Abstract: A collapsible intermodal container includes first and second opposing parallel side walls, and an upper wall and a lower wall. The container has an erected configuration in which the upper wall extends from an upper end portion of the first side wall to an upper end portion of the second side wall, and the lower wall extends from a lower end portion of the second side wall to a lower end portion of the first side wall. In a collapsed configuration, the upper wall extends downwardly from the upper end portion of the first side wall to the lower end portion of the first side wall, and the lower wall extends upwardly from the lower end portion of the second side wall to the upper end portion of the second side wall. Front and rear end assemblies close front and rear ends of the container in the erected configuration and are engageable with the second side wall to secure the first side wall with respect to the second side wall.
