ABSTRACT:
An apparatus manufactured from a single sheet of flexible material. The sheet includes a plurality of peripheral sections, wherein at least one of the sections includes an opening through which remaining sections may be passed to gather and enclose material contained within the sheet. Preferably, the sheet is in the shape of a square, and includes a pair of slits in adjacent corners of the sheet. In use, the instant invention is laid on the ground in an area near the material to be bagged. The individual then places the material onto the sheet until the sheet is full. Once the sheet is full, one of the unslitted corners is pulled across the sheet to the farthest corner having a slit. The unslitted end is then pulled through the slit such that a portion of the unslitted end is exposed on the other side of the sheet. Next, the other unslitted end is pulled across the sheet and through the remaining slit such that a portion of the second unslitted end is exposed on the other side of the sheet. Finally, the first and second unslitted ends are tied together.
