Abstract

A bottle crate 10 includes a base-defining portion 14, a wall portion 12 bounding, and extending upwardly from, the base-defining portion to define a cavity. A primary socket-defining means (web 32) is arranged in the cavity for sub-dividing the cavity into a plurality of primary sockets 34 in each of which at least a part of a bottle is removably receivable. A seat-defining member 38 is arranged in at least some of the primary sockets. Each member 38 defines a seat on which the bottom of a bottle is receivable. A secondary socket-defining means 42 is arranged between each seat-defining member 38 and base-defining portion 14. Each means 42 defines a secondary socket 44 which opens out into a bottom region of portion 14 and each socket 44 is shaped and dimensioned to accommodate the closure of a bottle therein. A bearing means 54 forms part of each secondary socket-defining means 42 for bearing on a rim of the closure of a bottle in a subadjacent crate.
