ABSTRACT:
A scoop for ashes and debris includes a receptacle, open at one end and having a generally flat bottom wall. A door is attached by hinge to the top of the opening in the receptacle to move between a closed position, where the door covers the opening, and an open position, where the door is swung upwardly and away from the opening. A spring located exteriorly of the receptacle biases the door normally to the open position. An elongate pull rod is attached at one end to the underside of the door to extend through the receptacle and through a rear wall thereof. The portion of the pull rod extending through the rear wall is formed into a grasping element for grasping by hand to enable pulling the rod rearwardly to thus pull the door to the closed position. A handle extends from near the opening in the receptacle upwardly, rearwardly, and then downwardly to a point on the rear wall below the grasping element.
