Systems and methods for retrieving, transporting and disposing of pet waste

A product for retrieving, transporting and disposing pet waste that may reduce and/or eliminate the use of plastic bags, yet provide storage during transport until the waste may be properly disposed. A retrieval mechanism (e.g. a scoop) may be integrated into a handled cover assembly that may also attach to and/or form a seal with a container. In operation, a user may retrieve excrement with the retrieval mechanism, then position the scoop/lid inside the container, allowing the retrieval mechanism to be inside the container. When so positioned, the waste may drop into the container for storage and transportation. The container may be made of rigid antimicrobial plastic with high lubricity/low frictional characteristics and/or corrosion-resistant materials, and biodegradable bags, a second opening dump door or bag-drop door, and/or a hands-free carrying capabilities also may be provided.
