An ash container adapted for relatively easy and substantially dust-free containment of ash from fireplaces and wood-burning stoves. The container includes a receptacle having a bottom wall and a side wall defining a top opening, a removeable cover for closing the open top of the receptacle, and an entrance collar extending outwardly from one side of the side wall intermediate the bottom wall and the top of the receptacle for defining an unencumbered entrance opening to the receptacle. The bottom wall and a lower uninterrupted portion of the side wall define an ash accumulation zone below the entrance opening for containing ash deposited into the receptacle through the entrance opening, and the cover and an upper uninterrupted portion of the side wall define a dust reflection and redirection zone above the entrance opening for confining and redirecting downwardly into the accumulation zone dust from ash deposited into the receptacle through the entrance opening.
