A storage apparatus has first and second bins with configurations that match. The bins have movable supports that enable the bins to be stacked on each other and attached to each other when employing the bins to store items in the bins and move the items from one area to another by moving the attached bins. The first and second bins are also nestable together to store the bins in a minimum of storage space when the bins are not in use.

A tier sheet includes a deck having a support surface. A plurality of walls extend downward to define lower recesses for receiving the upper ends of containers therebelow. In one embodiment, the tier sheet is a single thermoformed sheet and includes a plurality of upper recesses formed in the deck, each upper recess defined between an outer wall and a column. In another embodiment, the tier sheet is injection molded.

Beverage container packing trays, systems, and techniques of packing beverage containers include at least a beverage container tray including beverage container contoured compartments configured to receive one or more beverage containers in a lay flat configuration. The beverage container contoured compartments include at least a cradle element, a conical element, and a neck support element. The beverage container tray includes thermo pack compartments that house transport thermo packs adjacent to at least a portion of the beverage containers.

A protective device comprising a first protective element associable with a first load unit including a first lateral wall provided with an internal surface intended to be positioned against a sidewall of the first load unit, a second protective element associable with the second load unit including a first lateral wall provided with an internal surface, and an upper wall provided with a lower surface orthogonal and contiguous to the internal surface of the first lateral wall, and wherein, in use, the internal surface of the first lateral wall of the first protective element and the internal surface of the first lateral wall of the second protective element are arranged in the same plane and adhere at least partly to the sidewall of the first load unit and to the sidewall of the second load unit respectively.

The present disclosure is directed to containers comprising one or more magnets such that the containers, when placed adjacent to one another, may be magnetically coupled together.

A set of connectors connects buckets, such as five-gallon buckets, to each other, to the ground, to dimensional lumber, and/or to pipe for the purpose of producing objects such as benches, stepstools, tables, sawhorses, shelters, platforms, etc.

A device to help prevent recycling bins from falling over due to strong winds. The device broadens the base of the recycling bins and adds friction to the bottom of the recycling bin to make it harder to move. The device also provides a handle and a stacking feature to store the recycling bins.

A stackable container system is configured to provide stacked receptacles for receiving bulk material therein. The stackable container system includes a first receptacle configured to provide a respective stacked receptacle. The first receptacle includes a receptable bottom, a receptable top, and a receptacle side extending along an upright container axis between the receptacle bottom and top, with the first receptacle presenting a container chamber. The receptacle top is configured to at least partly support another one of the stacked receptacles stacked relative thereto along the upright container axis. The receptacle top and the receptacle side have, respectively, a top peripheral margin and a side peripheral margin that extend laterally about the upright container axis, with at least part of the top peripheral margin being laterally outboard of the side peripheral margin. At least part of the top peripheral margin is interconnected to the side peripheral margin along a transition section that extends laterally between the receptacle top and the receptacle side.

A container includes a receptacle including an upright receptacle side and a receptacle bottom that cooperate to at least partly define a container chamber. The bottom presents a peripheral margin, with the side being attached to the bottom along the peripheral margin and extending upwardly relative to the bottom along an upright container axis. The receptacle further includes a drain configured to permit material flow out of the chamber, with the drain intersecting the bottom to define a drain opening that fluidly communicates with the chamber. The drain opening is spaced inboard from the peripheral margin and is laterally offset from the container axis in an offset direction. The bottom includes first and second floor sections extending inboard from the peripheral margin and joined relative to each other along a first gutter area adjacent the drain opening. The first floor section slopes downwardly toward the first gutter area in the offset direction and the second floor section slopes downwardly toward the first gutter area in a direction opposite the offset direction, with the floor sections configured to cooperatively advance material within the chamber toward the drain opening.

A tray is provided for supporting and transporting layers of bottles. The tray includes a plurality of pockets for holding bottles separated by channels. A sleeve having a plurality of panels is placed in the channels. The sleeve and bottles support additional layers of trays.
