Abstract: A locking device for a dumpster container, wherein the dumpster container is movable between an upright storing position and a tilted dumping position. The locking device includes a main locking device moveable between an engaged position, where the main locking device engages the dumpster container to retain the dumpster container in the upright storing position, and a disengaged position, where the main locking device disengages the dumpster container to permit movement of the dumpster container into the tilted dumping position. The locking device further includes a blocking plate pivotally coupled to the main locking device. The blocking plate is moveable between a blocking position, where the blocking plate prevents the main locking device from moving from the engaged position to the disengaged position, and an unblocking position.
