1. A transport container comprising:

  • a base;

    a plurality of side walls extending from the base, the side walls being adjacent to each other at edges to form a container having an inner cavity, each of the side walls being formed of a first wall panel and a second wall panel connected to the first wall panel by a hinge, adjacent first wall panels being selectively connectable and disconnectable to each other at edges of the side walls to allow the first wall panels to fold down relative to the second wall panels thereby shortening the transport container;

    wherein at least one of the second wall panels is slidably connected to adjacent second wall panels by edge connectors such that the side wall with the slidably connected second wall panel may be slid in a direction essentially perpendicular to the base for access to the inner cavity, the edge connectors preventing the adjacent second wall panels from pulling away from the slidably connected second wall panel in other directions.
