Abstract

A paperboard container for shipping has been invented that utilizes the various parts of the container to provide strength and stability. Columns of ten or more containers possess excellent stacking strength and stability because the invention provides rigid relationships between containers. The rigid relationships are derived from good connections between the parts of the containers.
