An interlocking modular pallet apparatus and method of construction and de-construction which includes plastic modular components aligned in a two-by-two arrangement with interlocking male and female tabs which connect in a vertically sliding manner to form an upper support structure with a series of upper apertures through the platform surface. A set of rail components are interconnected in a perpendicular manner to form an evenly spaced grid with corresponding lower apertures. Hollow formed spacing members are placed between each aligned aperture pair. A first interlocking insert is placed through each upper aperture and a second interlocking insert is placed through each lower aperture. The first and second inserts interlock to join the upper support structure with the lower rail assembly, with the spacing members forming cavities for insertion of lifting device appendages. The completed pallet device also includes frictional pads attached across its surface to prevent loads from sliding off.
A pallet device formed from modular components comprising:
