Abstract
A multipurpose adjustable single sheet container for storing and shipping various sizes and shapes of items. The single sheet container is characterized by having end flaps that can be either cut or folded, at the option of the user, for enclosing the ends of the container. The container has vertical fold lines which allow the user of the container to adjust the length and the width of the container for forming different geometric shapes. The container includes a plurality of side panels. Opposite sides of the side panels are divided by vertical fold lines. Opposite ends of the side panels include upper horizontal fold lines and lower horizontal fold lines. The upper horizontal fold lines divide the side panels from a plurality of upper flaps. The lower horizontal fold lines divide the side panels from a plurality of lower flaps. Opposite sides of the upper and lower flaps are divided by vertical perforated lines. When a length of the vertical perforated lines is cut, the flaps can be folded inward when enclosing the opposite ends of the container. The upper and lower flaps also include “X” shaped diagonal fold lines. When a length of the diagonal fold lines is folded, the flaps can be folded inward providing an alternate way of enclosing the opposite ends of the container.
