Abstract
A three-level stacking container is formed with uniformly spaced openings extending downwardly from the upper edge of each of two opposed sidewalls of the container. The sidewalls take the form of a relatively thin planar web in which the openings are formed and each web is formed with three horizontal, vertically spaced shelves projecting forwardly from the rear edge of each opening. Stacking feet on the outer side of the web may be supported on a selected set of one of the three sets of shelves on an underlying like container, access to the two lower shelves being achieved by passing the feet of the upper container downwardly in the openings forwardly of the shelves. The lowermost of the three shelves constitutes the bottom edge of the opening and the front end of the next uppermost shelf projects forwardly beyond the front end of the uppermost of the three shelves.
