A stacking container for shaped parts such as stamped sheet metal parts, comprising:
- a frame including vertically spaced upper and lower holding ledges, each ledge containing a row of spaced apart profile notches for receiving upper and lower edges of shaped parts, and
- a safety ledge disposed adjacent to and along said upper ledge and including a stop surface, said safety ledge being pivotably mounted about a horizontal axis extending parallel to said upper holding ledge for vertical movement between
- a lower position in which said stop surface is disposed higher than a lower edge of said notches of said upper holding ledge and lower than a floor of said notches of said upper ledge in overlying relation to a portion of a shaped part to prevent such shaped part from rising out of said notches of said lower holding ledge, and
- an upper position wherein said stop surface is raised from said lower position sufficiently to permit such shaped part to be raised out of said notches of said lower holding ledge.
