-> A "gaylord" is the big cardboard box that fits on top of a standard
pallet.

-> Origin of the name is I think from shipping apples, most I see these
days
-> vary between apple and plastic pellet shipping prior to there final
usage.
-> They are fairly standard in bulk material handling.

Gaylord is the name of the first company that made them, located in
Gaylord, MI, IIRC.

Be not the first by whom the new are tried,
Nor yet the last to lay the old aside.
