A machine for loading a load carrier ( 20 ) such as a pallet with packing units (cardboard boxes, collis etc.), which form a load stack ( 21 ) on the load carrier, is presented. The machine includes handling and support mechanism ( 52-57 ), that allows a packing unit ( 15 ) to be loaded. The handling and support mechanism supports the load from below throughout the operation of loading from a feed device ( 51 ) onto the load stack. By virtue of the handling and support mechanism, the packing unit may be deposited at any selectable spatial position on the load stack. It is therefore possible to form an optimized load stack on the load carrier in which the packing units are always supported from below, with the result that the loading is not dependent upon the material quality of the packaging of the packing unit.
