ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to containers adapted for use in the bulk packaging of articles; such as nails, bolts, screws, nuts and the like; which are commonly employed for home repairs and/or improvements. Each container includes a main body and a pivotally attached lid. The main body includes a bottom wall and upstanding peripheral walls defining a compartment for containing the articles therein. A hollow tubular section is part of the container body and has a height substantially equal to the height of the container compartment. At least a segment of the tubular section has an outer surface defining part of the compartment configuration; the remaining part of the compartment configuration being defined by the peripheral walls of the main body. Upper margins of the peripheral walls and the tubular member which define upper boundaries of the compartment are engaged by cooperating surfaces of the lid to completely enclose the article-containing compartment. The lid is shaped so that it does not obstruct the opening through the hollow tubular member. The container can be displayed or stored in a flat condition, or alternatively, it can be hung on a supporting rod of a peg board or similar supporting structure by inserting the rod through the opening in the tubular member.
