Homeowner Forum / Construction / April 2005What is a "skid"?
Slightly OT but.. I know what a "pallet load" is but what is a "skid" (in the context of shipping materials/objects around). Seen on a Fedex shipping website. Thanks skid = pallet Its the wooden/plastic thing that your shipment sits on that can be lifted by a fork lift. > Slightly OT but.. > > I know what a "pallet load" is but what is a "skid" (in the context of > shipping materials/objects around).

No, that is a skid mark. Different. Matt > >>Slightly OT but.. > >> [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > No, that is a skid mark. Different. Apparently you missed the sarcasm. But, they are called skids, too. |
