A stackable and nestable container having a bottom, opposed first and second end walls and opposed first and second side walls extending upwardly from the bottom and collectively defining an open top. First and second bales are mounted on and extend between the first and second side walls for movement between a stacking position extending into the open top of the container and a nesting position resting on a top edge of the first end wall. First and second bale-receiving channels are formed in the bottom of the container and extend between the first and second side walls directly below the stacking position of the first and second bales and are sized and shaped to receive the first and second bales of a like container when in the stacking position to define a stack of containers.

A collapsible container according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a base and a plurality of walls, including a first wall, collapsible onto the base. A support is movable between a first position and a second position relative to the first wall, such that an identical container would stack on the collapsible container at a first height when the support is in the first position and at a second height when the support is in the second position. In another embodiment, different stacking heights can be achieved by rotating the upper container 180 degrees relative to the lower container.

In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful for reusable containers and item delivery using reusable containers. In several embodiments, the reusable containers described herein include removable divider walls that can be used to selectively divide an interior of the container into multiple smaller portions. By a further approach, the container and divider walls can have cooperating components to mount the divider wall to the container. In some embodiments, the reusable containers described herein can also include bag handle holding features so that bags placed therein are prevented from spilling contents during transport.

A paint container (10) comprising a main body (12) for receiving paint wherein the main body comprises a side wall (16) and an outwardly tapering rim portion (18) at an upper end of the side wall (16). A tubular member (14) is provided, a lower end of which is receivable within the rim portion (18). First connectors (26) are provided on an outer surface of the tubular member (14) and second connectors (27) are provided on an inner surface (30) of the rim portion (18). Each of the first connectors (26) engages with a corresponding one of the second connectors (27) such that the tubular member (14) is supported within the rim portion (18) to define an annular aperture between the lower end of the tubular member (14) and the main body (12) of the paint container (10).
