A bulk container which is disassemblable such that the interchangeable wall panels and the locking clips which connect the wall panels fit flatly into the flanged base assembly of the container. A base assembly provided with flanged sides holds the disasembled rectangular side panels. Each side panel is provided with a miter strip adjacent each side edge which extends below the lower edge in a leg. The leg supports the panel above the flange of the base assembly. Adjacent the miter strip at each side of the panel is a short slot. Locking clips engage a pair of panels at each corner by engaging the slots. The size reduction afforded by the disassembled condition of the container provides for more efficient shipping and transportation of the containers. Interchangeable parts reduce overall costs and the time required for assembly and disassembly.

In an improved portable and disassemblable bulk container having a bottom and side panels, the improvement comprising: at least one upright flange along the upper periphery of the bottom; miter strips secured adjacent to the normally vertical side edges of each of the panels and extending beyond the lower edge of the panels to support the panels in alignment with and above said flange; each of the side panels having vertical slots extending from the upper edges of the panels and spaced apart from each side edge of each of the panels; and removable, interchangeable locking clips spanning the beveled exterior of the corners formed by the adjacent panels with abutted miter strips placed in alignment with and above said flange and terminating in L-shaped bends to be slidably accepted in said vertical slots and to extend along the interior surface of the panels.
