A container 10 is disclosed having a universal bracket system 300 that allows attachment of the container 10 to a plurality of upstanding outdoor supports including posts, angle iron, and signs supported in cylindrical frameworks. In the preferred embodiment, the container 10 has a box 100 with a lid 200 pivotally attached thereto. The box 100 has a bracket system 300 comprised of an upper bracket 310, a central bracket 320 and a lower bracket 340 which have complementary geometric relationships that facilitate attachment to the multiple structures.

1. A bracket system for a document container comprising: an upper bracket extending from the document container;a central bracket extending from the container at a position below the upper bracket, having a pair of hollow posts, a central flange extending between the hollow posts, a U-shaped notch in the central flange, and a channel in general alignment with the notch;a lower bracket extending from the container at a position below the central bracket, having a pair of posts, a lower flange extending between the posts, a U-shaped notch in the lower flange, and a channel in general alignment with the notch; and,wherein the upper, central, and lower brackets are integrally molded on a common surface. 2. The bracket system of claim 1, further comprising: a bevel located on each of the upper edges of the notches in the central and lower brackets. 3. The bracket system of claim 1, further comprising: a plurality of supports extending outward from the container, orthogonal to the flange. 4. The bracket system of claim 1, the central bracket further comprising: a pair of outermost supports extending outward from the container, orthogonal to the flange, and opposite the hollow posts; and,a hole extending through each outermost support. 5. The bracket system of claim 1, the central bracket further comprising: a centermost support extending perpendicular from the bottom of the notch; and,a generally semicircular relief extending across the centermost support and the flange in substantial alignment with the channel. 6. The bracket system of claim 1, the lower bracket further comprising: a pair of outermost supports extending outward from the container, orthogonal to the flange, and opposite the posts; and,a hole extending through each outermost support. 7. The bracket system of claim 1, the lower bracket further comprising: a centermost support extending perpendicular from the bottom of the notch; and,a generally semicircular relief extending across the centermost support and the flange in substantial alignment with the channel. 8. The bracket system of claim 1, further comprising: the posts of the lower bracket have blind holes therein. 9. The bracket system of claim 1, further comprising: the upper bracket having a generally inverted u-shape, with an interior channel. 10. The bracket system of claim 1, further comprising: the surface being a surface of the container.
