A bracket with a clamping handle (16) is provided for use with coolers without strap slots. The accessory has a trash holding bag (7) which is removably attached to the bracket by a draw cord (8) sewn around a top opening and which can be tightened or loosened through a cord lock (9).

The invention relates to a device for collecting and containing dirt or fluid. An apparatus comprising: hollow chamber (1); first actuator with scooping mechanism (5) which when retracted is proximate to the rim edge (4), and which when extended is proximate to the centre of the chamber opening; second actuator comprising holding or attachment member (7), which is moveable back and forth (on tracks 8) between distal and proximal ends; store of disposable containment tube material, held by the holding member. Methods of controlling a cleaning device, which allow for use of the device, using the containment tube for multiple actions, and disposing of the containment tube. A first embodiment (FIGS. 1, 6 & 7) has a double scoop mechanism (5) which is connected to the rim (4) by resilient (bridging members 6), with a disposable containment tube (10) drawn over the opening (FIG. 3). A second embodiment (FIGS. 2, 6 & 7) has triple arcuate scoop members (5) that are connected to rim (4). A further embodiment (FIGS. 4, 6 & 7) has first triple arcuate scoop members (11) and second triple arcuate scoop members (12).

An instrument is described for collecting domestic organic waste comprising: an external container forming a cavity with an inner surface, a lid for hermetically closing the cavity of the container, a device for decreasing the pressure inside the container by extracting air from the cavity, an inner bag located inside the cavity to contain organic waste, a protruding element comprising a portion which is spaced and cantilevered from the inner surface and configured to support the bag inside the container suspending it inside the cavity in order to avoid pressure difference between inside and outside of the bag.

An apparatus includes a flexible sheet of material having a perimeter edge and a central opening forming a discharge chute, and first and second clips coupled to the flexible sheet for securing an open end of a bag around an outer circumferential surface of the discharge chute, wherein the first and second clips are spaced apart about the outer circumferential surface of the discharge chute. With the discharge chut inserted into the bag and the bag secured to the clips, the flexible sheet is laid on the group and debris or other solid materials may be raked, shoveled, or otherwise placed on the flexible sheet. Raising the flexible sheet, such as by lifting with handles around a perimeter edge, causes the debris to pass through the discharge chute and into the bag. The size of the apparatus may be adapted for the application, such as leaf collection or sandbag preparation.

A lawn refuse bag insert includes a rear wall disposed at a rear end of the lawn refuse bag insert; a first side wall hingedly coupled to the rear wall at a first side of the lawn refuse bag insert; and a second side wall hingedly coupled to the rear wall at a second side of the lawn refuse bag insert opposite the first side; wherein the lawn refuse bag insert further defines a front end opposite the rear end, and wherein the lawn refuse bag insert is unobstructed at the front end from a top end of the lawn refuse bag insert to a bottom end of the lawn refuse bag insert.

An apparatus for supporting a bag, particularly a heavy-duty bag, in an open-position on a support-surface. The apparatus includes a support-frame, a frame-backing, at least one fastener, and in some embodiments, at least one clip. The apparatus may be mounted to any support-surface. The apparatus is particularly useful for supporting a heavy-duty bag on any surface in a warehouse.

Example aspects of a lawn refuse bag insert, a lawn refuse disposal assembly, and method for using a lawn refuse disposal assembly are disclosed. The lawn refuse bag insert can comprise a bag stand defining a top stand end and a bottom stand end and comprising an end wall and a first side wall, the first side wall hingedly coupled to the end wall; and a first rake detachably coupled to the bag stand, wherein the lawn refuse bag insert is formed as a blank.

A product bag suspension assembly includes a rod having a first end, a second end, and a body extending between the first end and the second end. A platform is operatively coupled to the second end of the rod and defines an aperture arrangement configured to receive a mounting device of a product bag. The rod is configured to suspend the product bag in an upright position when the product bag is coupled to the platform.

A yard waste collection assembly includes a tarp that is positionable on a horizontal support surface such that debris cam be positioned on the tarp. The tarp is foldable onto itself to enclose the debris positioned on the tarp. A plurality of adhesive strips is each coupled to the tarp and each of the adhesive strips adheres to a respective one of the adhesive strips when the tarp is folded. In this way the adhesive strips can retain the debris in the tarp thereby facilitating the tarp to transport the debris for disposal. A plurality of stakes is provided and each of the stakes is extendable through a respective one of the stake holes and engage the horizontal support surface to inhibit the tarp from moving on the horizontal support surface.

The present disclosure relates to a trash bag retaining apparatus and system that secures a trash bag inside a trash receptacle and enables a sliding motion for subsequent removal of the secured trash bag. In particular, the apparatus includes a proximal end insertable into a support arm of a trash receptacle. The distal end includes a slide stop in addition to an abutment face that abuts the support arm upon insertion of the proximal end into the support arm. The abutment face is sized and shaped to match a size and shape of the support arm. Further, the distal end also includes one or more surfaces defining an inlet, positioned between the slide stop and the abutment face, where the trash bag retaining apparatus can secure a portion of the trash bag to the support arm.
