Abstract: A pallet skirt for covering side portions of a pallet and for providing access for lifting of the pallet via forks of a pallet lifting device includes a skirt body with opposite top and bottom margins. The skirt body includes first and second pairs of opposite side walls, with each of the side walls presenting opposite inner and outer faces. The side walls are configured to cover portions of product stacked on the pallet and to cover the side portions of the pallet. The side walls of at least one of the side wall pairs defines therethrough a pair of spaced apart fork-receiving recesses that extend between the inner and outer faces to thereby provide fork access to the pallet through the side wall when the skirt body is disposed about the pallet. A blank for forming such a pallet skirt is also disclosed. A method of labeling a palleted product such that the labeled pallet remains moveable via forks is also taught.
