ABSTRACT:
The present invention pertains to an apparatus for lifting a container. The lifting apparatus has an elongate member having a first end and a second end and device for lockingly engaging the elongate member to the container, such as a fifth wheel plate attached to the elongate member which lockingly engages with the container. There is a first end attachment connected in proximity to the first end for connection to a mechanism which lifts the container through the apparatus and a second end attachment connected in proximity to the second end for connection to the mechanism which lifts the container through the apparatus. The invention is also a system for tilting a container. The system includes a fifth wheel plate and device for lifting the fifth wheel plate when it is lockingly engaged with the container. The fifth wheel plate is attached to the lifting device such that as the container is tilted by the lifting device through the fifth wheel plate, the fifth wheel plate remains lockingly engaged with the container. Preferably, the tilting device includes a vehicle, such as a bulldozer.
