A portable and collapsible storage locker formed of rigid, interconnected panels which, when fully assembled, form a self-standing, integrally strong unit and, when collapsed, fold together to occupy a minimal volumetric space. Opposed side walls are hingedly connected to a front frame, and opposed end walls are hingedly connected to a rear wall panel, both to fold inwardly in interlocking fashion such that the side walls overlie the rear panel and the end walls overlie the side walls within the region bounded by the front frame. The storage locker may optionally include a full or partial height door hinged to the front frame. The door may also include a lock if desirable. The side walls include means for supporting one or more shelves for dividing the interior space of the assembled locker and the shelves may be removable or optionally hinged to a side wall panel.

Having thus described my invention, I claim: 1. A collapsible storage locker comprising: a vertically oriented, rigid rear wall panel having a width (w1) and height (h1); a pair of opposed, horizontally oriented and spaced apart, rigid end wall panels each having a width (w2), height (h2) and thickness (t2), said width (w2) of each said end wall panels being less than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said height (h2) of each said end wall panels being less than one half the height (h1) of said rear wall panel; a pair of opposed, vertically oriented and spaced apart, rigid side wall panels each having a width (w3), height (h3) and thickness (t3), said width (w3) of each said side wall panels being less than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said height (h3) of each said side wall panels being less than the height (h1) of said rear wall panel; a pair of opposed peripheral spacers attached to opposite upper and lower edges of said rear wall panel, each said spacer extending from said rear wall a distance at least equal to twice the thickness (t3) of said side wall panels; first hinge members interconnecting said end wall panels to said opposed peripheral spacers to permit said end wall panels to fold inwardly toward said rear wall panel; an open, vertically oriented, rectangular front frame which spans a open width (w4) and a open height (h4), said open width (w4) of said frame being equal to or greater than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said open height (h4) being equal to or slightly greater than the height (h1) of said rear wall panel plus twice the thickness (t2) of said end wall panels; second hinge members interconnecting said side wall panels to opposed sides of said front frame to permit said side wall panels to fold inwardly toward said front frame, said side wall panels being centrally positioned and aligned on said frame such that when said side wall panels fold inwardly opposite ends of said side wall panels are spaced apart from opposed sides of said frame a distance equal to or slightly greater than the thickness (t2) of said end wall panels; and a vertically oriented, rigid door hingedly mounted on said front frame to span the open width (w4) of said frame and at least a portion of the open height (h4) of said frame; whereby in a collapsed condition, said side wall panels fold inwardly toward said front frame and said end wall panels fold inwardly to overlie said side wall panels when said front frame and said side wall panels are positioned in close proximity to said rear wall panel. 2. The collapsible storage locker as in claim 1, further including shelf rails secured interiorly on said side wall panels and at least one removable shelf supported on said shelf rails and having a width substantially corresponding to the spaced apart distance of said side wall panels. 3. The collapsible storage locker as in claim 1, said door including a lock to secure said door in a closed position with respect to said front frame. 4. The collapsible storage locker as in claim 1, said door having a sufficient height in order to span the entire open height (h4) of said front frame. 5. A collapsible storage locker comprising: a vertically oriented, rigid rear wall panel having a width (w1) and height (h1); a pair of opposed, horizontally oriented and spaced apart, rigid end wall panels each having a width (w2), height (h2) and thickness (t2), said width (w2) of each said end wall panels being less than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said height (h2) of each said end wall panels being less than one half the height (h1) of said rear wall panel; a pair of opposed, vertically oriented and spaced apart, rigid side wall panels each having a width (w3), height (h3) and thickness (t3), said width (w3) of each said side wall panels being less than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said height (h3) of each said side wall panels being less than the height (h1) of said rear wall panel; a pair of opposed peripheral spacers attached to opposite upper and lower edges of said rear wall panel, each said spacer extending from said rear wall a distance at least equal to twice the thickness (t3) of said side wall panels; first hinge members interconnecting said end wall panels to said opposed peripheral spacers to permit said end wall panels to fold inwardly toward said rear wall panel; an open, vertically oriented, rectangular front frame which spans a open width (w4) and a open height (h4), said open width (w4) of said frame being equal to or greater than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said open height (h4) being equal to or slightly greater than the height (h1) of said rear wall panel plus twice the thickness (t2) of said end wall panels; second hinge members interconnecting said side wall panels to opposed sides of said front frame to permit said side wall panels to fold inwardly toward said front frame, said side wall panels being centrally positioned and aligned on said frame such that when said side wall panels fold inwardly opposite ends of said side wall panels are spaced apart from opposed sides of said frame a distance equal to or slightly greater than the thickness (t2) of said end wall panels; and locking tabs on said end wall panels and tab receivers on said front frame to permit interlocking engagement between said locking tabs on said end wall panels and said tab receivers on said front frame; whereby in a collapsed condition, said side wall panels fold inwardly toward said front frame and said end wall panels fold inwardly to overlie said side wall panels when said front frame and said side wall panels are positioned in close proximity to said rear wall panel. 6. A collapsible storage locker comprising: a vertically oriented, rigid rear wall panel having a width (w1) and height (h1); a pair of opposed, horizontally oriented and spaced apart, rigid end wall panels each having a width (w2), height (h2) and thickness (t2), said width (w2) of each said end wall panels being less than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said height (h2) of each said end wall panels being less than one half the height (h1) of said rear wall panel; a pair of opposed, vertically oriented and spaced apart, rigid side wall panels each having a width (w3), height (h3) and thickness (t3), said width (w3) of each said side wall panels being less than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said height (h3) of each said side wall panels being less than the height (h1) of said rear wall panel; a pair of opposed peripheral spacers attached to opposite upper and lower edges of said rear wall panel, each said spacer extending from said rear wall a distance at least equal to twice the thickness (t3) of said side wall panels; first hinge members interconnecting said end wall panels to said opposed peripheral spacers to permit said end wall panels to fold inwardly toward said rear wall panel; an open, vertically oriented, rectangular front frame which spans a open width (w4) and a open height (h4), said open width (w4) of said frame being equal to or greater than the width (w1) of said rear wall panel and said open height (h4) being equal to or slightly greater than the height (h1) of said rear wall panel plus twice the thickness (t2) of said end wall panels; second hinge members interconnecting said side wall panels to opposed sides of said front frame to permit said side wall panels to fold inwardly toward said front frame, said side wall panels being centrally positioned and aligned on said frame such that when said side wall panels fold inwardly opposite ends of said side wall panels are spaced apart from opposed sides of said frame a distance equal to or slightly greater than the thickness (t2) of said end wall panels; and locking tabs on said side wall panels and tab receivers on said rear wall panel to permit interlocking engagement between said locking tabs on said side wall panels and said tab receivers on said rear wall panel; whereby in a collapsed condition, said side wall panels fold inwardly toward said front frame and said end wall panels fold inwardly to overlie said side wall panels when said front frame and said side wall panels are positioned in close proximity to said rear wall panel.
