Abstract
A stackable and nestable basket including a basket having a bottom, two opposing sides, two opposite ends, and an open top. The sides and ends are angled inwardly from a top edge toward the bottom. A ledge is formed on the top edge of the sides and ends and extends outwardly from the top edge terminating in an outer ledge edge. The basket also includes a pair of handles movable into a carrying position, a nesting position, and a stacking position. Each of the pair of handles is mounted to each of the sides of the basket, so that the handles are pivotable into a carrying position, wherein the pair of handles contact each other above the ledge to form a single carrying handle.
