A device, in which a plurality of work supporting rods (26) arranged to project upward from the top of the pallet (22) keep a plurality of works (W) stacked on the pallet (22) and conveying means (80) having work gripping hands (50) provided with gripping hooks (54) conveys the works (W) to the destination for delivery while beginning with the uppermost one, is provided with resilient pushing up means (32) for constantly pushing and urging the work supporting rods (26) upward so that the upright work supporting rods (26) support the stacked works for preventing collapse thereof; and an annular depressing plate (56) is provided in the rear of a plurality of gripping hooks (54) of the work gripping hands (50) for pushing down the work support rods so as to convey the work to the destination while adapting the gripping hooks (54) to grip the work without external interference for transfer to the destination after exposing the uppermost work (W) to the outer space above the upper end of the work supporting rods (26). The work supporting rods (26) are depressed by said depressing plate (56) for opening the gripping hooks (54) and then the work gripping hands (50) put the work (W) on the pallet (22).
