A manually operated lifting and securing device for transporting loaded or unloaded wheeled refuse or recycling containers with the use of a common trailer hitch and a motor vehicle. The device utilizes the length of the cart itself as a lever, permitting a fully loaded cart to be lifted and secured with minimal effort. A pivoting, adjustable, removable and specially slotted lift tube allows any size container that incorporates a lift bar to be easily fitted to the device and to trailer hitches of various heights. The device includes a two stage failsafe locking/unlocking mechanism that firmly secures the container and also permits easy release for safe removal. The device can be installed or removed from a trailer hitch quickly, without tools and stored in a compact space.
