A hand operated truck (1) comprising a main support element (3) and a platform (8) extending forwardly from the main support element (3). The platform (8) comprises a plurality of platform segments (9) which are pivotally supported on and between a pair of spaced apart scissors mechanisms (7) which extend forwardly from the main support element (3). The main support element (3) is carried on a pair of spaced apart steerable proximal ground engaging wheels (5). A steering handle (51) operably connected to the proximal ground engaging wheels (5) steers the ground engaging wheels (5). A pair of spaced apart distal ground engaging wheels (10) are rotatably mounted on the scissors mechanisms (7) adjacent the distal end thereof. The scissors mechanisms (7) are operable from a first retracted state with the hand operated truck in a stowable state for stowing in a stowing location of a refuse collection vehicle within or beneath the chassis thereof, and a second extended state for transporting wheelie bins from a storage location to the refuse collection vehicle.
