The invention is a universal dumpster adapted for use with both conventional front loading and conventional roll-off refuse collection trucks. A universal dumpster according to this invention includes a floor, a pair of side walls, and a pair of end walls. The floor, side walls and end walls together define an interior compartment for collecting and containing solid waste. A sleeve is fixed to each side wall to engage the pickup arm of a conventional front loading refuse collection vehicle. At least one of the end walls of the dumpster includes at least one door which is movable between a first fully closed position and a second fully opened position which exposes an opening through the end wall for depositing solid waste into the dumpster and discharging the solid waste from the dumpster. When the door of the end wall is in the fully opened position, a discharge chute is formed f6r guiding the solid waste out of the interior compartment of the dumpster. Because the dumpster is capable of being emptied through at least one of the end walls, the dumpster may be emptied by either a conventional front loading refuse collection truck or a conventional roll-off collection truck.
