ABSTRACT:
A folding crate includes a bottom having a substantially planar support surface for receiving packages, a first side wall and a second side wall. A first hinge arrangement is provided for hingedly connecting the first side wall to the bottom and a second hinge arrangement is provided for hingedly connecting the second side wall to the bottom. The hinge arrangements permit the first and second side walls to be folded inwardly toward the bottom when packages are not located in the crate. The hinge axis of the first and second hinge arrangements are positioned at elevationally different positions to that the first and second side walls can be folded inwardly toward the bottom and positioned substantially parallel to one another.
