ABSTRACT:
A two-piece container for pizza or the like. The base includes a first pair of opposite side walls having end flaps. A second pair of opposite side walls are each folded to have an outer portion and an inner portion with at least one tab on the terminal edge thereof for engaging a slot in the bottom wall. The end flaps are received between the inner and outer portions. Cut-outs are provided in the second pair of side walls for securely receiving tabs of the lid between the inner and outer portions. In one aspect, the inner and outer portions have the shapes of trapezoids providing trapezoidal-shaped second side walls to effect sloping side walls for nesting of the bases for compact storage. The sloping side walls are also provided to effect a more secure attachment of the lid to the base. In another aspect, the container is composed of corrugated cardboard and at least one fold line is provided in the bottom wall and the first pair of side walls for folding the base for disposal.
