ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for picking up elongated irregular shaped objects, such as beverage cans and/or bottles, is shown. A lightweight housing is provided with an opening at an upper and a lower end thereof. Parallel springs extend across the lower opening to receive cans and/or bottles therethrough and to hold them inside the housing. A pivotal handle across the upper opening allows for ease of removal of collected refuse. A litter pickup stick is removably mounted on a side of the housing. As paper is picked up with the litter pickup stick, it can be removed by a notch in the upper opening of the housing, and the paper litter is maintained separate from solid objects, such as bottles and cans, by a pivotal gate inside the housing. The housing is of sufficient length to pick up refuse without bending.
