THE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A hand-operated device for removing tight fitting removable container pail lids having a continuous, skirt-like flange downwardly depending from the annular portion to circumscribe the container pail when in position. The device has a body section of uniform cross-section with a rear handle end, an upper edge, a lower edge, a main fulcrum surface at the front end, and a notch in the upper edge of the body section. A flange-engaging member which is a plate having an aperture within which the main body section is received, is moveably seated in the notch. The plate has a forwardly and upwardly angled lower, flange-engaging lip which in operation engages the flange of the lid and when an upward movement is effected at the handle end, an outward distortion of the flange of the lid is effected thereby permitting the removal of the lid without having to cut its flange.
