Abstract
A fiberboard pallet comprises a deck of multi-wall corrugated fiberboard having a lower surface to which three, four or more elongated legs are permanently attached, for example, by gluing. Each leg is formed of a die cut blank having a series of five panels which are folded into a quadrilateral shape to form an initially open elongated passage. End flaps at the ends of each leg are folded and overlap each other to close the ends. At least two side openings are formed in each leg and any communication into the passage of the quadrilateral shape is closed by closing flaps formed as one piece with side panels of each leg.
