• a plurality of surfaces, including bottom and top surfaces, and sidewall surfaces extending therebetween, said plurality of surfaces are connected together to define an enclosure space having an upper region configured to accommodate said one or more garments, and a bottom part including said bottom surface;
• a bar extending between two of said sidewall surfaces in the upper region of the enclosure for supporting at least one hanger hanging a garment;
• and
• a supporting element shaped as a topless box being configured to fit and surround the bottom part of the enclosure, wherein said supporting element is more rigid than at least a higher portion of the enclosure to thereby lower the center of mass of said enclosure and thereby prevent tilt and stabilize the enclosure during conveying, said supporting element configured to be positioned on an adaptor having inner spaces configured to allow a fork of the robot to progress below the enclosure while the enclosure is supported by the adaptor.
