A tire-wheel transport pallet having engaging parts engaging the lower circumferential edge section of the rims of a plurality of tire wheels, and a mounting surface on which the tire wheels lying sideways are arranged; a partition plate prevents a horizontal positional shift, and interposed between an upper and a lower level of the tire wheels, which are stacked on the mounting surface in a plurality of levels; a lid covering the uppermost level of the tire wheels, and having, on its bottom surface, a plurality of wheel-position-determining concavities engaging the upper circumferential edge section of the rims of the tire wheels. Furthermore, the bottom surface of the pallet has a plurality of legs projecting downward, and the top surface of the lid has a plurality of leg-position-determining concavities corresponding to the plurality of legs on the pallet, so to stack a plurality of units.

A shipping pallet arrangement includes a first pallet having a first underdeck opening to a first storage volume under a top deck, said top deck supporting goods for transport; and a first underdeck container holding goods and received within the first storage volume. A method for shipping goods in a transport container includes positioning a first pallet in the transport container, the first pallet having a first underdeck opening to a first storage volume under a top deck having goods thereon; storing goods within a first underdeck container; after the step of storing and the step of positioning, receiving the first underdeck container at least partially within the first storage volume; and after the step of receiving, shipping the transport container.

An apparatus for displaying palleted items arranged on a stack of pallets includes a generally flat main panel under the palleted items, having flaps with the palleted items positioned along fold lines, and with separable side panels configured to engage the flaps at the fold lines. When folded away from the palleted items and engaged together, the side panels securely hide the stack of multiple pallets under the palleted items, and present printed sides for advertising.

Portable skid assemblies are shown and disclosed. In some embodiments, the portable skid assemblies include a frame having two or more pockets sized to receive the fork of a forklift, telehandler, or pallet jack. The portable skid assemblies additionally include a support assembly having a base attached to the frame and at least one support member that moves vertically relative to the base between a retracted position suitable for at least one of storage or transport, and an extended position where the skid assembly is configured to communicate wireless signals.

An assemblable metal pallet having two plinths each provided with a cut-out and with a loading platform and a plurality of components obtained from a single piece of a basic metal profile having a symmetrical shape about the longitudinal central plane and provided with a longitudinal rib of rectangular cross-section and constant height extending from one and the same part with respect to a base plane, and with two outer lateral webs having their edge bent inwards and at least partly coplanar with the top of the rib, the components including a first component composed of a piece of basic profile bent to a C-shape with the aperture facing upwards, a second component composed of a piece of the same basic profile bent to an inverted U-shape, a further component formed from a piece of the same basic profile and constituting a crosspiece for connecting together the plinths.

Resin pallets having a deck and a base, where the deck and base are joined by an interlock, which is optionally reversible, are described. Methods of making such pallets by assembling the pallets by interlocking parts to form the pallets, in an optionally reversible method, are also described.

A pallet including a pallet deck supported along a base plane. The pallet deck defines a load support surface within a given perimeter. The load support surface includes at least a tapered portion which tapers in increasing height relative to the base plane from a tapered portion inner perimeter to a tapered portion outer perimeter such that the load support surface has a concave configuration.

A buffer member has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other. There is a buffer structure located on the first surface, and there is a slant located on the second surface for guiding a movement of an object relative to the buffer member. A package including the buffer member is provided therein.

An improved cart and pallet system and an improved compactly stackable pallet for use in the system are disclosed. The improved pallet has a central support extending beneath the pallet with channels on either side of the support. The support and channels are engaged by a ledged, generally U-shaped deck of a cart or pallet truck of the application.
