An apparatus for stowing a pallet mounted with a cargo into a hold of a freight vessel, which comprises: two pairs of rails installed on a floor of a hold of a freight vessel in parallel with the center line of the freight vessel; at least two rows of pallet stands, for placing a pallet mounted with a cargo, provided at least outside each of the two pairs of rails; two carriages travellable on the two pairs of rails in synchronization with each other, a vertically moveble table provided each carriage; and a lifting mechanism of the table. The abovementioned lifting mechanism comprises an outer cylinder fixed vertically on each carriage, an inner cylinder slidably engaging in the outer cylinder, a disk fixed to the upper end of the inner cylinder and connected to the table, and a hydraulic means comprising a cylinder pin-connected vertically to each carriage and a rod engaging in the cylinder, the upper end of the rod of the hydraulic means being pin-connected to the center of the lower surface of the disk, whereby the table is vertically movable by means of the hydraulic means and rotatable in a horizontal plane.
