No, but you can form the meat into a loaf and bake it in any baking panI have loaf pans but I like to bake meatloaf this way because the grease drains off.
You can just shape the meat into a loaf, and place it in the center regular baking panYou don't need a loaf pan to make meatloafI never use a loaf pan, but I do put the shaped meat on a little grill type thing out of an old toaster oven, then place that in a 13 x 9 baking pan.
You could probably use a square brownie pan or small cake pan and cook for not as longOtherwise they have aluminum loaf pans at most places which aren't too costly.
I always shape my meat loaf on a larger panNever in a loaf panIf you cook it in a loaf pan it is sitting in the greaseMaking it freeform on a larger pan allows the grease to cook away from the meat.
