A one-piece plastic box for transporting fish or other food has end walls, side walls, and an imperforate bottom sloping downward toward discharge slots passing through the walls where the bottom joins the walls. The sidewalls include a substantially vertical lower portion and an inwardly inclined upper portion, the top of which is turned horizontally outward to form a board-like support surface with its outer margin bent downwardly to reinforce the support surface. Additional reinforcing is provided under the support surface and at the corners of the box. Means are provided for vertically aligning adjacent boxes in a stack of boxes. Means are also provided to prevent a single box or the bottom box in a stack of boxes from sliding on a smooth surface such as the deck of a ship.
