ABSTRACT:
A pallet for supporting liquid-containing industrial drums during storage and transportation and having the ability to collect and contain liquid leaked or otherwise spilled from the supported industrial drums includes a platform for supporting the industrial drums, and a basin beneath the platform for collecting the spilled liquid, the platform and the basin being rotationally molded of a synthetic polymeric material so as to be unitary with one another, the platform having an undulate cross-sectional configuration including a plurality of upper crests and lower troughs between the crests establishing a reinforcing support structure of predetermined area for receiving the industrial drums on the platform, the basin including a reservoir located beneath the platform, and a plurality of holes passing through the platform and communicating with the reservoir, the holes being located in the troughs such that the spilled liquid will drain into the troughs and then through the holes to enter the reservoir for containment within the basin of the pallet.
