ABSTRACT:
a returnable shipping container for manufactured articles, such as vehicle steering wheels, which is comprised of a plurality of rectangular wall panels which are serially arranged side-by-side and have a hinge interposed between each adjacent panel with the end most of the panels each having a free side thereof. A separable fastener device establishes the free sides of the endmost panels in adjacent relationship to form a container of a tubular configuration defining an interior storage cavity. Separating the fastener allows the container to be opened and laid flat. A plurality of slots are provided in spaced apart relation along at least two of the wall panels and a plurality of shelf members are provided having a base wall adapted to lay against the slotted wall panels and having shelf arms which project through the slots and into the storage cavity to engage with and support the articles stored therein.
