A dumpster lid stop bracket to limit travel of a lid pivotably mounted to a dumpster body by a hinge pin is provided. The stop bracket includes an elongated bar having a first straight section, a bent section continuously connected to the first straight section, and a second straight section continuously connected to the bent section, a spring clip slidably mounted to the elongated bar and having a pair of openings to receive the first and second straight sections of the elongated bar. Space within the spring clip and first and second straight sections permit the dumpster's hinge pin to extend therethrough. Pivotal movement of the lid to an open position permits the elongated bar's bent section to contact a side wall of the dumpster body and both the first and second straight sections to contact the lid, thereby enabling the stop bracket to limit travel of the lid.
