A unit load device or ULD is a pallet or container used to load luggage, freight
and mail on wide body aircraft. It allows large quantity of cargo to be bundled
into a single unit. Since this leads to fewer units to load, it saves the crew
ground time and effort apart from preventing flights delays.
ULD pallets are rugged sheets of aluminum with rims designed to lock onto
cargo net .
ULD containers, are enclosed units made of aluminum walls.
