A nesting system for securing a container is disclosed. The container could be a soft-sided backpack style cooler. Such a system may include a cooler with a sidewall, a top, a base, a vertical axis extending from the base to the top, and an insulated interior region. The base may have a bottom plate portion with at least one protrusion extending down from bottom plate portion and one or more holes formed through protrusion orthogonal to the vertical axis. The protrusion could be a wall that extends downward from the bottom plate portion of the base around the entire perimeter of the base. In addition, the protrusion could have an irregular profile with feet that extends further down then the rest of the wall. The system may also include a nesting platform with a bottom tray and a vertical wall extending up from the bottom tray. The bottom tray and vertical wall may be sized to allow the base to fit within tray and vertical wall. In addition, a spring-loaded pin may be attached to the vertical wall and configured to take a receded pin position when the spring is compressed and an extended pin position when the spring is at equilibrium. A receded pin position might be one that allows a protrusion from the base of the container, which could be a cooler, to engage with the nesting platform such that holes formed through the base are aligned with the spring-loaded pins. In so doing, the spring-loaded pins may be released and capable of assuming an extended pin position in which the pins extend at least partially through holes and effectively secure the container and its base to the nesting platform.
