Abstract
Container systems for transporting one or more objects, and methods of using, are provided. The container system includes a substantially rectangular symmetrical tray for supporting the one or more objects, the tray being unitarily constructed and defining a base, two opposing longitudinal sides extending away from the base, and two opposing latitudinal sides extending away from the base. Further, the container system includes at least two runners defined by the underside of the base and extending the length of the base in the direction of the longitudinal sides. The container system further has a first rope engaged with two latitudinal first holes positioned on a first latitudinal side and a second rope engaged with two latitudinal second holes positioned on a second latitudinal side.

A container system for transporting one or more objects across a surface comprising:
- a unitarily constructed tray for supporting the one or more objects defining:
- a base;
- two opposing longitudinal sides extending away from the base;
- two opposing latitudinal sides extending away from the base;
- at least two runners extending along the base in the direction of the longitudinal sides;
- at least one longitudinal handle defined by each of the longitudinal sides;
- at least two longitudinal supports defined by each of the longitudinal sides, positioned proximally to the at least one longitudinal handle, and extending away from the base for providing longitudinal support;
- a first rope engaged with two latitudinal first holes positioned on a first latitudinal side;
- a second rope engaged with two latitudinal second holes positioned on a second latitudinal side;
- a first pull support positioned inside of the first latitudinal side and extending between, and engaged with, ends of the first rope;
- a second pull support positioned inside of the second latitudinal side and extending between, and engaged with, ends of the second rope.
A method for transporting one or more objects, comprising:
- placing the one or more objects in a unitarily constructed tray for supporting the one or more objects, the tray defining:
- a base;
- two opposing longitudinal sides extending away from the base;
- two opposing latitudinal sides extending away from the base;
- at least two runners extending along the base in the direction of the longitudinal sides;
- at least one longitudinal handle defined by each of the longitudinal sides;
- at least two longitudinal supports defined by each of the longitudinal sides, positioned proximally to the at least one longitudinal handle, and extending away from the base for providing longitudinal support;
- pulling a first rope engaged with two latitudinal first holes positioned on a first latitudinal side for transporting the one or more objects in a first direction,
- wherein each end of the first rope is engaged with a first pull support positioned internally of the first latitudinal side for providing support.
A container system for transporting one or more objects across a surface comprising:
- a unitarily constructed tray for supporting the one or more objects defining:
- a base;
- two opposing longitudinal sides extending away from the and having a rounded rail on an edge farthest from the base;
- at least two runners extending along the base in the direction of the longitudinal sides;
- two opposing latitudinal sides extending away from the base and having a rounded rail on an edge farthest from the base;
- wherein a first latitudinal side defines a first handle, a second latitudinal side defines a second handle, a first longitudinal side defines two longitudinal handles, and a second longitudinal side defines another two longitudinal handles;
- at least two longitudinal supports defined by each of the longitudinal sides, positioned proximally to the at least one longitudinal handle, and extending away from the base for providing longitudinal support;
- a first rope engaged with two latitudinal first holes positioned on the first latitudinal side, wherein the first rope is further engaged with a first pull support extending between two ends of the first rope for providing transport support;
- a second rope engaged with two latitudinal second holes positioned on the second latitudinal side, wherein the second rope is further engaged with a second pull support extending between two ends of the second rope for providing transport support.
