ABSTRACT:
A system for covering a transport container is disclosed which is especially useful with a load lugger or retriever type truck. The system provides a cover storage assembly which may be operated to dispose a flexible container cover outwardly beyond the end of the transport vehicle and over a top of a transport container positioned behind the transport vehicle. An attachment mechanism on the outer end of the container serves to attach the flexible cover to the container prior to loading the container onto the transport vehicle. When the container is then loaded onto the transport vehicle, the cover storage assembly retracts the resulting excess cover length. After the transport container is loaded onto the vehicle, it may then be transported to its destination and unloaded. The cover may then be removed by unloading the container from the vehicle, and detaching the cover from the container. The cover storage assembly then retracts the cover from over the top of the container.
