A container assembly designed for the collection, temporary storage and transport of refuse, waste material or other objects including a housing having a hollow interior in which the refuse is collected and stored and further including a supplementary support structure movably mounted on the housing and selectively positionable between an operative position and a stored position. The supplementary support structure is at least partially defined by a support platform which, when in the operative position, extends outwardly from a sidewall or other exterior surface portion of the housing and is structured to support and have mounted thereon one or more objects or containers of additional refuse material, etc. such that diverse objects or materials may be stored and transported both interiorly of the housing and exteriorly thereof, thereby increasing the capacity of the materials or objects stored on and transported by the container assembly while maintaining the objects or materials in a segregated relation to one another. The supplementary support structure, in certain embodiments of the present invention, may be disposed in a retracted orientation to define the stored position when the storage or transport of objects or materials on the exterior of the housing is not intended or required.
