The receptacle (10) has a base (16), and open top, and walls (18,20,22) extending from the open top to the base (16) in an inwardly tapered fashion. The lid (12) is shaped to conform to the open top of the receptacle and can be folded open against the rear wall (22) to co-extend with the rear wall (22) such that like containers can be nested one within the other with the lid (12) extending into the receiving receptacle.
