A pallet for holding at least one window frame includes a base and movable sides pivotally attached to the base. The movable sides are positionable to be substantially perpendicular to the base and are configured to hold the window frame. Connectors attached to the base and the movable sides, respectively, prevent the first and second movable sides from moving away from each other. A method for using the pallet is also disclosed.

What is claimed is: 1. A system for holding a window having a frame, said system comprising:a pallet comprising:a base having a first end, a second end opposite said first end, a length extending therebetween, a width transverse to said length, a top and a bottom and a height therebetween, at least a portion of said top proximate at least one of said first and second ends being in a plane transverse to said height;at least one support member on said top of said base, said support member including at least one slot oriented along the length of said base configured to receive a portion of the window frame;a first movable side and a second movable side each having a top end, a bottom end, a length extending therebetween, and a width transverse to said length, said bottom end of said first movable side and said bottom end of said second movable side each being attached to said base proximate said first and second ends of said base, respectively, each of said first and second movable sides including a hinge proximate said top of said base, said hinge in each of said first and second movable sides being formed by weakening a portion of a respective one of said first and second movable sides, at least one of said first and second movable sides being movable from a first position where said at least one of said first and second sides is substantially perpendicular to said top of said base to a second position where said top end of said at least one of said first and second movable sides is below the transverse plane of said base;a first divider attached to said first movable side and a second divider attached to said second movable side, said first and second dividers extending across a portion of the width of a respective one of said first and second movable sides, each of said dividers having a first end, a second end, a longitudinal axis extending therebetween, and at least one slot oriented transverse to the longitudinal axis of each of said dividers and configured to receive respective portions of the window frame; anda plurality of straps each having opposite ends, each of said straps having a first portion proximate one of said opposite ends attachable to said base and a second portion proximate another one of said opposite ends attachable to one of said first and second movable sides, said straps when attached to said base and said first and second movable sides, respectively, preventing said first and second movable sides from moving away from each other when said first and second movable sides are in said first position; andat least one window frame having at least a portion receivable in said at least one slot of said support member, said at least one window frame having a top end, a bottom end, and a maximum height therebetween, said first and second movable sides each having a maximum height extending from said base of said pallet being less than the maximum height of said at least one window frame;whereby said pallet is stackable above another pallet to facilitate storage or transportation of said at least one window frame.
