Method for handling goods

A method for handling goods when transporting, storing, or exhibiting goods using a goods loading member, comprising:

• loading the goods;
• attaching a supporting member, which includes plural movable upright members, to the goods loading member;
• and
• supporting a supported member by the supporting member, wherein the supporting member is slidably movable in a vertical direction for changing a horizontal distance between at least two upright members of the plural upright members.

A method for handling goods comprising:

• loading goods into a goods loading apparatus that comprises a goods loading member onto which goods are loaded and a plurality of supports spaced on and detachably attached to the goods loading member so as to surround the goods on the goods loading member, and in which two adjacent supports are coupled to each other so as to enable adjustment of the space between the two supports by making the two adjacent supports closer to or farther apart from each other;
• transporting the goods;
• unloading the goods from the goods loading apparatus;
• loading trade-in goods into the goods loading apparatus;
• and
• transporting the trade-in goods to other sites.

• transporting the goods;
• unloading the goods from the goods loading apparatus;
• loading trade-in goods into a goods loading apparatus in which a space between supports are adjusted according to a size, a shape, and a quantity of the trade-in goods;
• and
• transporting the trade-in goods to other sites.

A method for handling goods, comprising:

• loading respective goods to be assembled, at different sites, into a plurality of goods loading apparatuses, each comprising a goods loading member onto which goods are loaded and a plurality of supports spaced on and detachably attached to the goods loading member so as to surround the goods on the goods loading member, and in which two adjacent supports are coupled to each other so as to enable adjustment of the space between the two supports by making the two adjacent supports closer to or farther apart from each other;
• transporting the goods loading apparatuses to an assembly site;
• detaching the plurality of supports of one of the goods loading apparatuses from the respective goods loading member, but not unloading the goods loaded on said one of the goods loading apparatuses from the respective goods loading member at the assembly site;
• mounting goods unloaded from the other of the goods loading apparatuses to the goods on the respective goods loading member;
• attaching the plurality of supports to the respective goods loading member at the assembly site;
• and
• transporting the goods loaded on said one of the goods loading apparatuses to other sites.

A method for handling goods, comprising:

• preparing a plurality of goods loading members of different sizes and visiting a site to pick up used goods with the plurality of goods loading members;
• selecting one of the plurality of goods loading members matching a size, a shape, and a quantity of the used goods to be picked up;
• loading the used goods onto the selected goods loading member;
• attaching a plurality of supports, in which a space between two adjacent supports is adjustable by making the two adjacent supports closer to or farther apart from each other, to the selected goods loading member;
• and
• transporting the used goods.

A method for handling goods by using a goods loading apparatus comprising a goods loading member onto which goods are loaded and a plurality of supports spaced on and detachably attached to the goods loading member so as to surround the goods on the goods loading member, and in which two adjacent supports are coupled to each other so as to enable adjustment of the space between the two supports by making the two adjacent supports closer to or farther apart from each other, comprising:

• loading used goods into the goods loading apparatus in which a space between supports is adjusted according to a size, a shape, and a quantity of the used goods;
• transporting the used goods to a sales exhibit;
• exhibiting the used goods, which remain loaded on the goods loading member of the goods loading apparatus at the sales exhibit;
• and
• transporting the used goods loaded on the goods loading apparatus to one who picks up the used goods.
