bundled

1. 1
   verb

   Past tense and past participle of bundle.

   Security guards bundled the protester into a waiting van.

   The laptop came bundled with a year of free antivirus software.

   Note

   A regular verb, so one spelling covers both the simple past (she bundled the papers) and the participle (the papers were bundled). The small word that follows often decides the meaning: bundled up against the cold means dressed warmly, bundled off or bundled into a van means hustled away, and software that comes bundled with a computer is sold in one package with it.

2. 2
   adjective

   Gathered together and held so as to form a bundle.

   Thick bundled cables ran along the ceiling of the server room.

   Bundled wheat stood drying in rows across the field.
