An apparatus for storing a supply of cups or containers comprises a housing for maintaining the containers in a stacked, telescopically interfitted relationship. An open lower end of the housing has a resilient diaphragm extending there across with a lower face of the diaphragm having a hole therein to allow the lowermost container to be withdrawn while retaining the stack in the housing. The diaphragm has a peripheral flange which extends axially of the housing about the open lower end. A circumferentially continuous clamp sleeve is interference fitted over the peripheral flange of the diaphragm to clamp the flange in position. The clamp ring further includes a radially inward directed collar flange joined to the sleeve at the lower end thereof and extending in close engagement with the lower face thereof to locate the clamp ring on the housing and prevent the diaphragm from being deflected away from the bottom edge of the tubular side wall. The assembly also includes a protective sleeve depending from the collar flange to protect the diaphragm and lower cup.
