The container including an outer packaging having at least one vertically extending sidewall, a closed bottom, a top opening for removing the welding wire and a wire coil receiving cavity within the outer packaging for receiving the wire coil. The feeding end and the transfer end can be positionable near the top opening. The container further includes at least one transfer control tab in the cavity near the top opening. The at least one tab is configured to selectively support the transfer end of the wire during the unwinding of the wire from the coil and to selectively release the transfer end during the transfer from the one container to the other container.
