Abstract
A portable light-weight utility stand is described which is very useful for supporting a trash bag in an upright manner with its top open to receive the deposit of material therein. The utility stand comprises: (a) a frame member including a bag attachment section and four leg members, (b) a platform attached to and supported by the legs below the bag attachment section, (c) a chute member pivotably attached to the frame and pivotable between first and second positions, and (d) a lid carried by the chute member and being pivotable between open and closed positions. The chute is adapted to secure the top of the open trash bag to the bag attachment section. The platform supports the bottom of the trash bag. The lid is adapted to cover the open top of the trash bag, if desired, until such time as the bag is filled, after which the filled bag may be removed from the utility stand and replaced with a fresh bag. The portable stand is easily assembled and is very sturdy.
