Abstract: A storage and dispensing cart for receiving, storing, and dispensing charcoal briquettes includes a storage bin member, a storage compartment member and a screening assembly. The screening assembly is disposed within the storage bin member at a lower end to provide a continuous screening of the charcoal dust and small particles, or fines, that are developed when the charcoal briquettes move against each other during filling of the storage bin member or when the briquettes are dispensed. The screening assembly is comprised of a screen mesh that allows the fines and dust to fall to a lower collection chute that gathers and directs the fines and dust into a collection pan that forms a collection repository. The collection pan is removable from the cart so the fines and dusts can be discarded without removing all of the briquettes from the storage bin member.
