Abstract

The present invention provides a container (10) for holding product (26) therein during shipment and being returned for reuse that has a body (12), tracks (52) supported by the body (12), and a plurality of support member assemblies (35), each having a pair of end members (50) engaged with and moveable along the tracks (26) and a support member (28) extending between and connected to the end members (50). The support member may be a straight tubular member (90) or a flexible cable (126) or a non-linear member (194). The support member assemblies (35) support dunnage (66) for supporting products for storage or shipment. The support members (28) may have product receptacles (32) for receiving and retaining portions of products (26). The container (10) may have multiple layers or levels of support member assemblies (35) and associated dunnage (66).
