Abstract

A utility container comprising a container body, a plurality of drawers, a plurality of drawer guide inserts and a slide cover, the slide cover being substantially biplanar to enclose the front and top of the container body, one edge of the cover being wrapped around the rear panel of the container body and the other edge being wrapped around the bottom of the container body to limit displacement of the cover relative to the container to a lateral sliding displacement, and the plurality of drawers and drawer guide inserts being easily removed and rearranged or replaced with a recording tape cassette or cartridge storage insert. Two or more such containers may be stacked on one another by way of a slot and raised rear wall member. In addition, the drawers may be individually removed and temporarily stacked in the top of the container rear wall for improved access to contents. The cover may be locked.
