A washout container to which are mounted inclined ramps that allow a
transit mixer, concrete pumping truck or other concrete handling vehicle
to drive up over a portion of the container for dumping excess concrete
and washing out waste concrete. The container cross-section may be
rectangular to semi-circular, and is preferably fabricated with a steel
structure. A watertight latching door assembly is coupled to the
container to prevent leakage of collected liquid concrete waste material
while allowing solidified concrete materials to be unloaded at a disposal
site. The interior of the container is preferably lined with a material
to which concrete will not adhere. The liner may be applied as a coating
to the interior of the container or as a solid material retained within
the container. In this way, solidified waste concrete can be easily
removed from the container at the disposal site and preferably crushed
for recycling.
