Abstract: The device according to the present invention is primarily meant for carrying and storing bottles (e.g. wine bottles etc) and cans. The common irritating phenomena of rattling and unstable bottles during transport are eliminated. This is achieved by carrying the bottles lying down in a (more or less) horizontal position, firmly packed against each other by the force of gravity and the enclosing straps. The device furthermore has preferably one compartment per bottle. The force of the bottles against each other, with the carrying handles extended as to function as straps/bands that enwrap all the bottles, holds the bottles firmly in place when carried. The opening of the device is closable, by means of a top lid or other closure. This makes sure that the bottles cannot fall out, even if their force against one another disappears, as when they are no longer carried, but placed in a car trunk or so.
