<p>This invention concerns a method and a corresponding apparatus for ordered supply of containers (3) to an automatic machine, comprising following operating stages: preliminarily freely supplying containers (3) into a plurality of trays (5) borne by a first conveyor belt (90) with vertical axis, in such a way as to create a single layer (50) of loosely arranged containers (3) in the trays (5) with the longitudinal axis (3b) thereof oriented horizontally; subsequently detecting a position of each container (3) of the single layer (50) in the corresponding tray (5); picking up each container (3) situated in the tray (5) and subsequently releasing the container (3) at a mouth (11a) of a relative inclined channel (11) which is shaped such as to guide the container (3) onto a corresponding underlying housing (80) of a fixed plane (8), with the container resiting with a longitudinal axis (3b) thereof vertically arranged; subsequently translating a plurality of containers (3) resting in the housings (80) towards corresponding facing seatings (10) associated to a second conveyor belt (95) having a vertical axis; and finally supplying the containers (3) which are positioned in the seatings (10) of the second conveyor belt (95) to an associated machine (100).
