Collapsible indoor and outdoor containers having a collapsible wall section with shape-retaining characteristics are disclosed. In particular, collapsible coolers, fish bins, and wheeled vertical bins are provided. The collapsible wall section may include foldable tiers of a flexible material, each tier having at least one stable, relatively expanded position and at least one stable, relatively collapsed position; and an intervening, non-folding tier composed of a different, relatively stiff or rigid material. The coolers, fish bins, and wheeled vertical bins are each advantageously provided with a collapsible insert container that nests within and collapses together with a shell of the respective container, the respective wall folds of the shell and insert meshing together to result in a combined collapsed vertical dimension as small or nearly as small as that of the collapsed shell alone.

A container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching assemblies. The latching assembly may comprise a latch body, a locking member, a biasing member, and an activating member. Additional features of the container may include handles and strength increasing features. The base and lid may also feature attachment points for various accessories. A carry strap may attach to the base of the container to allow a user to lift and carry the container. The container may also have a wheels attached to the bottom portion and/or across the bottom portion to one side of the sidewall structure. In addition, in exemplary containers with wheels, a pull handle may be attached to a side opposite the wheels. The lid may include a lid support member that can act as a molle board to releasably secure items to the lid support member while also providing structural support to the lid.

Disclosed are methods for opening containers having child resistant closures. The methods include applying inward radial pressure on a resilient guard of a container to deflect the guard inwardly, followed by applying upward pressure to an exposed front tab of a cap of the container to open the cap.

A container includes a case that defines a storage space and an opening at a top surface of the case, a case coupler that is configured to couple to an upper edge of at least one of the lateral walls of the case, the case coupler including a shaft, a cover fixing unit configured to couple to the shaft of the case coupler and to rotate about the shaft, a cover configured to detachably couple to an upper side of the case coupler and configured to open and close at least a portion of the opening of the case, and a hinge that is coupled to the cover and that defines a seating portion configured to receive the shaft, the cover being configured to rotate about the shaft. The cover fixing unit comprises cover fixing units that are located, respectively, at lateral walls of the case that face each other.

A container includes a body defining an interior and an opening that leads to the interior. A cap removably affixes over the opening to move the container between an opened position and a closed position. A child resistant closure moves between an engaged position and a disengaged position, and prevents moving the container from the closed position to the opened position when in the engaged position.
