Abstract: In a first embodiment, a generally cylindrical trash receptacle includes radially spaced-apart handles and connector members at the upper outer surface of the wall of the receptacle. The trash receptacle may be selectively secured to one or more like trash receptacles to create a stable array of trash receptacles which will not easily be blown over. In a second embodiment, the trash receptacles are square or rectangular in shape and also have handles and connector members secured to the walls thereof.

Abstract: A multipurpose cable handling trailer system for dispensing and retrieving cable from a spool of cable. The system includes a trailer with a lifting assembly for lifting items into and off of the trailer. The system may include a cable guiding mechanism for guiding the cable onto and off of the spool. The system may include a dumpster assembly for permitting hauling of loose material on the trailer. The system may include a level winding assembly for guiding cable winding onto a spool when the spool is mounted on the lifting assembly. The system may include controls with a housing movably mounted on the trailer for permitting movement of the housing between a storage position and an operational position. The trailer may include a deck with a top extending between lateral sides of the trailer.

Abstract: A mobile cable dispensing system for dispensing and retrieving cable from a spool of cable. The mobile cable dispensing system includes a trailer having a top surface, a bottom surface, a front end, a back end a pair of lateral sides. A power supply is securely attached to a top surface of the trailer. An elongate pole is extendable through the spool of cable. Each of a pair of support arms has a first end and a second end. Each of the first ends is rotatably coupled to one of the lateral sides. Each of the second ends comprises a clamp adapted to removably and rotatably couple to the pole. A first actuator comprises an elongate actuator having a first end and a second end. The first actuator is adapted to selectively vary the length between the first and second ends of the first actuator. The first end of the first actuator is pivotally coupled to a first of the lateral sides. The second end of the first actuator is pivotally to a first of the support arms.
