A storage and/or transport container of plastics material with a rectangular bottom and longitudinal and transverse side walls extending upwardly from the rectangular bottom. The upper edges of the side walls define a rectangular opening having a size greater than the rectangular bottom. Two support members are hinged to the container adjacent the upper edges of the transverse side walls. The support members can be swung from a first position in which they leave the rectangular opening clear to the transverse side walls into a second position in which they are located in the rectangular opening adjacent the transverse side walls so as to partially bridge the openings. In the second position, the distance between the sides of the support members facing each other is smaller than the width of the container bottom the two transverse side walls. The ends of the support members have support walls which extend transversely of the longitudinal direction of the support members. The support walls are pivotably mounted on support blocks which are arranged remote from the container corners on the upper edges of the longitudinal side walls. In the first position, each support member is received and supported in a groove-like upwardly open rim portion of the upper edge of each transverse side wall. In the second position, the ends and the support walls of each support member are received and supported in troughs which are open towards the top and toward the container interior and are formed in the upper edges of the longitudinal side walls.
