A collapsible container for suspended freight, especially for conveying garments by air, the walls and roof being of rigid waterproof panels supported upon a standard floor pallet. In the preferred case, the roof slides on rollers over two opposite side walls and is provided with parallel horizontal bars rigidly attached to its inner surface for the suspension of the garments. The weight carried by the side walls is distributed over the floor pallet by supporting the side walls on a weight distributing framework. The component panels may be separated for return flights and stacked horizontally to save space.
