An apparatus for separately storing compostable material in a kitchen waste receptacle has a holder panel with an adjustable releasable attachment for suspending the apparatus in the waste receptacle and a cradle panel connected to the holder panel with a hinge, the cradle panel movable between a first position coplanar with the holder panel and a second position non-coplanar with the holder panel. The cradle panel includes a lock for releasably engaging the holder panel to maintain the cradle panel in the first position. A bag retainer seated in an aperture holds a compost bag, and the bag retainer positions the opening of the compost bag such that the opening is occluded when the cradle panel is in the first position, and the opening is clear when the cradle panel is in the second position.

An easily attachable/detachable bag for use in conjunction with household vacuuming. The bag features a pouch that opens when the user applies pressure or squeezes opposite ends, and seals shut once the user releases the pressure or squeezing. The bag is easily attached/detached to device such as a vacuum by use of a hook-and-loop fastener.

A collecting tool (1) includes a frame body (11) that is disposed so as to surround an opening end portion of a bag (100) storing waste (D1) inside, and on which a folded portion (100a) of the opening end portion of the bag (100) is hooked in a state where the opening end portion of the bag (100) is folded back outward, three wires (13), a clip (12) that is provided at one end portion of each of the three wires (13) in a longitudinal direction and clamps the frame body (11) and the opening end portion of the bag (100) together in a state where the folded portion (100a) of the bag (100) is hooked on the frame body (11), and a fixing portion (14) that supports the other end portions of each of the three wires (13) together and is fixed to a construction material.

A portable bag hanging apparatus may easily and securely attach to a wider variety of objects and enables more diverse use cases. The bag hanging apparatus includes a catch end and attachment end connected by first and second connectors made of soft, crushable, and collapsible material. The connectors may be secured between two objects with an interference fit while the catch end provides additional retention. Alternatively, the connectors may be wedged between two objects with something less than an interference fit, relying instead on the catch end to secure it in place. All exposed portions of the portable bag hanging apparatus are composed of soft material that is quiet when it comes into contact with other objects. In addition, the portable bag hanging apparatus is small, foldable, and virtually indestructible such that it may be easily stored and transported without risk of damaging it during travel.

A selectively removable receptacle with securing elements for engaging a container is provided. The selectively removable receptacle may be configured as a bag for use in various containers, such as, but not limited to, trash and/or recycling containers. The receptacle or bag may include one or more securing elements, such as adhesives, that secure the bag to the inside of the container while concealing the presence of the bag when viewing the container from the outside. The adhesive elements prevent the bag from falling or sliding down into the container either by gravity or when items are placed inside the bag that is positioned inside the container.

A leash-mountable clip assembly comprises a clip rotatably connected to a disk via a swivel member. The clip assembly is configured to be adhered to a leash at the disk, such that the clip rotates relative to the leash. The clip assembly is configured to hold waste bags. A system for assembling the leash-mountable clip assembly comprises a base and a flare tool having an eyelet flare tip. The flare tool defines a tool opening for receiving a portion of the clip during use. A method of assembly involves positioning components on the base and using the flare tool to create the rotatable connection between the disk and the clip.
