The refuse collection system comprises also a vehicle (18) that is provided with lifting gear (20) for lifting said container (14) out of the chamber (1) respectively lowering the container (14) into the chamber (1). Said container (14) and lifting gear (20) are provided with coupling means (17,23) for coupling the lifting gear (20) to the container (14). A ground placement location (44) is provided for placing the vehicle (18) next to a vehicle placement side (45) of the chamber (1) which faces the ground placement location (44) with the aim of lifting respectively lowering the container (14) with respect to the chamber (1). The supports (36) are located at opposite sides of the chamber (1) in such a way that the container (14) is pivotable with respect to the chamber (1) according to a pivot axis (43) defined by said supports (36).
