Abstract: A bulk bin, multi-sided container includes a bottom portion with tabs that automatically pops into position when the container is erected from the flat state. The container preferably includes a sidewall section having six panels which is attached to a bottom section having six sides with six tabs therein. Two of the tabs of the bottom section are attached adhesively to cut-out portions on the bottom inside of two opposing panels of the sidewall section in such a fashion that a portion of the tabs adjacent to the attached tabs lie inside of the multi-sided container when the container is in the flat state. This structure automatically forces the remaining nonattached tabs to pop into proper alignment and position when the extreme edges of the flat sidewalls are squeezed towards each other. A top having a similar structure can be erected quickly and placed on top of the container. The container and its top can be erected in a matter of seconds.
