A '''Pallet''', sometimes called [[Skids]], is a flat transport structure that supports goods in a stable fashion while being lifted by a forklift, pallet jack, front loader or other jacking device. A pallet is the structural foundation of a unit load which allows handling and storage efficiencies. Goods or shipping containers are often placed on a pallet secured with strapping,stretch wrap or shrink wrap and shipped. | |||
While most pallets are wooden, pallets also are made of plastic, metal, and paper. Each material has advantages and disadvantages relative to the others. | While most pallets are wooden, pallets also are made of plastic, metal, and paper.
