any mobile forklift or other jacking device. The goods are placed on top of the pallet, and can be secured to it by
straps or stretch-wrapped plastic film. While the majority are made of wood, Pallet manufactured from
plastic, metal, paper can also be found. A pallet is sometimes colloquially called a skid, by back-formation from skid
