An apparatus configured to receive, store and transport windows and doors that is further operable to provide assistance in the installation process. The apparatus includes a frame having a floor support assembly and a floor member superposed thereon. A frame is integrally formed with the floor support assembly and extends upwards therefrom on three sides thereof. The frame consists of four vertical support members and a plurality of horizontal support members. The frame defines the receiving area of the apparatus. Hingedly attached securing members are present on the vertical support members and are operable to assist in the securing of the apparatus during transport. A plurality of tie-down loops are secured to the frame. The floor support assembly is configured to be operably coupled with forks of a forklift. The frame further includes joining members and grooves configured to mateably couple when the apparatus are vertically stacked.

A pallet stabilizer formed from a paperboard blank including a central panel having opposing first and second outer longitudinal sides, and opposing first and second lateral sides. At least one beam body is defined by a body flap formed integral with the central panel and comprises a plurality of flap panels connected in series at respective panel fold lines. Two of the flap panels define longitudinally extending opposing beam sides extending transverse to a plane defined by the central panel. One of the flap panels is located distal from the central panel and is hingedly connected to each of the two flap panels defining the beam sides. A glue tab is connected to one of the beam sides and is attached in overlapping relation on the central panel, and opposing longitudinal beam edges are spaced longitudinally inward from the opposing outer longitudinal sides of the central panel.

Containers and methods are disclosed for replacing expired or unserviceable aircraft emergency slides (slides) in an aircraft. The disclosed containers are configured to securely retain both unserviceable slides and serviceable slides. The containers can be placed on an aircraft through the main door of the aircraft, and are further configured to be easily transported within the aircraft from a staging area of the aircraft to a slide installation and removal point at either the main door or an emergency exit door of the aircraft. The containers can be aligned with the installation and removal point to facilitate replacing an unserviceable slide with a new, serviceable slide. The disclosed containers and methods improve personnel safety concerning lifting and handling of the slides, which are heavy. The containers and methods disclosed herein further facilitate positioning of the slides near installation and removal points and properly orienting the slides, while reducing awkward handling situations for personnel.
