A container for storing and shipping a stack of glass sheets on edge sandwiches the sheets between a lower baseboard and an upper cap board, the stack and boards being enveloped by corrugated front and rear covers. Side flaps of the covers are secured to each other to prevent racking of the stack and vertical banding is provided around the covers. The cap board extends beyond the side flaps for handling by a sling with the banding supporting the stack from the cap board, and the baseboard is supported on feet for handling by a forklift. The cap board and front and corrugated covering may be provided in one piece which spans the entire stack or in two pieces with the pieces at opposite ends of the stack and the stack exposed between them.
