Abstract

A pallet (20) has an upper deck (22) that is shaped to accommodate a wrap securing goods to the pallet. The pallet according to the disclosed embodiment of the present invention includes at least one projection (34) from each corner (32) of the pallet upper deck. The projections prevent the wrap from slipping off the adjacent edge of the pallet upper deck. For decks that include upper (22) and lower deck (24) sections joined together, the projections also assist in locating and orienting the deck sections relative to one another before being joined.
