A device for manipulating a tarpaulin across a top aperture of a container, the tarpaulin defining a tarpaulin first end section and a substantially opposed tarpaulin second end section, the container defining a bottom wall and a peripheral wall extending substantially upwardly from the bottom wall, the peripheral wall delimiting the top aperture substantially opposed to the bottom wall, the container defining substantially opposed container first and second ends, the tarpaulin first end section being secured to the container substantially adjacent to the container first end. The device includes: at least two arms defining respective substantially opposed arm bottom and top sections, the arm bottom sections being each pivotally coupled to the container through a respective pivot, the pivots being provided at substantially spaced apart locations along the container between the container first and second ends substantially adjacent to the bottom wall, each of the arms being pivotable about the respective pivot between respective arm first and second positions, the arm top section of each of the arms being closer to the container first end in the arm first positions than in the arm second positions; at least two tarpaulin mounting elements each extending from a respective one of the arms substantially adjacent the arm top sections for securing the tarpaulin thereto; at least two biasing element each operatively coupled to a respective one of the arms for biasing independently from each other each of the arms toward the arm first positions; and an actuator for selectively moving the arms between the arm first and second positions.
