Abstract

A box pallet having a base (1) and four sidewalls (2-5) is characterized in that the base (1) has four vertical walls (7-10) which, together with the upper surface (6) of the base, form an upwardly open, rectangular space for accommodating the sidewalls (2-5), each sidewall being releasably connected to the adjacent sidewall in that the vertical edge portions of the adjacent sidewalls are in the shape of hook-shaped beads (15, 16) engaging one another, and that the upper surface (6) and the vertical walls (7-10) of the base form supporting and guiding means for the sidewalls (2-5) resting loosely on the upper surface of the base.
