The invention provides a loading finger for a drop loading mechanism which finger incorporates a guide plate. In a drop loading grid set the loading fingers define passageways through which bottles are dropped into the cells of cartons. In order to protect the partitions between adjacent carton cells during drop-loading, opposed loading fingers which are located in adjacent passageways have guide plates which include upper portions overlapped with one another above the uppermost edge of a carton partition during drop loading and include lower portions which are spaced apart one on either side of and below the uppermost edge of a carton partition.
