The collapsible wall comprises a pair of side walls and a pair of end walls interconnected by vertical hinges with the end walls having additional intermediate vertical hinges whereby the end walls are collapsible to fold between the side walls to form a flat collapsed pack. A plurality of collapsed packs stack vertically side-by-side over a vertical stack of nested pallets. The pallets have nestable legs which inter-relate with indentations of a lid for the bin. The pallet and lid can have charge and discharge openings with closures thereto. The bin parts are in expanded foam for light weight.
