A refuse bag opening device has a bag transporting conveyor positioned beneath a closed upper plate conveyor. Sharpened bars extend outwardly from the conveyor. The bars initially puncture a refuse bag from below as the bags are discharged from an infeed chute. Bars are mounted to the upper conveyor. As the lower conveyor moves the stream of bagged refuse below the upper conveyor, the upper conveyor bars move at a speed greater than that of the lower conveyor, andthus puncture and rend the refuse bags from above, ripping the bags open and scattering the refuse contained within out onto the conveyor. To lessen the possibility that a large refuse article will jam the apparatus, the bars are formed of leaf spring material and are deflectable in a cross-machine direction, preferably being stiffened by gussets which extend between the bars and a rigid base in a machinedirection.
