Abstract: A rotary device adapted for use with fork-lift trucks, wherein the fork members thereof are mounted to the rotary device and arranged in a normal pick-up position so as to engage a conventional trash container, whereby the container is lifted and rotated about the axis of the device, thereby dumping the trash disposed in the container. The rotary device comprises a rear mounting plate adapted to be secured to the lifting structure of the fork-lift. The plate includes a bearing spindle attached thereto on which a bearing hub is rotatably mounted; and the bearing hub includes a locking drum which is releasably positioned by a locking assembly mounted to one side thereof. Secured to the free end of the bearing hub is a fork-mounting plate whereby the fork members are adapted to be supported thereon, so as to rotate with the bearing hub.
