An apparatus comprising: a pallet-receiving assembly having a pallet-receiving zone configured to receive, at least in part, a pallet supporting a pallet load; wherein the pallet receiving assembly has a frame; wherein the frame defines the pallet receiving zone; wherein the pallet receiving zone is sized so that a pallet can be freely moved into and out of the pallet receiving zone; wherein the frame has a first side, a second side substantially parallel and separated from the first side, and a rear connecting the first side and the second side so that the first side is substantially parallel to the second side and the first side and the second side are substantially perpendicular to the rear; a clamp assembly connected to the pallet-receiving assembly having a clamping zone configured to secure a first side, a second side, and a rear of the pallet load once the clamp assembly is activated by a pneumatic circuit so that the pallet load is supported by the clamp assembly; the pneumatic circuit is for controlling a clamping pressure of the clamp assembly; wherein the clamp assembly includes: a first-side clamping mechanism attached to the first side of the frame, a second-side clamping mechanism attached to the second side of the frame, and a rear-clamping mechanism attached to the rear of the frame; and the first-side clamping mechanism, the second-side clamping mechanism, and the rear-clamping mechanism are configured to move inwardly towards the clamping-zone once the pneumatic circuit is activated, and the first-side clamping mechanism, the second-side clamping mechanism, and the rear-clamping mechanism secures the pallet load so that the pallet does not support the secured part of the pallet load; and the first-side clamping mechanism and the second-side clamping mechanism includes: a front assembly having a front pivot and a front extension assembly; a rear assembly having a rear pivot and a rear extension assembly; characterized in that, the front assembly and the rear assembly move independently of each other in a horizontal direction towards and away from the clamping zone for adjusting a yaw angle of the pressure plate. a pallet-receiving assembly having a pallet-receiving zone configured to receive, at least in part, a pallet supporting a pallet load;
