Abstract
The invention is directed to a trash receptacle which includes engaging members that communicate with a satellite vehicle to compact trash. Such trash receptacle comprises a rigid outer housing having four main panels (front panel, a back panel, a first side panel and a second side panel). The front panel includes passageways. The four panels form a basin. Positioned on the back panel via a hinge is a pivoting top door that attaches through a lock assembly. The pivoting top door further includes access doors. A compaction ram, having ram connectors that exit the various passageways of the front panel, is positioned between the first and second side panels. The compaction ram includes one or more track guides capable of resting within tracks located on the first side panel and second side panel of the rigid housing. Such compaction ram may include a plurality of triangular beams having sharp edges.
