ABSTRACT:
A low depth tray for bottles is provided which includes a first pair of opposed walls, a second pair of opposed walls attached to the first pair of opposed walls to form a wall structure, a base attached to the wall structure, and a plurality of interior divider walls extending upwardly from the base. At least one member projects upwardly from an interior of the wall structure and is connected to the divider walls, where the interior member has a height less than the height of the wall structure and less than the height of bottles loaded in the tray. Together, the interior member, the base, the divider walls, and the wall structure define a plurality of bottle retaining pockets which are each sized to receive a single bottle therein.
