ABSTRACT:
An interlocking pallet assembly for containing an arrangement of components within a shipping container is disclosed. The shipping container includes a first pallet having a plurality of compartments for containing a plurality of components, at least one of the components including a vertical member which extends above the surface of the first pallet, and a second pallet having a plurality of compartments for containing a plurality of components, and at least one aperture for receiving the vertical member associated with the first pallet through a bottom portion thereof. The first and second pallets are similarly dimensioned so that when the second pallet is disposed on the first pallet, the vertical member aligns with and engages the aperture formed in the second pallet thereby forming an interlocking mechanism for preventing movement of the second pallet relative to the first pallet.
