Abstract

The invention relates to a package for a reel of wire. The package has a cover, a connecting plate foldably connected with the cover and a bottom foldably connected with the connecting plate. The cover, the connecting plate and the bottom are able to be assembled into a package such that a reel of wire is able to be received therein and a free end of the reel of wire is able to extend through an outlet on a top face of the cover for operation and the free end is able to be retained by inserting into a retaining hole on the top face of the cover. Furthermore, a window defined on the top face of the cover enables an operator to see the volume of the reel of wire left in the package.
