WASTE-CONTAINER CONJOINING ASSEMBLY

Abstract

A waste-container conjoining assembly for facilitating moving two waste containers together includes a base. A pair of slots is positioned on a surface of the base. An edge of the base protrudes downward to define a plate. A latch is coupled to an end of the plate. The latch has an upward curvature and fasteners to the handle of a waste container. A fitting has a top with a hidden surface. The top has a pair of slots being similar to the pair of slots of the base. A back edge of the top protrudes downward to define an extension. The hidden surface of the fitting is positioned upon the surface of the base. A pair of screws and a pair of nuts secures the fitting to the base by being inserted into the pair of slots of the fitting and the base.
