Abstract

A pallet retainer for securing a load on a pallet within a cargo container is monolithic and has upper and lower arms. The arms are placed under and over a transverse member of the pallet and the retainer is secured to the floor of the cargo container by various means to prevent forward and aft shifting. The upper arms may be bifurcated into two transversely spaced segments to retain the vertical members of the pallet and prevent transverse shifting.
