Abstract
A pallet includes a deck and a plurality of legs extending downward from the deck. At least one permanent magnet is disposed on the underside of the deck adjacent to at least one tine entry location defined between the legs. The magnet is configured to attract the tines of a forklift to provide a magnetic retention force that resists tipping of the pallet when lifted and moved by the forklift. Preferred examples include nestable polymer pallets.
