ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A material handling apparatus is described, for example, for delivering bags of garbage to an incinerator. The apparatus includes a plurality of temporary storage compartments, each having a first end at which material can be loaded into the compartment, and a second end from which material can be dis- charged. Each compartment includes a belt conveyor which forms a bottom wall of the compartment and which extends from said first end to said second end of the compartment, said conveyor being operable periodically to move material loaded into the compartment of said first end longitudinally of the compartment in a direction towards said second end for temporary storage. Side walls of the compartment extend upwardly adjacent respec- tive the opposite sides of the conveyor for laterally con- straining material in the compartment. The compartment also includes closure means at said second end of the compartment providing an obstruction to normally prevent discharge of material from said second end of the compartment and allow material fed towards said second end of the compartment by said belt conveyor to be accumulated for temporary storage behind said closure means, said closure means being adapted to be opened at appropriate times to allow stored material to be discharged from said compartment by operating the belt con- veyor. The apparatus also includes a further belt conveyor positioned to recieve material discharged from said compart- ments and operable to deliver said material to a common discharge location.
