A two segment lid (7, 8) for a container (1) having a base (2) and side and end walls (3) upstanding from the base (2) and forming an enclosure. The segments (7, 8) are held captive by link means (9) to the side walls (3). Lid segment hooks (13, 26) are engagable with hook receivers on the enclosure to secure the lid segments (7, 8) in position over the open top of the enclosure. The links (9) allow sliding movement of the lid segments (7, 8) to release the lid hooks (13, 26) from the hook receivers and allow pivoting movement of the lid segments (7, 8) to rest positions to uncover the open top of the enclosure. Securement means (20, 23) is provided to prevent sliding movement of the lid segments (7, 8).
