Abstract: A bulk bag (12) and rigid fork lift tine receiving member (18) combination. The combination includes a bulk bag (12) having a bottom (14) and a peripheral sidewall (16). Two rigid parallel-piped fork lift tine receiving members (18) are provided, each having an exterior surface with a tie receiving channel (26) extending across a bottom face (20) of the exterior surface. The fork lift tine receiving members (18) are tied with ties (28) to the bottom of the bulk bag (12). The ties (28) are positioned within the receiving channels (26), which protects them from wear as the fork lift tine receiving members (18) move across a floor.

Abstract: A bulk bag with integral pallets includes a flexible bag body having a bottom and sidewalls. Two elongate pallet members are provided having axially extending openings adapted to receive fork tines from a fork lift. Each of the two elongate pallet members has at least one underlying wear pad. The two elongate pallet members are secured to the bottom of the bag body with the least one underlying wear pad exposed. The securing straps, laces or elasticized sleeves are protected from wear by the underlying wear pad which provides an underlying wear surface.

Abstract: A pallet for bulk bags consists of a combination of a pair of elongate “C” channel tine receiving members and a bulk bag. Each of the tine receiving members have a top and opposed sides defining both an exterior surface and an interior surface. At least one strap receiving channel runs along the interior surface at the top. The exterior surface is devoid of appendages. The interior surface is being devoid of obstructions. The bulk bag has sides and a bottom. Straps are secured to the bulk bag, which are adapted to engage the at least one strap receiving channel of each of the tine receiving members for the purpose of securing the tine receiving members to the bottom of the bulk bag.

Abstract: A pallet assembly includes a pair of elongate lifting tine receiving members. Each of the lifting tine receiving members has an open first end, an open second end, a top surface and opposed sides. An integrally formed longitudinal engagement member extends like a spine along the top surface between the first end and the second end. At least one body is provided having a bottom surface with a pair of longitudinal engagement channels. Each of the engagement channels has a first end, a second end, and is adapted to interlock with the engagement member of one of the lifting tine receiving members when the engagement member is inserted into one of the engagement channels from one of the first end or the second end.
