Abstract: A produce transport and cooling container of a generally boxlike shape with bottom support panels having retroverse tabs and apertures which strengthen the container bottom as progressively heavier loads are added. Lid and drainage apertures, and stacking projections, allow the containers to be stacked in a stable manner, and cool water misted over the produce to keep it fresh during transit.

Abstract: A portable, open top utility tote container constructed and shaped from a lightweight yet durable, semirigid, corrugated plastic material used to store or transport an unlimited variety of household or industrial items. The receptacle portion of the container is formed from a single sheet of material, cut, scored into panels, and folded to the shape of a tapered rectangular box. End panels and side flaps are folded over a reinforcing rim which runs around the top perimeter of the container, the end panels being cut out to form hand grips at opposing ends of the container, and the side flaps creating a firm stacking shoulder upon which the container may rest when stacked on other similar containers. The single sheet of material from which the receptable is formed, when extended in a single plane, has a configuration confined by a rectangle whose length and width are the distances between the outer edges of the end panels and side flaps.
