ABSTRACT:
A tote box intended for use in very confined locations such as under the counter of the cashier station in a retail clothing establishment, the box having four flaps, each of which has a tab formed in the center of the edge of the flap. Each wall to which the flap is attached has a gripping aperture into which the tab carried by the flap may be inserted while the box is in use. In addition, a bend line provided between the flap-wall junction and the tab means enables the portion of the flap containing the tab means to be easily inserted into the gripping aperture. Further, a slot in each of two opposing end walls functions to receive and restrain the exterior flap of the two flanking flaps.
