Abstract:
1. A stackable container adapted to be stacked as an upper container or as a lower container with a second substantially identical container in two positions, the stackable container comprising: a container body; and an arm movably connected to the container body; the container body comprising a base and four walls, each of the four walls extending upwardly from the base to a height comparable to a width of the base to define an interior space, one of the four walls being shorter in height than another of the four walls; the walls defining an opening; wherein the arm is movable between (i) a first position in which the arm of the stackable container and an upper ledge of the stackable container, when the stackable container is the lower container, provide a support for the upper container wherein, when stacked, the upper container is supported above the stackable container with at least part of an interior of the stackable container accessible; (ii) a second position in which, when the stackable container is the lower container, the arm is positioned to allow the upper container to nest within the stackable container with the interior space of the stackable container inaccessible; and (iii) a third position for carrying the stackable container, in which the arm is substantially centered over the opening.
