But if I heard someone use it, I'd feel they'd be using these things for -sliding- along. A 'pallet' is -not- used for sliding along, only for being picked up and moved around via a forklift. Of course, people may still use 'skid' synonymously for pallet, I just don't know is all. | |

| Oct 21, 2014 at 22:07 | comment | added | Hot Licks | In the US, at least, the pictured item would be called a "pallet" 9 times out of ten. "Skid", in this sense, is a little more generic, and would refer to any sort of (probably wooden) frame under a heavy item, where the frame is designed to "skid" (be pushed about without lifting). | |
