A disposable hinged box (2) for surgical articles. The container (2) has certain design features to facilitate accounting of small surgical implements. An oblique bifurcation between the container cover (6) and container bottom (4), together with a guard (36, 38) forms a cradle within the cover for retaining implements therein. The container is particularly suited for holding syringes within the container cover (6) and accounting for needles, or suture, within the container bottom (4).
