A package for an elongated product, such as a syringe, including an elongated platform and means retaining the elongated product co-extensively on top of the platform. The platform forms a top wall for a lower container defining a discard chamber having closed side, bottom and end walls. An elongated opening formed in the platform member above the discard chamber includes opposed side edge portions defining elastic closure members occupying a normal closed position over the discard chamber, and a depressed open position when a discarded product or syringe is forced downward against the closure members to open the elongated opening and permit the syringe to pass from the platform chamber member downward through the opening into the discard chamber. The package is further characterized by having laterally disposed flanges for detachable connection to adjacent flanges or to opposed flanges of adjacent containers to provide a multiple product package in which individual packaged products may be separated from the multiple package as needed. The multiple packages are also especially constructed and configured to permit nesting.
