One piece container

A container that is moveable between a knockdown configuration, an intermediate configuration, and an erected configuration, the container comprising:

• first and second side-panel sections having respective first and second ends and respective first and second edges extending between respective first and second ends, said second edge of said first side panel section being positioned adjacent to but separated from said second edge of said second side-panel section when the container is in the knockdown configuration such that said second edges of said first and second side panel sections define a longitudinal centerline of said container;
• and
• a first end flap extending from said first ends of said first and second side panel sections, said first end flap extending across the longitudinal centerline of the container when the container is in the knockdown configuration;
• wherein each of said first and second side-panel sections includes a side portion fold line extending laterally across said side-panel sections, such that each side-panel section presents at least two side portions,
• wherein said first end flap includes a secondary fold line that is aligned with said longitudinal centerline of the container such that said first end flap defines first and second portions extending from respective first ends of said first and second side panel sections,
• wherein the container is configured to be moveable from the knockdown configuration to the intermediate configuration by folding said first end flap about said secondary fold line of said first end flap, thereby causing said first portion of said first end flap to fold against said second portion of said first end flap,
• wherein the container is prevented from moving from the intermediate configuration to the knockdown configuration when said first portion of said first end flap is secured to said second portion of said first end flap, and
• wherein the container is movable from the intermediate configuration to the erected configuration by moving said first side panel section away from said second side panel section while said first portion of said first end flap remains secured to said second portion of said first end flap.
