ABSTRACT:
A box-like container of corrugated plastic web having a pair of side walls and end walls is provided. The first side wall has a fold with a rectangular flap hingeably mounted thereto; each end wall has a hingeably mounted end flap having a slant edge terminating in an off-center blunt apex. The other side wall has a hingeably mounted triangular flap which terminates in a blunt substantially central apex. Accordingly, the first side flap is foldable toward the container and the end flaps are foldable thereover to define a substantially central slot with the first side flap and the (second side) triangular flap is foldable over the other flaps with the central apex being insertable into the slot to interleave the other flaps in an interlocking configuration.
In one embodiment the container has top flaps and similar bottom flaps mounted to the container walls, which flaps are recloseable to form a closed container and openable to permit the container to be compressed into lay-flat form.
In another embodiment the container has such closeable flaps mounted on one end of the side walls and is open at the other end of the side walls to form when the flaps are closed, container halves for use separately or in combination with another container half to form a telescoping, closeable container.
