ABSTRACT:
As a part of the combination there is provided a trash container of the type which can be picked up and dumped by inverting it by the lift usually found on the front or rear end of a trash collection vehicle. However, because the invention contemplates compaction of the trash in the container before its contents are dumped into the vehicle, the container has flared end walls, such as to permit the compacted contents to fall freely from the container upon its inversion by the vehicle lift. To accomplish the desired in-container compaction, a vertical hydraulically driven ram is mounted in such a way that the container may be placed below it when the ram platen is raised to its first and upper position. Support means are provided for the underside of the container and for its flared end walls when the container is disposed directly below the ram platen, such support means being engaged with upwardly extending means to hold the ram in position above the container for reciprocal movement vertically from its first and upper position above the container, to a second position inside the container and approaching the bottom wall of the container.
