Abstract
A multi-compartment collapsible container made from a single integral blank is folded up and appropriately spotted with adhesive so that compartment forming panels extending from sections of the end walls and bottom walls lie in surface-to-surface relation initially with the end walls and side walls. The container thus manufactured may be shipped flat and erected at the place of the user by pushing on opposite ends of the folded carton in order to erect the carton with a longitudinal central partition and additional partitions extending from the longitudinal central partitions towards the side walls to create alternatively an erectible carton having eight cells in two rows of four with the cells being of substantially equal size or a carton having a pair of cells at each end, totalling four end cells with two larger cells intermediate the end cells which larger cells may themselves be convertible into smaller cells of equal size with the end cells totalling eight in all.
