Each divider comprises a semiconical portion and a semicyclindrical portion that are formed roto molded polyethylene. Both portions are hollow double walled self-supporting polyethylene structures. The semiconical portion and the semicylindrical portion are pivotally secured to one another so they can be jacknifed into a transport configuration. The semicylindrical portion of the divider is pivotally mounted to a transverse frame by a first mounting assembly. A second mounting assembly is mounted to outwardly extending frame portions. The second mounting assembly has an upwardly extending pin which engages an aperture in the semicylindrical portion and a supporting rail which supports the bottom of the semiconical portion. The support rail can be vertically adjusted to change the vertical position of the semiconical portion.
