ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method, an apparatus and a container for shipping printed matter. The method of the invention is essentially distinguished in that the printed matter reaches the respective shipping points in returnable containers adapted to its format. These returnable containers can then be used again after their return to the packaging station. The containers used in this connection are essentially distinguished in that they have free spaces extending from the container bottom to the upper container edge for access to printed matter to be placed in them. The apparatus of the invention to be used for packaging is distinguished by a magazine for receiving returnable containers stacked inside each other, from which the containers can be taken separately for loading with printed matter.
