A system including a collapsible, recyclable, cost-effective module for transporting, loading and unloading slabs or tiles. The module comprises two lateral U-shaped members with each U-shaped member defining a top portion, bottom portion, proximal arm and distal arm. The member bottom portions are attached to one another and corresponding releasable connectors close each U-shaped member. The module is attached to a stabilizing base which in turn is secured to a transport ship or vehicle. Multiple modules are interconnected for the purpose of stabilization.

1. A module for transporting slabs comprising two lateral U-shaped members, each defining a top portion, bottom portion, proximal arm, and distal arm, the bottom portions being attached to one another,a first set of releasable connectors to close each U-shaped member of said module,an incline disposed toward one of said arms,tensioning means to urge said slabs toward said incline,said tensioning means comprising a stabilizing arm disposed away from one of said arms,said stabilizing arm being pivotally connected to the other of said arms,a planar oblique support being pivotally attached to said stabilizing arm and positioned to engage the adjacent one of said slabs in a flat face contacting condition,said first set of releasable connectors respectively having oppositely disposed ends,apertures formed in said first set of connectors respectively said ends and extending downwardly,a second module for transporting slabs positioned adjacent said module,said second module comprising two lateral U-shaped members,a second set of releasable connectors to close each U-shaped member of said second module,said second set of releasable connectors respectively having oppositely disposed ends,apertures formed in said second set of connectors respectively adjacent said ends and extending downwardly,a stabilizing clip having spaced downwardly extending stabilizing tabs,one of said stabilizing tabs disposed in one aperture of said first set of releasable connectors, andthe other of said stabilizing tabs disposed in the adjacent aperture of said second set of releasable connectors. 2. The module according to claim 1 wherein a lock cooperatively engages said stabilizing arm. 3. The module according to claim 1 wherein said incline is disposed toward said proximal arm and said stabilizing arm is pivotally connected to said distal arm. 4. The module according to claim 1 wherein said slabs are any one selected from a group of stone, granite, marble, glass, mineral, porcelain, plaster, polymer, precast cement and wood. 5. The module according to claim 2 wherein said lock cooperatively engages said distal arm. 6. The module according to claim 1 wherein said member top portions of the U-shaped member define cooperative engagements for attachment to a laterally disposed module. 7. The module according to claim 1 wherein said member bottom portions of the U-shaped member define engagements for attachment to a stabilizing base. 8. The module according to claim 1 wherein each of said arms comprises a bottom and the bottoms of said arms are hollow to facilitate stacking. 9. The module according to claim 1 wherein said module is collapsible. 10. The module according to claim 1 wherein said bottom portions are releasably attached to each other. 11. The module according to claim 1 wherein cooperative engagements are secured to the upper portions of said proximal and distal arms and said cooperative engagements comprise an enclosure with an aperture formed therein opposite said arms. 12. The module according to claim 9 wherein said U-shaped members are interconnected by means of a crossbar support and said crossbar support is pivotable midway between said U-shaped members.
