Abstract

A pallet system for supporting a load of at least one tray having side supports includes a pallet, having at least one pair of raised parallel guide rails on its top surface, each pair of guide rails configured to be straddled by side supports of a tray. The pallet may be loaded by sliding trays onto the pallet, and lateral movement of a tray loaded onto the pallet is limited by the pair of guide rails that it straddles.
