<p>A collapsible container has a base with a bottom part having a bottom wall and feet and an upper part having side and end walls. Opposed side and end panels are hinged to the side and end walls of the base, respectively. The opposed side panels and opposed end panels are movable between an erected position and a folded position, in which one or both pairs of the opposed panels fold essentially flat onto the bottom wall of the base thereby reducing the height of the container for return shipment. Each of the opposed side panels of the container are hinged to the base at the same height in a channel formed in the corresponding side wall of the base to permit a hinge line to slide vertically in the channel formed in the side wall of the base.</p> |
