Which sentence is best
aThere will be a number of pallets for you to place product on that you no longer want stored.
b There will be a number of pallets for you on which to place product that you no longer want stored.
c There will be a number of pallets on which you can place product you no longer want stored.
Do you think all are clear enough and none is better than the other? I don't like b.
Cheers

Hi, None of these is terrible. I'm more concerned with the unidiomatic use of the term 'product'. I don't know your context, but it sounds like the natural term would be 'product s '.

Depends how formal you are trying to be. You need to say products and I suggest any products.
