ABSTRACT Apparatus and method for dispensing non-round, flexible, elastic, flanged containers from a nested stack of such containers are disclosed. The sidewalls of the bottommost container are compressed, preferably at the corners, causing the remainder of the stack of containers to move vertically upward, and a separator is inserted into the gap created between the flange of the bottommost container and the flange of the penulti- mate container. The bottommost container is then dispensed from the remaining containers. In the preferred embodiment, a rotor assembly is used. It comprises a separator blade, a wiper blade, and a top support disc, which are concentrically, fixedly mounted on the shaft of the assembly. The assembly further comprises a squeezer wheel, which provides the required tray compression and is rotatably and eccentrically mounted with respect to the rest of the assembly.
