Abstract: A corrugated pallet produced from two flat blanks is provided. The pallet may include a pallet top, a pallet bottom, and a plurality of corner straps locking the pallet top to the pallet bottom. Each of the pallet top and the pallet bottom may include folded portions, the folded portions of the pallet top interlocking with the folded portions of the pallet bottom when the pallet top and the pallet bottom are assembled to each other in nested relation. The pallet top may define a top surface of the pallet. The pallet bottom may define a bottom surface of the pallet. The corner straps may lock into one or both of the pallet top and the pallet bottom from the top or bottom surfaces of the pallet.

Abstract: A corrugated paperboard pallet is produced from two flat blanks which comprise a pallet top and a pallet bottom. The two blanks are each folded to produce only two parallel vertically extending double thickness ribs, three horizontal panels, two vertical side walls and two horizontal flaps. The ribs of the pallet top and pallet bottom lock each other from opening in the center of the pallet by intersecting perpendicularly with notches in the ribs. The horizontal flaps lock the ribs from opening at the edges of the pallet by intersecting perpendicularly with notches, and the vertical sidewalls include vertical flaps that open inward defining fork passages whereby the vertical flaps lock said horizontal flaps from opening.

Abstract: An interlock for the top and bottom members of a foldably-constructed pallet and a method of assembling a pallet wherein the top and bottom members are interlocked. By folding straps around the corners of the pallet, either from one sidewall of the pallet around the corner to the adjacent sidewall or from the top of the pallet to the bottom (and optionally from the bottom of the pallet to the top), and anchoring the end of the strap to the adjacent sidewall or the bottom member of the pallet (and if a second strap folded from the bottom member to the top member is utilized, to the top member), the load-bearing capacity of the pallet is substantially increased.
