Pressing E in any Valve game using the Source Engine (Portal 2 does) will let you pick up objects if you are standing next to them.

This is explained at the start of the game, and if im not wrong every time you look at a crate, its the button E (for PC) if you havent remaped the buttons. If you have done so go check out your options -> keyboard.

Press the action button, which if you didnt change the key configuration should be set to the letter "E" by default on the PC version.

In most valve games, the "E" button performs actions involving picking up, pressing, and activating things

In all Portal games, you use the "E" button (for PC) to pick up crates.

You may press the 'Use' Button near one, on PC it's E but on the other systems it's usually told what the button is.
