dumpcart

Where it comes from

From dump + cart.

noun dumpcarts

A cart, often two-wheeled, that can be tilted to empty its contents. When James' Bay mud flats had become too "towny" to be a rubbish heap any more, the little two-wheeled, one-horse dump-carts trundled their loads of garbage to the unmade end of Cook Street and spilled it among the boggy ooze.
Similar: tumbril, tumbrel
