The pallet's braking system slows and stops the wheels on the pallet. There is interlocking connection capabilities on all four sides of the pallet that interlocks and connects multiple pallets together, and synchronizes the interlocked pallet's braking systems. There is also forklift access on all four sides of the pallet that allows the forklift to push, pull or lift the pallet, and operate the pallet's braking and interlocking systems. The pallet further includes corner bumpers to protect pallet, load stabilizers that prevent pallet from moving during transit, shelf rack bars that are installed or extended for additional support of goods and shelving, and wheel insets that prevent wheels from moving when pallets are stacked.
