ABSTRACT:
A telescoping support apparatus for supporting at least one refuse container, the support apparatus comprising a ground cylinder disposable in the ground and having an upper end portion extendible a selected distance above the surface of the ground; a support cylinder supported by the ground cylinder and slidably movable between a retracted position within the ground cylinder and an extended position substantially above the surface of the ground, the support cylinder having an upper portion and a lower portion, the upper portion having an outside diameter less than the outside diameter of the lower portion so that a support shoulder is formed at the junction of the upper and lower portions, the lower portion having a first detent slot formed therein; first stop means supported within the lower portion of the support cylinder for selectively locking the support cylinder in the extended position, the first stop means pivotally supported in the lower portion of the support cylinder so that an end portion of the first stop means is selectively extendible through the first detent slot of the lower portion of the support cylinder and prevents movement of the support cylinder to its retracted position when the first stop means is extended through the first detent slot, the first stop means selectively removable from the first detent slot to permit the support cylinder to be retracted into the ground cylinder; support means slidably disposed about the support cylinder for supporting the container thereon, the support means adapted to engage the support shoulder of the support cylinder when the support cylinder is in the extended position and to engage the upper end portion of the ground cylinder when the support cylinder is in the retracted position; and handle means secured to the upper portion of the support cylinder for selectively moving the support cylinder between the extended position and the retracted position.
