Abstract

A collapsible container (100) for stackable items can comprise a hollow cylinder (106) of a resilient material. The cylinder (106) can be open at both ends (114) and can include a retainer (118) at each end (114). The cylinder (106) can have a plurality of lines of weakness (104) extending along at least a portion of the length of the cylinder (106) such that the container (100) can be collapsed by application of a nominal force.
