A carrier for supporting goods comprises one or a plurality of first support means (2) forming a first support plane, and a plurality of regularly spaced parallel second support means (3) facing away from the first support plane and projecting from the first support means to form a second support plane. Such a carrier can be used as a pallet if the first support plane is turned upwardly and may serve as a floor element in a transport means if the second support plane is turned upwardly.
