ABSTRACT:
A refuse container (2) is disclosed comprising a base receptacle (4) and a lid (6). A pair of support plates (16) are spaced apart and connected to the rearward sidewall (9) of the base (4) and a pivot pin (28) is located at a distal end of each support plate (16) and extends normally therefrom. Each pivot pin (28) comprises a smaller diameter shank portion (30) and a larger diameter end cap (32). The lid is configured to have a pair of spaced apart arms (42,44) projecting from a rearward side, each arm having a peanut-shaped aperture (48) through an inward facing sidewall (56) thereof. The aperture (48) receives an associated pivot pin (28) through a larger aperture portion (50) thereof, and the lid is pushed forward to position by force fit the shank portion (30) in a smaller aperture portion (52). A pivoting connection is thereby established between the lid and the base, and the lid is free to pivot from a location on top of the base to a position adjacent a rearward sidewall (9) of the base.
