The rear side of the adaptor box (i.e. the tailgate) includes a door means for providing access to the interior chamber. The door is swing mounted on hinges to the exterior surface of the adaptor box and has an opening passing through it that is designed to allow a leaf blower system to be attached to the adaptor box so that lawn refuse can easily be loaded into the adaptor box when desired. A removable opening cover, capable of being mounted to the door, is provided for covering the opening when it is not needed. The open top of the adaptor box is defined by the top edges of the side walls. A grate is used to cover the top opening to the adaptor box. Additionally, on the upper sides of the adaptor box, extending form the front to the back of the box, a side door is located. This door is in addition to the door located on the back or tailgate of the box of the present invention. These doors provide both curb and street side access to the interior of the box for snow removal or other waste hauling activity.
