Abstract
A corrugated paperboard blank that folds together to form a container for enclosing a tank or other fragile article. A pair of seats space the article from a bottom and an upper support extends inwardly to hold the article from movement during shipping and handling. A support panel foldably attaches to an offset flange at an upper edge of the container. The flange spaces the support panel below the upper edge of the container for holding items, such as a lid, separate from the article in the container. The container closes without staples or adhesive for opening, inspection of the articles and reclosing.
