Abstract: A collapsible basket is provided which includes the following components: a bottom wall; a plurality of side walls mounted to the bottom wall, each of the side walls being upwardly and inwardly pivotable between a flattened position extending substantially co-planar to the bottom wall, and a raised position extending substantially normal thereto; an abutment disposed between adjacent side walls for limiting the inward pivotal travel when the side walls are in the raised position; a tab extending upwardly from each of the side walls; and a peripheral clamp disposable adjacent the side walls, encompassing the tabs to fix the position of the side walls between the clamp and the abutment.
