A packaged article is composed of a bulk bag having a top end and a bottom end. Further included is a pallet having a first side and a second side. Also included are an outer bag having a first closed end and a first open end and a heatshrink bag having a second closed end and a second open end. The first closed end of the outer bag is between the bottom end of the bulk bag and the first side of the pallet. The first open end of the outer bag is gathered over the top end of the bulk bag to enclose the bulk bag within the outer bag. The second closed end of the heatshrink bag is proximate to the top end of the bulk bag and the second open end contacts the second side of the pallet.

Adjustable pallets are provided which include a deck to support a product for shipping. The deck is selectively positionable in a raised position, as a horizontal support surface for the product, and in a lowered position, closer, at least in part, to a floor to facilitate loading the product on or unloading the product from the pallet. Further, the adjustable pallet includes a movable support, the movable support includes an inclined plane. The deck rests on the movable support in the raised position, and the deck traverses, at least in part, the inclined plane of the movable support when the deck is transitioned between the raised position and the lowered position.

A pallet having a deck with a generally planar upper surface with a peripheral edge defining a first area, and a ground engaging structure connected to the deck is provided. A mechanism is connected to the pallet and is moveable from a stowed position to a deployed position. When in the deployed position, a portion of the mechanism defines an overhang area adjacent the first area to increase a total support area of the pallet.

A pallet includes an upper deck including an upper support surface having a plurality of elongated recesses formed therein. A plurality of feet are below the upper deck. A plurality of runners connect lower portions of the plurality of feet. The plurality of runners are configured to be receivable in the plurality of elongated recesses formed in the upper surface of the upper deck of an identical pallet.

The present invention provides a pallet having a deck with a generally planar upper surface with a peripheral edge defining a first area, and a ground engaging structure connected to the deck. A mechanism is connected to the pallet and is moveable from a stowed position to a deployed position. When in the deployed position, a portion of the mechanism defines an overhang area adjacent the first area to increase a total support area of the pallet.

A pallet attachment is disclosed. The pallet attachment is used to interconnect a universal cargo pallet with an accessory. The pallet attachment includes a first body portion having at least one shoulder bolt recess, each of which has a flat bottom surface and a hole for receiving a shoulder bolt. The pallet attachment further includes a step-down second body portion having a plurality of attachment holes. When in use, the first body portion is placed on top of rails of the universal cargo pallet and is secured to the top of the rails by engaging at least one tie-down ring of the universal cargo pallet with the at least one should bolt of the pallet attachment. The attachment holes are used to receiving attachment elements of the accessory.
