Abstract: A pallet device formed from a blank of sheet-form, semi-rigid material is arranged to be loaded with the aid of a form jig having a base and upstanding rigid form flanges, whereby a base panel of the device is received on the jig base between the form flanges, respective riser panels along opposite sides of the base panel are held upright by the form flanges, fork lift shoulder panels extending from the tops of the riser panels into overhanging relation outwardly from the form flanges. Respective retainer panels wider than the shoulder panels are arranged to overlie each of the shoulder panels and to extend inwardly into overhanging relation to the base panel and into engagement with objects loaded onto the base panel between the riser panels. The retainer panels are then interlocked with the objects by placing other objects in loading relation on top of the retainer panels. The retainer panels may be hingedly attached to the shoulder panels or separately formed and then attached to the shoulder panels.
