Abstract

A package of one-piece folded construction includes a central, bottom portion having opposite parallel end edges and opposite parallel side edges. Plural end and side portions are attached to the bottom portion and arranged in serial fashion around the bottom portion as follows. A first end portion is attached to and extends laterally of an end edge of the bottom portion; a first side portion attaches to and extends laterally of a side edge of the bottom portion; a second end portion attaches to and extends laterally of another end edge of the bottom portion; and a second side portion attaches to and extends laterally of another side edge of the bottom portion. A gusset portion is provided between adjacent edges of respective ones of the end and side portions so that folding of the gussets orients the end and side portion generally perpendicular to the bottom portion. A first cover member attaches to one of the side portions and a second cover member attaches to the other side portion. The first and second cover members have extensions to overlap when folded generally parallel to the bottom portion. Locking tabs on the cover members and slots for receipt of the tabs when the cover members are folded parallel to the bottom portion are also enclosed.
