A composite pallet includes at least two channels and a plurality of stringers. Each channel includes a U-shaped cross-section with an inward facing leg extending from each outer edge of the U-shaped cross-section. Each stringer preferably includes a lengthwise body and at least two retention members. At least two channel retention slots are formed on a bottom of each stringer. Each retention slot is sized to receive an outer width of the channel. Each retention member is attached to a bottom of a stringer in a single channel retention slot. At least one fastener is inserted through the junction of a single stringer and a single channel. A second embodiment of the composite pallet includes at least two channels with outward facing legs and a plurality of stringers with projections that are sized to receive the at least two channels.
