ABSTRACT:
A multi-position container adapted to nest within a like-oriented lower container of like construction, and also adapted to stack on a said lower container in a "high-stack" position without rotating the upper container with respect to the lower container. In a preferred embodiment a said upper container can also be stacked within a said lower container at an "intermediate-stack" position without rotating the upper container with respect to the lower container. Thus, in the preferred embodiments, a three-position container is provided. In yet another embodiment an upper container can be stacked on a lower container in a high-stack position and in an intermediate-stack position, which also becomes the nest position in this embodiment.
