Abstract
A bulk material carrying container defined by a framework including a base and a pair of opposing, generally parallel upright sides carried by the base. An elastomeric sheet is secured to and suspended between the sides so that it forms a generally concave receptacle into which bulk material and the like may be dropped. The sheet is dimensioned so that it is substantially freely suspended between the sides. A multiplicity of sheet supporting, flexible ropes are anchored to the sides and engage an underside of the sheet so as to support the sheet and materials carried therein.
