They were two 4'x4' ones, I think 18" tall. My mom used one for flowers and one for 3 different varieties of tomatoes. Seemed to work fine.
Bi-Mart is a local chain store, I think the nearest one to you is in Oregon City.
Are looking for them for landscaping? Veggies? You have wild deer or rabbits?
The aluminum water troughs are good to use for vegetable beds if you have animals that want to eat what you're growing or if water is scarce.

I have a bi-mart card!
Mostly for veggies. Tomatoes, cucumbers, zuccinni(man I love the wife's zuccinni bread). I'm looking for solid wall types to avoid weed infiltration. I had built some cinderblock styles ones at my last home ,and though I lined it, we still had issues with weeds growing. We would prefer raised higher the better to avoid bending over, having to get on our knees alot, if possible.
DAMMIT, WHY DID YOU TELL HIM?!?!Just be careful, some pallets are treated with chemicals, you wouldn't want to use those

Thinking about doing it myself just like this. I think these look nice.

Looks like you need a barn to do that.
I'm shopping for a few raised garden beds. 6'-8' L x 2'-3' W x 24" T(min).
Anyone buy any in the last year or so you are happy with? sooo many options online.
I've had bad luck with raised beds. Your climate is better for raised beds than mine. However....something to keep in mind....
All climates will require you to water the raised bed more often than a ground level bed. Raised beds dry out faster in all weather, especially on hot days.
Instead of raised beds, as soon as the snow is gone, I now cover the ground with a clear plastic to warm the ground up to get a longer growing season. Black plastic does not heat up the ground as deep as clear plastic.
You can solve all of those problems by getting a grow light and using your bathtub as a garden bed.
Where will keep his catch of the day if he does that?
Why bother with a garden box in this case, just use the bathtub for the catch of the day and grow kelp.Line the garden box with plastic and fill it with ice and water.

If I install grow lights, I wont be growing vegetables! lol
Silly goose, you can't grow meth.
Cocaine on the other hand...
Cleared a lot of ground, no easy task. Hands and shoulders are aching. Put in peas, carrots, celery, parsley, cauliflower, beets, chard, lettuce, kale, bok choy.
My meth garden is in full bloom!
