ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a multi-purpose cart and grass collector for use with a riding mower or lawn and garden tractor. The multi-purpose cart and grass collector includes two front ends having horizontally aligned apertures therein to provide a two point rigid hitch attachment to the mower or tractor. The cart is supported above the surface of the ground by at least one pivotal wheel and further includes a trailer box which is pivotal about a substantially horizontal axis proximate its back end to facilitate dumping of the trailer box's contents. The multi-purpose cart and grass collector also includes a removable cover assembly having a support framework which rises above the trailer box and which supports a perforated cover. The cover assembly forms an enclosure over the trailer box for receipt of grass clippings. The cover assembly's support framework includes a plurality of pivotal U-shaped rods encased within sleeves in the fabric cover. When the grass clippings are dumped, the pivotal rods and attached cover are pivoted and collapsed into an upright position.
