(54) Pallet with collapsible frame and bag


(57) A pallet with hinged end walls (1), joined by detachable cross bars (5), may have a similar pallet stacked thereon. When the walls are collapsed, a superimposed identical pallet will have its U-shaped feet (4) (if made of metal) or the body of the pallet base (7) (if the latter is made of timber) nested inside corners defined by corner stub angle posts (2). When the walls are erected, the stacked pallet nests within corners provided by the end wall framing. A bag (having an optional roof supported by ridge rod Q) may be supported by the walls of the pallet and stiffened by battens within sleeves in the bag.
