ABSTRACT:
A container for use in shipping garments on hangers has four surrounding walls, preferably, of multiple wall, corrugated kraft board. Dependently connected flaps which form a bottom for the container are arranged to permit shipment of the box in a collapsed condition. An entry flap provided on the front wall of the container is movable between a raised and lowered position. A lid for the container with depending sides is provided. A support structure is provided inside the container. It includes a horizontal support member preferably of wood supported at either end by vertical support members preferably of wood. The support members are held in position by securement plates. The sheet metal securement plates are formed into u-shaped clips which engage the side walls. A central tongue on each clip extends outwardly at an angle. An opening in the tongues receive the horizontal support member. The lower edges of the tongues form and engage in kerfs in the tops of the vertical support members. Prongs or notches in the tongues prevent relative movement of the support members. One embodiment of the tongue structure has openings which captively secure the support members. Several different arrangements for securing the support members together and to the container are provided. Load distribution plates with slippage prevention features support the vertical support members. Ropes are looped over the horizontal support members and knotted at spaced intervals.
