A supporting frame (1, 11, 12) for a loading pallet (4-7) is so placed on the pallet that its corner columns (1) rest on a portion of a foot fitting (2) which projects beyond the corners of the pallet. Supporting means (either separate 9, 10, or in the form of transoms 11, 12) permit an essential part of the load of the corner columns (1) on the foot fitting (2) in the operative position to be transferred to such areas of the foot fitting that the load is distributed inwardly over the portion of the foot fitting which is supported by the corner of the pallet, where the supporting means are so adapted as to allow rotation of the foot fitting, e.g. to secure the supporting frame on the pallet.
