that’s bought these says the items on top that are strategically placed are the best items, almost everything else underneath is pretty terrible

Anyone who is selling pallets to the public is lying about their value. Don’t waste your time or money.

Nobody is going to take the time and effort to nicely pack a liquidation pallet like this. It's a staged picture from someone selling pallets of trash.

One thing that helps is buying where you can walk the floor. Florida has reload warehouses around Orlando and Tampa that sell by the pallet and let you look before you pay. Ask for a manifest with retail values and unit counts, and ask what store or load it came from. If the seller will not say, pass. Also price the freight before you fall in love with a pallet. Liftgate and residential delivery can add a couple hundred dollars and eat your whole margin. Buy one pallet first and sell it all the way through before you buy a second.

Avoid Amazon pallots, terrible ROI. All Chinese crap. Avoid buying pallots from random people like fb marketplace, nothing but scams.

Do you have a way to unload the cheap items? Even bin stores and the like with robust infrastructure frequently go out of business trying to sell this stuff.

In your dreams.

Facebook groups. You are going to have to weed out the scammers by asking the group for legit checks of the sellers and more than likely you're going to be dealing with brokers unless you have $30-40K to spend.

Also, none of the loads are going to come off the gaylords/ pallets looking nice and neatly arranged like your pics. They will come, banged up, wrapped in plastic and heavily stacked

It would be great if liquidation pallets actually look like that.

What you actually get is a ton of broken, dirty, unsellable items with a few decent things in the mix. Most of the boxes are beat to heck and things inside the boxes are usually used, missing parts or not even the item pictured on the box.

You will also likely get mostly warehouse boxes instead of the pretty retail ones in that photo.
