Abstract: The present invention provides for a container that may be repeatedly used for moving and stored in a collapsed position when not in use. The container includes means for both longitudinal and transverse reinforcement of closed opposing flaps that make up the top and bottom portions of the container. In one embodiment is provided a container comprising: a plurality of side walls configured to provide a collapsible container, where each side wall is in operable communication with two other side walls; two foldable flaps in operable communication with each side wall; and at least one securing strip in operable communication with at least one of the foldable flaps, where the securing strip provides structure for releasable attachment with three different side walls and for securing four of the flaps in a closed position to form a container bottom or top.
