The illustrated pallet comprises a plurality of legs having hollow cup-shaped bodies extending through openings in the pallet member, which may be made of corrugated cardboard or other suitable material. Each leg is made in one piece, preferably of plastic material. A flange projects outwardly from the upper end of the body and engages the upper surface of the pallet member. Each leg is retained in the corresponding opening by one or more lugs projecting outwardly from the body, for engagement with the underside of the pallet member. In one embodiment, each lug comprises an upwardly facing shoulder and a downwardly tapering side surface for temporarily displacing the material of the pallet member by a wedging action, when the body of the leg is forced through the corresponding opening. The displaced material of the pallet member snaps into its final position above each lug when the leg has been fully inserted. The cup-shaped bodies of the legs taper downwardly so as to be stackable. In another embodiment, the lugs are adapted to be inserted through cut-outs or notches formed in the edges of the openings. Each leg is then rotated to move the lugs under the pallet member. Each lug preferably has a shoulder which is inclined to produce a wedging action with the underside of the pallet member. One or more locking teeth are preferably provided on each shoulder, to dig into the material of the pallet member.
