Abstract: A waste handling, intermodal container includes a container body having left and right sides, a rear, a top, an upwardly facing top opening in the top, and a rear opening in the rear; a lid sized to cover said top opening and having a closed and clamped position tightly covering and sealing the top opening and an open position including said lid being vertically positioned along one side of the container body; a lid control and support mechanism connected with the lid and the container to support the lid and to permit the lid to be slid and pivoted between the closed and clamped position and the open position; a rear door hingedly connected along one side of the container to close off the rear opening; and, a retractable hinge assembly operable to retract the door tightly against the rear of the container body to seal the rear opening and to extend the door rearwardly to enable the door to be pivotally opened at the hinge assembly to a position alongside one side of the container body.
