Abstract: A reconfigurable waste collector (100) that includes a waste receiver (105) extending between fill (110) and receiver edges (115, 120, 125). Two fill panels (130, 140) extend between two of the receiver edges (115, 125) to respective fill panel closure edges (135, 145), and between fill and backstop edges (150, 155, 160, 165). A backstop (170) extends from another receiver edge (120) and between the respective backstop edges (155, 165) of the fill panels (130,140) and to a backstop closure edge (175). At least one closure panel (180) hingedly extends from at least one of the closure edges (135, 145, 175) between a closure fill edge (185) and a sealing edge (190), to be closable about the waste collector (100) during and/or after filling with waste, and to define an interior waste collection volume (200) and a fill opening (205). The waste collector (100) can be uprighted for continued filling.
