Zusammenfassung:A one-piece pallet for securing and stacking drums thereon may include a tray having downwardly and inwardly tapering peripheral side walls, a top surface having a plurality of raised support surfaces, each shaped to engage a bottom of a container, a plurality of raised dividers, each of said dividers being positioned between adjacent support surfaces and being shaped to engage a side wall of a drum resting on said adjacent support surfaces. The side walls may have outer raised ribs terminating adjacent one of the support surfaces and shaped to engage a side wall of a drum resting on said adjacent one of said support surfaces. The dividers may include inner raised ribs having terminal portions opposite the terminal portions of the outer raised ribs such that a drum resting on any one of said support surfaces is constrained by the terminal portions of the inner and outer raised ribs from lateral movement relative to the tray. Support pedestals extend from a bottom surface of the tray, and the pedestals each include an arcuate groove shaped to engage an upper periphery of a drum that may facilitate stacking of the pallet.
