ABSTRACT:
A reusable and returnable container for holding product therein during shipment and subsequently being returned without product comprises a body having at least two opposed side structures, collapsible dunnage operably connected to the side structures, and a dunnage erection biaser operably connected to one of the side structures. The force needed to erect the dunnage is minimized due to the dunnage erection biaser. The dunnage erection biaser, in one embodiment is a pair of torsion springs. However, the biaser may be any elastic or non-elastic device to facilitate erection of collapsed dunnage.
