What is a Shampoo Pallet?
A shampoo pallet is a bulk lot of assorted shampoo bottles, often from well-known brands, packed together on a pallet for wholesale or liquidation sale. These pallets can contain dozens or even hundreds of units, making them ideal for resellers, salons, barbershops, and beauty supply stores.
Shampoo pallets are typically sourced from:
- Overstock inventory from retailers
- Store returns (usually unopened)
- Shelf-pulls from major chains
- Discontinued product lines
Buying shampoo in pallet quantities allows you to get high-quality hair care products at a fraction of their retail price.
What’s Inside a Shampoo Pallet?
The exact contents vary, but a typical shampoo pallet might include:
- Salon-quality shampoos (Matrix, Redken, Paul Mitchell)
- Popular retail brands (Pantene, Dove, Garnier, Herbal Essences)
- Specialty shampoos (color-safe, anti-dandruff, volumizing, moisturizing)
- Conditioners and hair treatments
- Travel-size bottles for hotel or retail resale
Many pallets also come with matching conditioners, treatments, and styling products, giving you more variety for resale or personal use.
Benefits of Buying Shampoo Pallets
1. Huge Cost Savings
Shampoo pallets are sold at wholesale or liquidation prices—often 50% to 80% below retail value. This means you can stock up without breaking your budget.
2. Perfect for Reselling
If you sell on platforms like eBay, Amazon, Facebook Marketplace, or at flea markets, shampoo is an easy product to move. It’s a daily necessity, meaning demand is always high.
3. Ideal for Salons and Barbershops
Buying in bulk helps salon owners reduce costs while offering premium hair care products to their clients. It also allows you to resell professional-grade shampoos directly to customers for extra income.
4. Wide Variety in One Purchase
Mixed shampoo pallets often include multiple brands and formulas, giving buyers the ability to cater to different hair types and customer preferences.
Where to Buy Shampoo Pallets
Finding a trusted supplier is key to getting quality products. Popular sourcing options include:
- Wholesale liquidation companies specializing in beauty products
- Online marketplaces like Liquidation.com, DirectLiquidation, and B-Stock
- Local pallet liquidation warehouses
- Beauty supply distributors offering clearance stock
Always request a manifest (list of items) when available, and check expiration dates before purchasing.
