What is a box drawer in a filing cabinet or pedestal?

A box drawer is a shallow drawer (typically 2"–6" deep) in a pedestal or filing unit designed for small supplies — pens, notepads, staplers, and similar items — rather than hanging files. Most pedestal files include one box drawer above the file drawer. Box drawers may include optional dividers or organizer trays.
