ABSTRACT:
A reusable plastic base serves as a pallet which may be lifted by the forks of a forklift truck. A sleeve is removably attached to the base and forms the sidewalls of the container. In the preferred embodiment, the sleeve is made of corrugated material having slots formed along its lower edge. The slots are adapted to coact with latch members slidably mounted in the base to releasably secure the pallet to the sleeve. The base is preferably designed with a peripheral groove lying substantially at floor level to receive the edge of the sleeve. Compressive loads applied to the container are transferred to the sleeve directly to the floor, thereby minimizing deformation of peripheral portions of the base.
