ABSTRACT:
A paperboard carton having a self-locking bottom for holding heavy produce and the like which may be made with minimum waste and cutout material. The minor or width flaps have an inwardly folding flap locking segment which, then folded, defines a generally rectangular opening centrally located along the outer edge of the minor flaps. The major or width flaps have a flap locking slit formed therein. An assembly flap hingedly formed in the major flap may be folded inwardly to create an assembly slot along a portion of the flap locking slit. Locking edges of the rectangular opening in the minor flaps engage a locking edge of the slits in the major flap to securely form the carton bottom
