Container captain's caper (4)
I believe the answer is:
skip
I believe this is a triple definition!
'container' is the first definition.
(I have seen 'large container' mean 'skip' so perhaps 'container' could also mean 'skip')
'captain's' is the second definition.
(short for skipper)
'caper' is the third definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for skip that I've seen before include "Miss out; light jump" , "Receptacle for rubbish" , "Rubbish container - miss - jump" , "Gambol" , "Depository for rubbish" .)
