Claims14
A method for securing a first load and a second load with a dunnage bag arrangement comprising a deformable support connected to a dunnage bag, the method comprising:
- positioning the support on the first load and the second load so the support extends across a void between the first load and the second load and suspends the dunnage bag at least partially within the void;
- and
- inflating the dunnage bag so the dunnage bag expands and contacts the first and second loads, thereby causing the support to deform.
