ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A material handling apparatus is described, for example for delivering bags of garbage to an incinerator. The apparatus includes a series of material receiving bins, each of which has an open upper end through which material can be introduced into the bin. Each bin includes a platform forming a bottom wall of the bin and movable between a bottom position when the bin is empty and an upper position for ejecting material from the bin, and means for moving the platform between its said positions. The bins are dis- closed closely adjacent one another in a cascade arrangement in which the bins are of progressively increasing height with increasing distance from a discharge location so that material ejected from an upper bin in said series will tend to pass into an adjacent lower bin. Each said platform has a flat upper surface which slopes towards said discharge location when the platform is in its upper position and forms a closed top on the bin over which material ejected from a higher bin in said series can pass towards said discharge location. The platforms of all of the bins are arranged to co-operate when in their upper positions to form a generally flat inclined surface sloping towards said discharge location.
