A container assembly for transporting and storing liquids and semi-liquids, the container assembly including a rigid frame supporting a collapsible fabric bag which contains the liquid. The bag is hung at its upper end on tubes in the frame that are threaded through loops in the upper ends of the bag side walls. An elastically deformable support plate is in the frame for cushioning the shock of the bag during transport. The frame is collapsible to enable collapse of the bag after it is emptied.
