ABSTRACT:
A litter container is provided that is particularly adapted for use in urban environments. The litter container comprises an architecturally-styled, substantially cylindrical body which is bolted or otherwise suitably secured to a support surface. An arcuate door is disposed in the cylindrical body, the door comprising a substantially 180.degree. arcuate section of the cylindrical body. A hinge and mounting structure for the door is provided for pivotally mounting and cantilevering the door about a substantially vertical axis. The end of the door opposite the hinge is automatically locked in a closed or latched position by a tamper-proof latch which can only be actuated from the exterior of the litter container by a special key. A corrosion-resistant liner is disposed within the cylindrical body of the container and a chute centered on the axial centerline of the container communicates with the corrosion-resistant liner to direct litter therein. A high-capacity, heavy-duty, extremely durable litter container is thus provided for use in high traffic urban area where maintenance is a problem.
