ABSTRACT:
A pallet comprising a lower member and an upper member. The lower member includes a base, a plurality of protrusions extending upwardly from the base, and a plurality of holding fingers extending laterally from the protrusions. The upper member is configured for attachment to the lower member. The upper member includes a deck and a plurality of legs extending down from the deck. Each leg has at least one side wall and a notch in the side wall engageable with one of the laterally extending holding fingers of the lower member. The legs are sized and configured to space the deck of the upper member above the base of the lower member when the upper member is attached to the lower member to define tine-receiving channels between the deck and base for receiving the tines of a fork-lift truck. The upper and lower members are configured so that when the upper member is attached to the lower member, then the laterally extending holding fingers engage the notches in the leg side walls of the upper member to secure the upper member to the lower member.
