The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the joining element and its counterpart consist of elements vertically movable with respect to each other and horizontally lockable with respect to each other. 3. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the corner parts have rounded corners. 4. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the corner parts have substantially sharp corners. 5. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the walls comprising castings are made of HD polyethylene. 6. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the number of latching sockets placed one above the other in the lug exceeds the number of latching clutches placed one above the other in the outer surface of the upper edge of the side wall by at least one, allowing the side wall to be locked in at least two height positions above another side wall. 7. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the lower edge of the end wall is provided with an angle flange extending through its essential length to support the end wall on an edge of the pallet or on the upper edge of an end wall therebelow. 8. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the lower edge of the side wall is provided with an angle flange extending through its essential length to support the side wall on the edge of the pallet or on the upper edge of a side wall therebelow. 9. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the upper edge of the end wall and the side wall is provided with a top flange for supporting a side wall or end wall placed thereon. 10. The pallet cage according to claim 9, wherein the pallet cage comprises a plate-like intermediate floor which can be placed against the top flange of the end and side walls to form an intermediate floor or a cover for the pallet cage. 11. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein each lug is provided with a hole to allow the lug to be fastened to the pallet with a screw going through said hole. 12. The pallet cage according to claim 1, wherein the pallet is a plate provided with wheels.
