Abstract

The present invention provides a modular pallet having a guide channel-defining portion configured for defining at least one guide channel. A bottom wall at least partially defines the guide channel and includes at least one opening therethrough. The opening is adapted to receive therein a corresponding lift strap of a bulk bag such that the lift strap defines a loop in at least one guide channel. The modular pallet further comprises an insert member configured to be inserted into at least one guide channel for engaging the loop of the lift strap thereby fastening the bulk bag to the modular pallet for forming a bulk bag combination. The insert member is configured for engagement by a lifting device for lifting and maneuvering the bulk bag combination.
