How to make a pallet pool step by step

The process of building a pallet pool can be a bit laborious, but it's not impossible. You just need some space and a few materials, as listed below:

  • 10 pallets
  • Sheets, towels and cloths
  • Screws, nails, drill and hammer
  • Two large polyethylene tarps
  • Strong adhesive tape
  • Ratchet strap to secure the structure.

With all this in hand, it is time to start production. Just follow these tips:

1. find a flat space for the project

After finding the ideal space for the pallet pool, line the floor with one of the tarps and add part of the pallets, securing them with nails and screws. It is important that they are firm and secure to each other.

2. lining the inside of the structure

Now, with the structure ready, line the inside with the towels, sheets, and cloths. To further reinforce the structure, use the ratchet straps to provide even more firmness.

3. distribute the tarpaulin inside the pool

Place the second tarp inside the pallet pool. Distribute it well so that it doesn't pile up in any corner.

4. framing the pool with panels

You can choose to "hide" the pallet structure with panels that also provide a more rustic look. Do this according to your style!

5. fill the pool with water

The most awaited part: adding water to the pool! When the water is added, it is important to watch and adjust the tarpaulin so that it is not stretched too much.

With this quick and practical tutorial, you have no more excuses for not having a pool in the garden. You can still choose different formats, models, with filter, with deck... All you need is the materials, skill and patience. Below, see 40 different pallet pool models for you to get inspired.
