Abstract: A container for shipping and/or storing a stack of paper is disclosed. The container, according to a disclosed embodiment, comprises a bottom wall and first and second upright, opposing side walls extending from respective edges of the bottom wall. First and second shell portions are connected in a pivotal manner to respective edges of the bottom wall. The shell portions are pivotable toward and away from each to close and open the container, respectively. When the container is closed, the stack is securely contained between the shell portions and the side walls for shipping or storing. When the container is opened, at least two opposing sides of the stack are exposed to facilitate removal of paper from the container. A handle for carrying or lifting the container may be coupled to one of the shell portions.

Abstract: A cellular space divider for cartons and the like is disclosed that is formed from a blank of sheet material such as corrugated cardboard. The blank contains vertical first scorelines that define front, rear, and a pair of side panels. One of the panels contains a horizontal first fold line, and the remaining panels each contain throughout substantially the length thereof a first cut colinear with the first fold line, whereby the panels are divided into lower first and upper second panel sections. When the panels are folded about the first score lines to define a tube and the adjacent ends of the panels are connected together, the lower and upper panel sections define lower and upper cell units, respectively, the upper cell unit being foldable about the first fold line to a position in which the external surfaces of the panel sections joined by the first fold line are in contiguous engagement, thereby to define a multi-cell arrangement.

Abstract: A portable, open top, mail collecting container constructed and shaped from lightweight material for removable insertion inside of a mail collection box through the box access door. The upper edges of the container incline downwardly from the rear end wall towards the front end wall to facilitate insertion in and removal through the restricted access opening in the side of a mailbox. A moisture impervious bottom wall on the container is provided with liquid drainage apertures and is supported on vertically extending projections to permit any liquid which might fall into the container to drain through the bottom and to protect mail collected in the container from exposure to moisture when the container is rested on the ground in the course of handling.
