A waste container for the disposition of waste concrete comprising a bottom floor section having a major dimension extending longitudinally of the container, front and rear lateral dimensions which are substantially less than the major longitudinal dimension, and a forward end closed by a forward transverse wall section. Opposed side walls extend longitudinally of the container and upwardly from the bottom floor section to define with the bottom floor section a receptacle for waste concrete. The side walls are flared from the front to the back of the container to provide a back opening which has a lateral dimension greater than the lateral dimension of the forward transverse wall section. The side walls are sufficiently flexible to permit relative displacement between a first lateral dimension corresponding to the configuration of the side walls when they are not stressed and a second lateral dimension which is less than the first lateral dimension. A reconfiguration system is connected to at least one of the side walls and effective to compress the lateral dimension of the side walls relative to one another from a first somewhat greater lateral dimension to the second reduced lateral dimension when a plastic mass, such as unset concrete or the like, is added to the container.

[What is claimed:] [1.](a) a longitudinally-extending bottom floor section having a major dimension extending longitudinally of said container having front and rear lateral dimensions which are substantially less than said major longitudinal dimension;(b) a forward transverse wall section at the forward end of said container, opposed side walls extending longitudinally of said container and extending upwardly from said bottom floor section to define with said bottom floor section a receptacle for waste concrete, said longitudinal side walls being flared from the front to the back of said container to provide an opening at the back of said container which has a lateral dimension greater than the lateral dimension of said forward transverse wall section;(c) said side walls being sufficiently flexible to permit relative displacement there between a first lateral dimension and a second lateral dimension which is less than said first lateral dimension; and(d) a reconfiguration system connected to at least one of said side walls and effective to compress the lateral dimension of said side walls from said first lateral dimension to said second reduced lateral dimension when a plastic mass is added to said container.
