A garbage receptacle assembly includes a garbage can has a lid is hingedly disposed on the garbage can for opening and closing the garbage can. A pair of rear wheels is each of the rear wheels is rotatably integrated into the garbage can and a wheel lock is movably integrated into the garbage can for selectively inhibiting each of the rear wheels from rotating. A rear handle is coupled to and angles upwardly from the garbage can and the rear handle has an adjustable length. A front handle is coupled to the garbage can for gripping. A roller is pivotally coupled to the garbage can for steering the garbage can along the support surface.

A container, such as a roll-out cart, includes a body portion and a lid. The body portion includes an outer wall extending upward from a base wall to a mouth of the body portion. The lid is secured to the body portion and pivotable between a closed position over the mouth and an open position. The lid includes an upper lid portion and a lower lid portion. The upper lid portion extends downward to an outer lip. The lower lid portion extends downward to an inner lip. The inner lip is inward of the outer wall of the body portion when the lid is in the closed position. The outer lip is outward of the outer wall of the body when the lid is in the closed position.

A collector of yard waste is an apparatus that is used to collect items and debris from a yard. The apparatus includes a receptacle, a shovel lip, a first wheel, a second wheel, and a guide rope. The receptacle is a container in which the user can store trash, debris, and other such waste for subsequent disposal, and is further utilized as a structural mechanism for arranging the other components. The shovel lip provides a way for the user to drag the present invention into a pile of foliage or trash and provides a simple mechanism for adding items to the receptacle. The first wheel and the second wheel are arranged on a shared axis to provide a mechanism for moving the present invention from place to place. The guide rope extends from the collector to allow a user to pull the present invention along during use.

A shank proof container made of a flexible industrial plastic sheet sheet. The industrial plastic sheet sheet may be cut to form shapes that are welded by RF welding or other forming means to create a closed container having a bottom, side wall and an open top. The RF welding creates welded multi-layer seams that support the bottom spaced from the open top.
