ABSTRACT:
A container for displaying and transporting a heavy product, such as a vanity top, is fabricated and assembled as an integral unit to secure the product against possible damage while permitting the product to be easily transported and viewed by prospective purchasers. Each of its pair of side wall panels has an elongated central flap section which is hinged and folded inwardly to define a generally front-facing double fold front surface for the container slanted in a front and back direction and elongated in a direction generally transverse to the top and bottom wall panels. An upper end flap hinged along an upper edge of each side wall panel is at least in part folded inwardly in spaced generally parallel relation to the side wall panel, defining a surface extending generally transverse to the top and bottom wall panels to block movement of the product toward the back panel. Central, upper and lower pairs of overlapping rounded tabs are cut in the side wall panels and in the intermediate flap sections. These tabs are bent inwardly in assembling the container to secure the side wall panels and intermediate flap sections together. Additional tabs are provided on upper and lower side flaps to overlap with the upper and lower pairs of tabs. These additional tabs are also bent inwardly with the upper and lower tab pairs to aid in securing these side flaps in place.
