C. Capacity. References to Cart sizes of 35, 64, or 96 gallons are approximate. Acknowledging the different sizes provided by the various Cart manufacturers, the Carts shall be uniform in appearance and must conform to the following ranges in size: • 30 to 40 gallons, • 60 to 70 gallons, and • 90 to 101 gallons. D. Cart Handles. The Cart handles and handle mounts may be an integrally molded part of the Cart body or molded as part of the lid. The Cart handles will provide comfortable gripping area for pulling or pushing the Cart or lifting the lid. Pinch points are unacceptable. E. Cart Lid. Each Container shall be provided with a lid that continuously overlaps and comes in contact with the Container body or otherwise causes an interface with the Container body that simultaneously: • Prevents the intrusion of rainwater, rodents, birds, and flies; • Prevents the emission of odors; • Enables the free and complete flow of material from the Container during the dump cycle without interference with the material already deposited in the truck body or the truck body itself and its lifting mechanism; • Permits users of the Container to conveniently and easily open and shut the lid throughout the serviceable life of the Container; • The lid handle shall be an integrally molded part of the lid; • The lid (and body) must be of such design and weight that would prevent an empty Container from tilting backward when flipping the lid open, and, • The lid shall be hinged to the Cart body in such a manner so as to enable the lid to be fully opened, free of tension, to a position whereby it may rest against the backside of the Container body.
