ABSTRACT:
A knock-down crate having a base associated with four sides. In a first embodiment, the base and the sides are hingedly interconnected. In alternative embodiments, the sides are detachably engageable with the base for deployment parallel to the length and breadth of the base. The upper surface of the base has an elongated recess extending most of the length and sized for receiving at least some of the sides. The sides can be deployed such that the base and four sides form a four-sided crate with the recess of the base contributing to the available volume of the crate. When not in use, at least some of the sides are received within the recess in the base for compact transportation.
