From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Source link below.
A bulk box, also known as a bulk bin, skid box, pallet box, bin box, gaylord, or octabin, is a pallet-size box used for storage and shipping of bulk or packaged goods. Bulk boxes can be designed to hold many different types of items such as plastic pellets, watermelons, electronic components, and even liquids; some bulk boxes are stackable.
In the U.S. and Canada, the term gaylord is sometimes used for triple wall corrugated pallet boxes; this is due to the first bulk bins being manufactured by the original Gaylord Container Company of St. Louis which was acquired by Crown Zellerbach of San Francisco in 1955. https://tinyurl.com/ycx2sfkh
