ABSTRACT:
A plastic pallet includes a substantially rectangular platform section having an upper surface and four side walls depending therefrom. The pallet also includes a lower support section for suspending the platform section a predetermined distance above the ground. The support section includes four edges each having an inwardly angled portion and a vertical portion. A first pair of channels extend from a first edge to an opposing second edge. A second pair of channels extend from a third edge to an opposing fourth edge, each channel dimensioned to receive a forklift blade. The support structure also includes two sets of slots, each set substantially perpendicular to the other and extending from one edge of the support section to an opposing edge for receiving binding straps to restrain items resting on the pallet. The slots are disposed above the channels and are segregated such that the straps do not interfere with the forklift blades or each other.
