A stackable transportable apparatus and method for storing or transporting at least one cylinder, having first and second lateral sides, a front side, a rear side, a bottom side and an opening in the top. The opening in the top and the bottom side are in a plane that is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis. Adjacent sides of each container are operably coupled to form a wall of the container. The wall includes front and rear proximal edges, and front and rear distal, edges. The front and rear proximal edges are closer to the center of a vehicle, by which the container is transported, than the front and rear distal edges. A top portion of the front side of the wall of the container, and the front proximal and distal edges have a plurality of open slot grooves.

This patent provides a reinforcing member which is applied to a storage box. The reinforcing member is roughly in a shape of a frame, comprising a first annular structure, a second annular structure, and a positioning portion. The thickness of the second annular structure is not greater than the thickness of the first annular structure, and the second annular structure is surrounded by the first annular structure. There is a gap between the first annular structure and the second annular structure wherein the gap length of the gap is not shorter than 0.5 cm. The positioning portion is disposed in the gap. Wherein the storage box includes a box body, a bottom surface of the box body includes a positioning structure, and the positioning portion of the reinforcing member may be connected to the positioning structure.
