What are box-bottom hanging folders and when should I use them?

Box-bottom hanging folders have a wider, accordion-style base that expands to hold thick documents, tabbed manila folders, or bulky items that won't fit in a standard 1/5-cut hanging folder. They come in 1-inch, 2-inch, and 3-inch bottom widths. Use box-bottom folders when a single file category contains multiple sub-folders — for example, a client folder that holds contracts, correspondence, and invoices as separate internal folders. Standard hanging folders collapse around thin files; box-bottom folders stay upright and accessible even when they're bulky. They work in any filing cabinet that accepts standard hanging file rails.
