ABSTRACT:
A corrugated cardboard pallet usable either by itself or as the base member of a palletized container. The pallet includes a tray having side walls and a bottom wall; a plurality of blocks positioned within the tray proximate the side walls at spaced locations about the periphery of the side wall and each having a bottom face position on the bottom wall of the tray and an upper face lying in a common plane with the upper faces of other blocks; and a panel positioned within the side walls on top of the blocks. A plurality of flaps are provided in the side walls of the tray and the flaps, following placement of the panel within the side walls over the blocks, are folded upwardly and inwardly out of the side walls between adjacent blocks against the underface of the panel and secured to the underface of the panel. The flaps provide openings in the side walls for the entry of the tines of a material handling device and lock the side walls to the panel while retaining portions of the side walls in outwardly protecting relation to each block so as to discourage dislodgement of the blocks by material handling equipment.
