ABSTRACT:
A pallet for a wheeled item comprises a base frame having openings for receiving forklift arms, a plurality of tracks mounted on the base frame for receiving the wheels of the item, and a plurality of ramps mounted on the base frame and sloping from the tracks toward the base frame so that when the wheeled item is shifted on the wheels from the tracks along the ramps, the undercarriage of the wheeled item comes to rest on the pallet. Wheeled items can be quickly loaded and secured on the pallet and can be manipulated with a forklift for storing wheeled items in stacked relation. The pallet can be designed to store wheeled items with aligned or offset casters.
