ABSTRACT:
A portable lawn bag includes a bag and a pair of stakes. The bag is preferably rectangular in shape with an opening substantially perpendicular to the ground. Two holes are formed at a first end to receive a first stake. Two holes are formed at a second end to receive a second stake. Each stake includes a handle portion disposed at a first end, an upstanding pin, and an offset portion which is disposed at substantially the second end. During set-up, the bag is laid with either the top or bottom on the ground. The second end of each stake is inserted through a bottom hole at each end of the bag. The stakes are forced into the ground with a combination of hand pressure applied to the handle and foot pressure applied to the offset portions until the offset portions clamp the bag against the ground. A top hole at each end is placed over the upstanding pin of each stake. The upstanding pin holds the bag open such that lawn debris may be raked therein. After the bag is filled, it may be transported by grasping the top and bottom handles together and then dragging or carrying thereof.
