Abstract: A lightweight compartmentalized collector dolly which readily stores newspapers, glass and metal materials for recycling is disclosed. The newspapers can be neatly stacked and bundled within a dedicated compartment. The collector dolly has a handle and wheels to enable even a child to maneuver the dolly and to collect recyclable materials and sort them during collection. Another container for storing glass materials hangs from a handle support bar and is supported by a half-cup at the bottom. Since the doubled cylindrical compartments have liners and both compartments and liners have draining capabilities at their bottoms, the storing regions in this dolly can be readily cleaned.
