Wooden Crates:

A crate is a large shipping container, often made of wood, typically used to transport or store large, heavy or awkward items. Steeland aluminium crates are also used.

 

Crates can be made of Wood, Plastic, Metal or other materials. Metal is rarely used because of its weight. When metal is used, a crate is often constructed as an ‘open crate’ and may be termed a ‘cage’.
