ABSTRACT:
Apparatus comprising a slanted rack on a pallet with enclosed forklift tine channels accessible from both sides and ends of the pallet; side frames providing stackability, with partial movability to allow unobstructed access during loading and unloading of glass; a slanted, cushioned rack to place and keep stored glass on a tilt to avoid glass falling forward affixed to the pallet; and dually adjustable straps with storable, cushioned front supports sensitively to affix side-stacked glass to the pallet and rack for safe transportation. Other embodiments may include detachable connections between the side frames and the slanted rack to the pallet that allows such frames and rack to be completely disassembled and placed flat on the surface of the pallet for return shipment. End plates for use with standard packaging material, walk-in capability for the pallet, complete collapsibility for return shipment, and stepping plates on the pallet for "pickers" are provided in alternate embodiments.
