A container is disclosed having corner supports 30 at each inside corner for increasing the strength and weight bearing capacity of the corners.

The flaps 18 comprise a first portion 18a hingedly connected to a second portion 18b such that the second portion 18b extends across the corner to form the corner support 30 when the flap 18 is folded in.
