The container has at least two lateral walls (3), a rear wall and a base (1). It includes shelves (7) mounted on each lateral wall (3). Below the shelves (7) are respective width-reducers (9) which enable the container to maintain compact arrays of cartons (8) of differing standard sizes. The width-reducers (9) are displaceable between effective and ineffective conditions, perhaps by the shelves (7). - The width-reducers (9) may be resiliently biassed by springs towards their effective conditions or may themselves be resilient biassing elements. Between the rear of the shelves (7) and the rear wall of the container are bridges in the form of thin steel strips. These strips either form rearward extensions of the shelves (7) themselves or are mounted retractably upon the rear wall. |
