Pallet and load packaging method

A load packaging method for loading a load on a loading member of a pallet and intermediately packaging the load with intermediate packaging material, wherein the pallet comprises:

• a loading member made from paper onto which a load is loaded;
• a leg member made from paper which is fixed to the loading member and, as well as supporting the loading member when a load is loaded on the loading member, forms an insert body receiving member into which is inserted an insert body used during transportation;
• and
• a base member made from paper which is fixed to the opposite side of the leg member to the loading member, wherein the load packaging method comprises:
• a load loading step for loading the load onto the loading member;
• an intermediate packaging step for intermediately packaging the top surface and side surfaces of the load loaded onto the loading member with the intermediate packaging material;
• and
• a fastening step for fastening the intermediate packaging material with which the load was intermediately packaged in the intermediate packaging step to the loading member,
• wherein, before the step to load a load on the loading member, a laying step is performed to lay intermediate packaging material, which is substantially the same shape as the loading member, on the loading member.

• and
• a fastening step for fastening the intermediate packaging material with which the load was intermediately packaged in the intermediate packaging step to the loading member,
• further comprising:
• a laying step for laying a lower intermediate packaging material formed to a larger size than the loading member on the loading member;
• a lower intermediate packaging step for loading a load onto the lower intermediate packaging material laid in the laying step and for bending upwards portions of the lower intermediate packaging material which extend out beyond the load thus intermediately packaging the bottom surface and a portion of or all of the side surfaces of the load;
• and
• a fastening step for intermediately packaging the top surface and side surfaces of the load loaded onto the loading member with an upper intermediate packaging material and fastening the upper intermediate packaging material to the lower intermediate packaging material.

• wherein the loading member includes a step portion and wherein, in the step to load the load on the loading member, the side surfaces of the load and side portions of the step portion are made flush, and in the intermediate packaging step, the intermediate packaging material is placed in surface contact with both the side surfaces of the load and the side portions of the step portion.
