From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Milk crates are square or rectangular boxes made out of heavy-duty plastic, hardened aluminum, or galvanized steel. They are used to transport milk and other products from dairies to retail establishments.
Normally, milk crates are owned by local dairies and are used for their intended purpose. However, they are often illegally appropriated and used as boxes for packing and storage, or to construct inexpensive bookshelves, computer desks, TV stands, etc. They are also used for impromptu outdoor seating. Milk crates are also often used to store vinyl records.
