An eight bottle carrying case constructed from durable high density polyethylene is lightweight and easy to clean. The case can be nested when empty with similar cases to conserve space and, when full, can be stacked with like cases in an aligned array of cases or cross-stacked on two underlying like cases which are side-by-side and across the long axis of the above cross-stacked case or cases. To convert from aligned stacking of the cases to nesting thereof, alternate cases are turned 180 degrees relative to each other to alter the supportive and interfitting relationship of integral struts on the opposite long side walls of each case. The struts of each case also form bottle positioning means in the case.

A case for bottles comprising a generally rectangular body portion having an open top, a bottom wall, end walls and a pair of opposing side walls, plural spaced laterally aligned pairs of struts on the interiors of said side walls extending substantially from the bottom wall to the top of said case,

A case for bottles comprising a generally rectangular body portion having an open top, a bottom wall, end walls and a pair of opposing side walls, plural spaced laterally aligned pairs of struts on the interiors of said side walls extending substantially from the bottom wall to the top of said case, the struts on one side wall tapering longitudinally from bottom-to-top and the struts on the other side wall tapering longitudinally from top-to-bottom and opppositely to the direction of taper of said one side wall, whereby two bottle cases are stackable one upon the other with the struts of opposite taper of both cases arranged at opposite sides of both cases and having registering ends in supportive abutment, the two cases being nestable one within the other by rotating one case 180 degrees relative to the other case to thereby locate struts of like taper of both cases at the same sides of both cases in telescoping engagement.
