A pallet for the stable transport of goods; the pallet comprising at least one surface element, and a plurality of side elements arranged, in use, to maintain the at least one surface element under compression. Preferably the at least one surface element comprises a planar body, which is generally parallelepiped in shape, and having a periphery defined by peripheral edges. Preferably a portion of each side element is shaped and dimensioned to accommodate a respective peripheral edge of the at least one surface element whereby the at least one surface element is retained within the side elements. Preferably the perimeter length of the at least one surface element exceeds the perimeter length defined by the assembled side elements whereby the at least one surface element is held under compression within the frame assembly of the side elements.
