Abstract
A storage bin assembly includes a first bin equipped with a lid, a pair of wheels and a telescoping handle, the first bin having a dogbone cross-section that provides for two larger storage portions for storing containers and a smaller storage portion between the two larger storage portions, the dogbone configuration preventing the stored containers from moving about in the first bin while providing a space for storing additional items in the first bin. A second bin also having the dogbone cross-section can be stacked on the first bin where the lid of the first bin is configured with at least a recessed region that receives a raised region at a bottom of the second bin for improved lateral stability between the stacked first and second bins.
