ABSTRACT:
A reusable skid for moving heavy bulk materials comprising a platform and a plurality of shock-absorbing skid feet. The platform, in its preferred embodiment, comprises a plurality of longitudinal and transverse beams forming an upper surface for mounting bulk materials. The preferred embodiment of the skid feet have leg members that are slidably mounted to the longitudinal beams. The skid feet also have elastomeric springs mounted between a spring base in the leg members that bias the longitudinal beams in an upward position at rest, and are compressed when bulk materials are placed on the skid, thereby cushioning the forces on the platform and the skid feet. The skid feet may easily be removed and replaced.
