Abstract

A stackable container, including side walls extending upwardly from a bottom wall and defining an open-top, enclosed space therein, and rigid support members spaced about the bottom wall, the rigid support members having a vertical height. The side walls are tapered outwardly so as to be stackable in a nesting relationship within a similar container with a stacking offset less than the support members vertical height whereby the support members are supported on aligned rigid support members of the similar container. Outwardly tapered stress-relieving triangular corner surfaces extend upwardly between 130.degree. and 140.degree. from corners of the bottom wall and connect to side walls to form each junction of the bottom wall with two side wall. A lid has a rim adapted for placement around a container rim, with inwardly projecting flanges on each of the lid rim sides whereby the flanges extend beneath a downwardly facing portion of the container rim adjacent each of the four walls to releasably secure the lid to the container rim.
