Dumpster
A dumpster is a movable waste container designed to be brought and taken away by a special collection vehicle, or to a bin that a specially designed garbage truck lifts, empties into its hopper, and lowers, on the spot. The word is a generic trademark of ''Dumpster'', an American brand name for a specific design. Generic usage of '' skip'' or ''skip bin'' is common in the UK, Australia and Ireland, as Dumpster is neither an established nor well-known brand in those countries. History The word "dumpster", first used commercially in 1936, came from the Dempster-Dumpster system of mechanically loading the contents of standardized containers onto garbage trucks, which was patented by Dempster Brothers in 1935. The containers were called ''Dumpsters'', a blending of the company's name with the word ''dump''. The Dempster Dumpmaster, which became the first successful front-loading garbage truck that used this system, popularized the word. The word ''dumpster'' has had at least th ...
