A container for transporting glass sheets includes a bottom structure having a front edge and a back wall and first and second side walls extending upwardly from the bottom structure. The container also includes a floor support mechanism coupled to the bottom structure. The floor support mechanism includes a floor support member extending substantially horizontally from the back wall a first distance proximate to the front edge of the bottom structure. The floor support mechanism also includes a foam rail support member coupled to the floor support member. The foam rail support member extends substantially horizontally from the back wall a second distance proximate to the front edge of the bottom structure. The floor support mechanism further includes a foam rail coupled to the foam rail support member. The foam rail extends substantially horizontally from approximately the back wall a third distance that is less than the second distance.
