Collapsible Crates

What are Collapsible Crates?

Collapsible crates are heavy-duty containers designed to store and transport goods while providing the unique ability to collapse or fold flat when empty. Typically made from industrial-grade plastic or reinforced materials, these crates are engineered to withstand frequent handling and heavy loads. For heavy-duty, large-volume storage containers, we also offer Bulk Storage Containers.

Unlike standard crates, collapsible crates significantly reduce the space required for storage when not in use. Many models also feature reinforced sides, secure locking mechanisms, and handles for easy lifting and handling with forklifts or pallet jacks. If you need a container that also saves space when empty but without folding completely flat, view our Nesting Crates.

Benefits of Collapsible Crates

Investing in collapsible crates offers numerous advantages for businesses handling goods regularly:

• Superior Space-Saving Design – Crates collapse flat when empty, dramatically freeing up valuable warehouse or transport space and allowing for optimised storage that maximises available area.

• Durable and Long-Lasting Construction – Made from high-quality, industrial-grade materials to endure frequent use and heavy loads, ensuring they are long-lasting and reliable. For general durable storage, check our Plastic Storage Tubs.

• Safe and Efficient Handling – Keeps contents protected during storage and transport, reducing the risk of damage, spillage, or workplace accidents. They are compatible with forklifts, pallet jacks, and manual handling for efficient movement.

• Flexible and Adaptable – The unique folding design makes them suitable for a variety of storage, transport, and operational needs, accommodating different storage requirements. For larger, forklift-compatible handling, we supply Pallet Bins.

• Versatile Applications and Cost-Effective – Suitable for warehouses, workshops, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centres, they reduce storage costs, protect materials, and improve operational workflow efficiency.

Collapsible crates offer a practical and reliable way to store and transport goods while maintaining a safe, organised, and productive workspace.

Why Invest in Collapsible Crates?

For any Australian business dealing with high-volume inbound or outbound logistics, opting for Collapsible Crates offers an immediate and measurable return on investment (ROI). The ability to instantly reclaim up to 80% of storage volume when the crates are empty drastically reduces warehousing and return transport costs.

This system also enhances staff efficiency and morale by providing flexible, robust, and consistent handling units that are simple to manage—removing the strain and time waste associated with dealing with fixed, bulky containers that clutter up valuable workspace when not actively in use. For mobile tool and part storage, we offer Louvre Panels & Trolleys.

Industries and Applications

Collapsible crates are widely used across industries where storage efficiency, material handling, and transport flexibility are important. Common applications include:

• Warehouses and Distribution Centres – Stores inventory compactly and allows easy transport to different areas. For organising components onto a dedicated system, view our Storage Bin Racks.

• Manufacturing Facilities – Holds raw materials, components, or finished products for smooth production workflow. For segregating small items within a container, check our Compartment Boxes.

• Workshops and Garages – Organises tools, parts, and equipment for quick access and transport. When you need extreme heavy-duty capacity, we have Mega Bins.

• Retail Stockrooms – Moves merchandise efficiently while saving space when crates are not in use. For wall-mounted component storage, explore Louvre Panels.

• Food Processing and Agriculture – Provides hygienic, robust storage for produce, ingredients, or bulk materials.

By combining durability, collapsibility, and accessibility, collapsible crates help businesses streamline operations, reduce handling time, and improve storage efficiency. For very small component storage, use our Small Parts Bins.
