ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a container and method of transport for transporting lobster and like live cargo. The container comprises a bin stackable on similar bins with a divider assembly mountable within the bin. The divider assembly has runner partition walls to extend the full extent of the bin in one direction; and cross partition walls to extend the full extent of the bin at right angles to the runner partition walls, to divide the bin into compartments of a size to receive individual lobsters. After the partition walls have been mounted into the bin to divide the bin into compartments of a size to receive a single lobster; a lobster is loaded into each compartment of the bin. The bin is then stacked onto a similar bin within a transport vehicle and transported to the place of use. The lobster is then unloaded from the bins at the place of use. The divider assembly is then removed from each of the bins, the bins nested and returned to the field for re-loading.
