ABSTRACT:
A device for filling a container with a plurality of objects standing substantially upright on a floor portion of the container includes: a depositing cavity temporarily created and maintained in the container for receiving one of the plurality of objects; a first moveable planar restraining member having a first anterior surface facing the depositing cavity and a first posterior surface, the first posterior surface restraining a previously deposited object against movement; and a second moveable planar restraining member having a second anterior surface facing the depositing cavity and a second posterior surface. The first and second restraining members are operationally arranged to be removably insertable into and between the opposing side walls of the container. After one of the plurality of objects is deposited into the depositing cavity, the first restraining member is moveable from a position on a first side of one of the plurality of objects, and the second restraining member is moveable away from the first restraining member to create a new depositing cavity.
