Abstract:
An ash tray having a receptacle having a peripheral wall and a perforated floor. An outwardly oriented radial flange projects from the peripheral wall receptacle at a level even with reliefs formed in the wall for enabling cigarettes to pass through the wall. This arrangement enables a cigarette to be rested on the flange, with the burning end of the cigarette disposed over the receptacle. The ash tray is used at a beach or other sandy environment, and is maneuvered into the sand until the receptacle of the ash tray partially fills with sand. When a smoker is finished smoking, the ash tray is elevated above the supporting sand. Sand and ashes contained within the receptacle escape from the receptacle. Cigarette butts and other large waste particles are retained for subsequent disposal.
