ABSTRACT:
A container for receiving a removable liner sack includes a rectangular bottom wall, four side walls extending generally upward from the edges of the bottom wall and laterally encompassing and defining a space above the bottom wall, each having a side wall upper rim which collectively define an open container top, a side wall extension protruding generally upward beyond the upper rims of two opposing side walls and over which the liner opening is folded, the extension having a top edge and having a gap extending from the top edge generally toward the bottom wall to a point below the side wall upper rim, for inserting an object to engage and lift away the cuff portion for ease in removing and changing the liner sacks. Two opposing side wall extensions are preferably provided. The extensions are each preferably laterally shorter than the widths of the side walls to which they are joined. The liner sack cuff portion preferably abuts these side wall upper rims on either side of each extension, for preventing the cuff portion from extending below the upper rim. A method of removing a liner sack from the container includes the steps of fitting the object through the gap below the cuff portion and engaging the cuff portion with the object, and lifting the object along and out of the gap, thereby lifting the liner sack out of the container.
