ABSTRACT:
A bag holder for supporting bags and to aid in filling the bags with debris comprises a base, a standard extending from the base, and a Support attachable to the standard. The base, standard and support may be disassembled into a compact form. The support is removable from the standard and includes a handle by which a user may exert control. A bag is supported by the support via frictional engagement therewith. This configuration protects the mouth of the bag from coarse debris entering therein and from lawn and garden implements used to fill the bag. A portion of the support which contacts the ground is structured aid configured to conform to the surface of the ground when downward pressure is exerted against the support. The support comprises a cylindrical peripheral wall which is expandable and contractible to engage and disengage the inner surface of the mouth of a plastic bag. A flange is integral with the cylindrical wall and includes a rough surface and protrusions or nodules which frictionally engage the mouth of the bag. The support includes a clamp which is coupled to the cylindrical wall by a living hinge. The cylindrical wall and the clamp are structured and configured to engage one another when the clamp is closed to lock the support in place. A pan for use as a lawn and garden tool includes a trough for scooping up debris. The trough has an open end through which debris may be scooped up and a handle opposite the open end. A rake is disposed at the open end of the pan. The rake comprises a series of spaced fingers which are configured to comb through an irregular surface to enhance the ability of the pan to scoop up debris. It is contemplated that the pan would be carried by the bag holder. The bag holder may also include a trough to carry sundry items.
