Abstract

A space saving rectangular container having a child resistant lid assembly wherein the rectangular container has a rectangular closure provided with a central opening. The child resistant lid assembly is removably mounted on the closure to close the opening and is positioned inwardly of the container side walls so that when placing a plurality of the containers having child resistant lid assemblies thereon in a stacked or side-by-side relationship, the child resistant lid assembly is positioned inwardly from the side wall of an adjacent container to thereby prevent damage to the lid assembly by the adjacent container during shipment and storage. The side walls of the container are tapered to facilitate nesting with a similar container and the side walls of the containers are provided with a longitudinally extending recess beneath a handle to facilitate sliding the inner container from the outer container when in the nested position, and diagonal webs are provided on the bottom of each container along the peripheral edge portion thereof for centering the container to straddle the top of the lid on the next adjacent lower container, with the bottom of each container engaging reinforced portions on the top of the closure of the next adjacent lower container when stacked.
