A cargo pallet has a framework including a plurality of beams that are each formed of a square hollow body of paperboard treated for water resistance and water repellency. Each beam is engaged at a predetermined distance with and adhered to a pair of channel-shaped bent edge members of paperboard material faced to each other. Strip-like boards are placed in parallel to each other on both the front and back faces of the beams with a gap provided between adjacent strip-like boards in a direction perpendicular to the beam length and adhered to the beams. Each of the strip-like boards is formed with a pattern paper treated for water resistance and water repellency that covers all of the periphery of front and back faces of an inner core member of thick paperboard. Fork insertion openings are provided in the edge members having paperboard reinforcing layers.
