Modular packaging skid

摘要

A packaging skid or pallet having a base including a bottom surface, two side surfaces and two end surfaces. A pair of longitudinally extending channel members are secured to the base and define cavities for receiving lifting forks associated with a lift truck. A number of transversely extending cross members are secured to the channel members and/or the base. A first support tray is fixed to the base between the channel members and two cross member for receiving and retaining a front wheel associated with a motorcycle. A second support tray is fixed to the base between the channel members and two different cross members. A chock is positioned within the second support tray to support a back wheel of the motorcycle. The chock can be repositioned within the second support tray to accommodate motorcycles having different wheelbases. The components of the skid are formed from light weight rolled steel to resist corrosion and to reduce weight compared to a comparable wooden skid.
