ABSTRACT:
A portable article carrier apparatus includes a floor and a plurality of walls extending upward from the floor. The floor and the walls define an interior storage space, Each of the walls includes a bottom wall portion, a top wall portion, and an intermediate wall portion between the bottom wall portion and the top wall portion. Partition-support brackets are connected to intermediate wall portions of the walls and project into the interior storage space. A removable and replaceable partition is supported by the partition-support brackets. A lid is supported by the top wall portions of the walls. The walls are connected to the floor at an obtuse slant angle. The obtuse slant angle flares the walls outward, whereby the partition is permitted to be easily placed in and removed from the interior storage space. As a result of the outwardly flaring walls, the length and width of the floor are smaller than the corresponding dimensions of the partition; and the length and width of the partition are smaller than the corresponding dimensions of the lid. The lid includes a lid handle, and the partition includes a partition handle. The partition handle is comprised of a pair of grab apertures located in the partition.
