picking up yard debris
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
My tubtrug hasn't made it to the garden yet as there are so many uses for it inside. I'm ordering more of them in each size. Their
flexibility makes it easy to fit them in tight
places.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
These things are the greatest, most useful containers I own. There are thousands of uses for them.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We bought it to use with our leaf mulcher, but it is to flexible, lightweight and easy to use that I find it is a regular tool whenever I'm working in the garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use these for the constant cleanup necessary in a perennial garden- they are attractive on their own and very functional. The only downside is the handles break on occasion. I'm still using the broken ones, however, it is important to use both handles, not just one.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
i received the orange tub just in time for halloween so it will also be used to hand out candy for the trick or treaters
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought the product for yard maintenance and they have worked out great for that. I have used them for carrying items that are hard to handle and it gives you the handles you need.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought one of each size. They are great for collecting things in. Deadheading flowers, picking up debris. Holding plants for transplanting.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have three of this size and one each of the other two sizes. I just ordered one of each size for my daughter. We use them inside to soak stained clothes, wash the children's play shoes, carry tomatoes, apples, etc. inside for canning, carrying things (like canning jars, laundry, toys) from one level to another or from my house to hers...I could go on and on!
Of course, I use mine outside too. The big ones will hold a half sack of mulch which is much easier for me to carry throughout my flower gardens. Because they are so flexible, it is easy to load and unload the mulch, dirt, etc. The grandkids and I also carry gravel, pinecones, sunflower heads, newspapers (for under the mulch), doll babies, toys of all kinds, etc!
The best thing is that when they are empty, we can just stack them inside each other and they take up very little space!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have given these as gifts to my entire family and we are many in number. They are the most useful containers I have found and are very durable and convenient for many home project uses.
Great for everything from toys to knitting to laundry....you name it and it will work.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This flexible and lightweight tub is perfect for carrying my gardening tools and the bountiful harvest I obtain from the local farmer's market.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
What's not to like about the Tubtrug? I use them to give my Bonsai a good soaking; they're deep enough and wide enough to handle my plants comfortably. The choice of colors and the sizes you have to choose from, there's no way you can go wrong.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Use it all the time, wish I had gotten one in every size. No end to the uses.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
If I don't overload it with heavy debris, it is perfect. I love the fact that it bends to pour dirt/potting mix easily. It appears to be very sturdy and I look forward to many years of use.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Use this for EVERYTHING when I am gardening. Always by my side.
I have given MANY of these as gifts for new gardeners, old gardeners, etc...
I use all three sizes. I like the bright colors - especially the new violet!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I don't know how I got along without a Tubtrug. I use it often to mix soil, carry compost, and hold weeds and rocks. Once my chicken coop is up and running, I will use the Tubtrug to haul straw to and from the coop. It makes a load really easy to carry.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought a set in a bright rainbow of colors to use as beverage containers for a garden party. Everyone loved them. I found the best thing about these when I was ready to empty out the melted ice. The tubs were flexible enough to squeeze the handles together for carrying one in each hand and made a nice spout for watering the plants on my deck.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I'm a Horticulturist for an Arboretum and I love your tubtrug. I've always wanted to try them out and so far, they are standing up to mulch, weeds, water, stone, compost and just about anything we throw at them. And, oh yeah, the color makes me smile.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought it as gifts, my parents and in-laws are avid gardeners. The one I bought for myself the kids latched onto to play in and put toys in. I guess I need to buy more.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Now I'm buying trugs for shower gifts!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
A variety of sizes for multiple uses. Easier to carry than buckets which are less flexible. So far have used my set of tubtrugs to carry apples, weeds, green beans, bird food, sand,etc.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use these tubs while weeding in the garden. I have also used them to carry mulch into the tight spaces of my gardens. They are great for keeping all of the gardening tools that I am using. I love the bright colors, they never get misplaced. I haven't found anything wrong with these tubs, other than you want to buy one of every color.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
very cute yet durable.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought this bucket to use as a toy bucket for my new son (born 9-11-09). Even though he isn't yet big enough to use toys, this bucket will be great to bring a selection of toys to different rooms of the house, wherever they are needed on any given day.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
One of the most useful things I've ever bought. LIke a bucket, rubbermaid container, tote, bag and more all in one!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
After the first season or two, the handles broke and the tub cracked in the area of the handles. After that they were only good for lighter jobs or just sitting in one spot. It's not that they weren't useful after the handles broke, but they weren't as sturdy as I would have liked.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
What can I say that probably hasn't been said already? They're fabulous! Sturdy, colorful, easy to handle, versatile.... Our uses: hold the kids' shoes in the mudroom, hold the kids' toys in the playroom, hold all the apples when we went apple picking recently, keep the soccer equipment from rolling around in our rear hatch, use in the garden for weeding, carrying compost and mulch to the beds...
Plus they keep their shape and stand up straight! One of the best purchases from this site ever!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We have used the Tubtrug for a variety of jobs. I collect garden waste as I prune and reshape plants and shrubs. We used them to gather tomatoes and sweet corn and other maturing vegetables. Our yard is almost 3 acres and the Tubtrugs are wonderful for carrying gardening equipment long distances because they're so lightweight. And since they are so lightweight and tough, my 3 year old and 18 month old grandsons can drag them around with birdseed and toys in them. I highly recommend the Tubtrug.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I ordered 10 thinking I'd share a 'couple' of them. My kids and friends have come over and fallen in love with the 'Tubtrug' They are so handy. I just can't say no when they tell me the great ideas they have for using them. I had 3 in the back of my Sienna and they were great for shopping and throwing items in and easy unloading.. They're GONE !... I had 2 on the back porch... GONE ! I will be re-ordering very soon.. and Christmas is coming.. so I'll be ordering extras for then too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:

Bought my tubs to use for storage in my sewing room. I have shelves for my supplies and these are perfect for the oddball things that don't stack neatly on the shelves plus they added a cheerful dash of color to my storage solutions.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Theses are great for carrying any thing from dirt to debris to wet laundry! Especially good for carrying anything up and down stairs and still to be able to see over what you are carrying-like laundry.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We have a farm and a lot of my garden stuff ended up being used by my husband in the horse barn. I have now started to color coordinate my garden equipment so my stuff will stay mine and if it ends up in the barn, I will know how it got there!

Great for toting weeds, compose, veggies, whatever needs to be carried. Wide opening, handles, and light weight make it very easy to use.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought 11&7 gal trugs for something easier to drag around doing weeding and yard chores. Love the colors( sky blue and lavander)even just sitting out empty, but makes me more interested in my chores 'cuz they're...Happy colors :) really great to water with,when handles together forms pouring spout so you can be "more accurate" with your aim, water being at a premium.One problem...strong enough to carry more water weight from rain barrel than I should sooo...note to self; Grab 7 gal. be kind to back!! I use for everything.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this tub as my weed bucket and it is the perfect size. It is nice and wide and holds more than my old bucket so I make less trips to the greens can. Because of its flexible material it is easy to carry - even one handed.
These tubs are great for so many different uses!
Yes, I would recommend - I bought one for my friend!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This is so much better than a bucket - or two! The one I ordered is larger than I was expecting and I love it. I plan to order another, so I have one for rocks and one for weeds, or one for flowers and one for weeds, or whatever I am doing. It also held everything necessary for the dog's bath in the outside shower!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have always used bushel baskets in the past but the splints tend to break and yard material fall through the cracks. The plastic tubs are light weight and wonderful. I have one in each size and they are great for all jobs!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
GREAT FOR WEEDING AND DEADHEADING!
LIGHTWEIGHT AND VERSATILE!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought my first tub two years ago. It was so useful I bought two more, including a smaller one. I use the larger ones for soil, mulch, weeds and even small plants. I load the tubs into my garden cart so I only have to make one trip. I chose bright colors so I could spot them on the lawn.

LOVE IT and plan to order more
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I'm hanycapped and I can not lift over 10 lbs the rest of my life. This allows me to pick up pulled up weeds without hurting me. Thank you so much for this invention. Praise God
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We use it to carry weeds, garden waste, grass, etc. to the compost pile, and to carry compost to the garden. It is also handy carrying harvest (potatoes, onions, et .) to the house. With lighter loads it is useful to be able to bring the two handles together for one hand carrying. The traditional bushel basket is hard to let go of, but this product beats it.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use my tubtrug to carry weeds to the compost pile, then the mulch for the plants, works well for when I divide my plants to hold the plants until I can find a new home for them. I have one in almost every color. I just wished that Gardeners supply carried the larger sized ones as well.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use the Tub Trug for collecting dirty laundry, I use it on my stairs to put things
in it that need to go upstairs.

This is a product that you will reach for constantly. It can be used for so many different tasks that you'll have to purchase more than just one.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Tubs are good for the usual yard chores, but I also use mine for dyeing, and around ceramics studio. They are sturdy enough to stand up full of glaze, and can be picked up, and squeezed into a spout to return the glaze to the narrower storage bucket. Great sizes that make them easy to use. I'm also storing some wedged clay in one.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought myself a tubtrug and liked it so much that I gave one as a hostess gift. The recipient gardens and plans to use it there, but also thought it would be helpful for containing small items she carries in her car.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use one for gardening and two in the house for recycling. They are great and the colors are amazing!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This tub goes with me every time I go out to garden. I mainly use it for carrying garden waste to the compost pile. I have also used it to put large perennials in before I divide them. Love being able to carry the tub when its full with one hand thanks to the handles and the flexability of the tub. Just ordered more in different sizes.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Love them - but I actually cut the side of one with a tree branch.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this tub to lower my hanging baskets in for watering. Watering from the top just drained out the bottom of my coir baskets.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought this trug for my husband for Fathers' Day. He thought I was nuts when it arrived, but wants to know why it took me so long to get him one. He uses it to carry tools around the yard, and then collects weeds in it to the dumpster. He's asked me to get him a couple more. Maybe for his birthday!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I received one of these as a gift-so many uses, weeds, new plant tranportation, watering - I ordered another one and would recommend you get two - endless uses outside in the garden and I'm sure inside as well!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
You will find yourself using the tubtrug for all sorts of things that you didn't expect. We use ours around the garden, but we also use it as a container for kids toys and to carry fish from one pond to another. It is a very versatile product.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Good to use when deadheading, weeding and picking up around the yard. Seems stronger than cheaper models sold else where. Great color choices but I got the dark green to blend in better.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
These containers are great! I use them for everything from gardening to soaking my tired feet. I don't know how I got along without these!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love the brilliant color selection. I bought an 11 gallon lavender one to use for ice and cold drinks at our baby shower/family reunion. Fit in perfectly with the color scheme. Plan to use it again and again.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have a large hill behind our home that I weed and I can grab both handles of my 11 gal. tubtrug with one hand and climb up and down my hill. I'm so glad I got this one!

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love these trugs. They are better than any other product I have used to lug weeds, mulch, everything!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this tub to throw weeds in and trash. I like that it can be used on its side, and is so plyable. Fits easily into each other, so great for storing. The colors are fun!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I now have two tubtrugs. My first one (also Gardeners Supply) is heavier and black but seems more likely to last longer. I loved it but the new colors were hard to resist. Having 2 means fewer trips to dump weeds, deadheaded plants, etc. Some days those things really add up.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I gave the 3 sizes (in pastel colors) as a shower present. More oohs and ahhs than a mixer! I gave one in a more "Masculine" color to my son and he uses it in his shop. I have just ordered a small one for myself to use in the garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have two 3 1/2 gallon and two 7 gallon tubtrugs. I thought it was time to add the big one to my collection. The 11 gal allows me to blend my potting mixes from the smaller 3 1/2 gal size. I love how I can pick up these tubs with one hand or drag it around the garden as I harvest, prune or plant.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love these. They are easier to use than barrels or pails. They are colorful, flexible, easy to carry and to top it all off the colors are gorgeous. Looking at them makes me feel good! Definitely a winning product!

Great for weeding
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love my tubtrug. It's flexible, easy to handle with one hand (both handles at once) or two hands,bends to dump contents. Its light weight means I can tote more weeds each trip. Cost is reasonable and color choice great. Bought one for each of two gardening friends.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The Tubtrug is proving to be an invaluable helper in the garden. It has so many uses and we keep thinking up more.....picking up garden debris, pruning bushes debris, cuttings of flowers, picking vegetables basket, mixing soil for the garden and flowers, carrying water, catching rain water, raking up leaves and carrying them or pouring them into bags, ice bucket for sodas at BBQ, toy bucket for grandkids (you can buy an extra one for that), tossing balls into game for kids, and more. LOVE IT !
Sincerely,
Garden Grandma
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have really used this tub since it arrived. It has been helpful when I'm planting, picking corn and/or other vegetables, taking off trimmings from shrubs and trees. I think I have only scratched the surface on what you can do with it. Love it!!! I plan to buy more in different colors and sizes.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I had my eye on this product for awhile as I am tired of expending energy just hauling heavy carriers. I really like this product however I alwasy thought it was a bit extravagantly priced. I recetnly broke down and ordered one and really liked it alot; the fact that it is rugged but lightweight makes it a pleasure to work with. The next week after I got my first one, I saw them at half the price in [...] for the large, so I got another one. Very pleased with both.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use these tubs for EVERYTHING....every year I find new uses for these tubs from gardening to parties. Great for holding food that needs to be iced. I buy more every season.

I bought a bright red one and can't lose it in the weeds. It takes 15 minutes to fill and that's my day's quota done.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We used our tub to haul loads of gravel. It took a real beating, and didn't show any signs of wear!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We use the trug for almost all landscape maintenance tasks. Weeding, transplanting, anything and everything that needs to be tossed in a container & hauled off.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I had purchased two of these for family members at Christmas. (I filled them with a towel set and some bath gel...they were too cute!) They both raved about how great they were...my aunt uses hers for laundry....and so I had to pick one up for myself. I happened to see these at a local garden center. Not only were there only one or two colors, they were nearly double the price! [...].and I got my Tubtrug in hot pink!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
So useful for so many purposes. Whether I'm throwing weeds into it or carrying plants or mixing small amounts of soil, it is up to the task. And it cleans up so easily. And the colors are fun too!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love this tub! When I weed I can just thow them in the direction of the tub and the top opens so wide I "make the shot" everytime.Much easier then the old bucket.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Though the most common use maybe in the garden, I am using this tub for my indoor use. It is a perfect size for me to pre-soak my cotton items for my tie dieing process.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
For recycling: easy to carry when full, easy to wash up after dumping dirty food containers
For potting: great for mixing soils

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have ordered these before so I knew exactly what I was getting. Others are no substitute. I also use them as gift baskets filled with plants or gardening tools etc.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Tubtrugs are invaluable for our home landscape and flower bed chores, and also in my work as Park Commissioner of a sizeable city park, I consider them essential for certain seasonal maintenance tasks. We have several on hand. A superb invention!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use it to carry supplies
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We have all three sizes and are glad we bought them. They hold their shape, are easy to clean and are very durable. They don't get condensation on them like metal tubs when storing drinks and ice. A really good buy.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Just bought my third (not counting gifts) and I don't know how I got along without these tubtrugs in various sizes. The largest one is the most versatile, great for collecting pulled weeds and pruning trash, mixing amendments into potting soil, transporting mulch and/or compost from one side of the yard to the other (try lugging one of those big bags -- ugh!), collecting waste water when cleaning the fountain, even filling with ice or lining with a trash bag for outdoor parties. They stay bright and flexible even stored in direct sunlight, and are, as promised, virtually indestructible (I lost one to a voracious racoon when I tried using it upside down to hide a bag of worm castings!) My surfer husband even uses one in his trunk to dump sopping wetsuits into for the drive home. Fashion colors are the icing on the cake, just a terrific all-around product.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Love it! I don't know what I did without it!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Very easy to tote along as I move around the yard "deadheading" flowers and pruning roses. Never heavy...always handy. Rinse it out and it's like new again, ready for another use.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The Tubtrug is GREAT !!! I bought this garden basket to make it easier to put clippings into when cleaning up the yard and easier to carry because of the handles and lightweight. Moving soil and mixing soil for plants is also easier. My son also used it to wash vegetables from the garden and soak lettuce in it. When picking fruit and vegetables I can fill it up and handles make it easy to carry. Put soapy water in it to wash patio furniture or even the car or even the family dog. I keep finding more uses for it. Love It !!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This tub is bigger than a 5 gal. bucket and easier to carry. And the color makes me happy.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I am thinking of ordering another of these. It is great. I use it to carry weeds and such when tidying my yard and garden. I also plan to use it for carrying my harvest later in the season. It has also pulled emergency duty as hail protection for my herbs. great product.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use it when weeding my garden. Instead of lugging the large trash can around I just put the weeds into the TubTrug and carry them back to the large can. Much easier.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Already reviewed another size...love these, have two in different sizes. Multiple uses but one thing I love the best...the recycle use of something that is not contributing to the landfills...good product and use of resources.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I ordered my first Tubtrug last year and used it often, however I always seemed to meed another one. So this year I ordered another one for myself and also one for my daughter-in-law and one for my mother. I use it for mixing planting soils, and for gathering leaves and yard trimmings. I find many uses for it. I use it almost daily!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This is the perfect size for moistening soil for container gardening. Also collecting weeds.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We love the trug....adapts to a variety of gardening activities. It easily bends, allowing us to pour mulch or soil.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have used this for lots of different things in the yard, garden...dirt, branches, toys, leaves. I try not to fill it with too much that is heavy. The construction is solid, but I still am careful. I bought the purple, which is a great color and so, I leave it out (strategically placed, of course) as a spot of color in my desert landscape.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought one to use for carrying stuff around my yard and one for my husband to corral things in the back seat of his truck. We were both so impressed, I ordered more. They are great organizational tools and make carting dirt around much more comfortable.

We use our tubtrug for cleaning up after outdoor dinners, weeding, and every other activity. We leave it on the patio and it is really a great catch all. We love it and the colors are so pretty. Makes it easy to clean up.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought the 7 and 11 gallon tub trug and love them both. The 11 gallon size is great for carrying around the yard while I'm deadheading and cleaning out beds. Because of its light weight and the way the handles can be pulled together it's easy to carry with no strain on my back. I've also used it for cookouts; you can ice down a lot of drinks in this size.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
in addition to the above, easy storage. they nest into one another
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I've used other tubs that "looked" like this tub. They soon faded and cracked. This tub lasts.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Totes almost anything--leaves I've raked, weeds I've pulled, plants I'm moving, a bag of soil. Great colors, too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have all three sizes of these tubtrugs and love them !!! I plan on getting more. They are perfect for the chores around the gardening, i.e., weeding, deadheading, sweeping, etc.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love these handy carry alls. I use them to mix and carry soil, gather yard waste, carry small garden tools, and more. They also catch rain water which I use for watering plants. The colors are cheerful. I have now had four of these. The one and only problem I encountered is that one cracked as I was using it in freezing weather.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use my tubtrug to carry mulch. I fill it with weeds. I also use it for carrying things from the house to the motor home. It's totally useful
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this for planting and transplanting plants, catching weeds, and just for transporting a bunch of small objects at once. I want to order the larger size as well!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought three of the largest sizes to use as toy boxes for all the toys I have for my grandchildren. The tubtrugs are soft and lightweight, and I stack them up even with toys in them. The colors are helpful in sorting- cars in one color, dolls in another, etc. The toddlers love to choose which one to bring to the play area. My only wish is that there was an even larger size to curtail all the large outside toys we have.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought my first tub to use under my leaf mulcher - as I'd seen it pictured in your catalog. It fit well - but I soon found other uses for it - so I bought two more. It is a great size for gathering the leaves and debris to mulch, and I like how I can bend it so leaves don't blow out when I empty it. I find it a perfect size for garden clean-up as it is not too heavy or bulky for me to carry. When I have a crowd, I use it in the kitchen to hold fruit and veggie peelings, seeds, etc., to be composted. It is so pretty and easy to clean-up to bring inside!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I cannot believe that I have used cardboard boxes all these years and this tubtrug was available. It makes it easy to put items, even rose branches, into the paper refuse bags needed in my town to be picked up by the garbage company. I can also see where this tub would work in picnic application with alot ice to keep drinks cold.

I use this product to carry mulch, grass clippings trash etc, very usefull abd easy to use. I ordered two years ago and was somewhat disturbed because in one season thee plastic cracked on the sides of two tubs and the handels broke on the large tub.The replacement tubs seem better as no cracking has occurred on the new units ,
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use the tubtrug to collect garden waste, and it is perfect for over-wintering cannas. With so many colors I can put pink ones in a pink container, yellow in yellow, etc. Their light weight is of benefit to me as I am limited in how much I can lift and carry.I garden from a rolling stool and so having a light container makes everything so much easier.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Love it. Very useful with day to day gardening tasks. Very lightweight.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
When my tubtrug is not full of my gardening tools in my trunk, I'm using it for my recycling overflow. It's perfect for both, lightweight and flexible.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
use it for carrying transplants, rocks, tools, anything!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This tub is great for everything. I got the 11 gal size and I use it for weeding, mulching, soil mixing and many other things. It's easy to carry, holds a lot of stuff and is very tough. I plan on ordering the other sizes as well. Very good value!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use it for weeding, carrying soil/compost and debris. I love the colors - easy to see where I left it. I used to use plastic bags...sure beats that!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This is the most versatile product, I pulled it out of the box and ended up using it for my kids toys until the gardening season. Now, I take it everywhere in the yard, place my tools, plants, weeds, discarded plant containers, everything I need in the tub. Bright color makes it easy to spot and clean up from gardening at the end of the day easy.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
These trugs are lightweight and colorful. It will be hard to "lose" these colorful trugs in the garden. Why didn't I get some of these earlier?
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
i use these tubs for everything-weeging,lugging tools from place to place,lugging plants from place to place,cleaning the pond the list goes on and on.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We use these to haul compost from the town pile. It is lightweight and holds a lot of mulch. Storing these is convenient because they sit inside each other for compact storage.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love it. I carry weeds and plants, all kinds of equipment. It's also very sturdy. My kids get a hold of them and carry each other around in them, and the cats. The colors are nice, but I'd love brighter
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have three large ones and a couple of the small ones. I use them for everything from weeding, picking rocks, mixing soil, raking leaves, to storing garden shoes by the door, and cold drinks for a party. I've had them storing crafts to bring into my children's school and sorting toys in the playroom. This summer they will be going to the beach with my family to keep all of the wet sandy towels and toys from destroying my car! I love the colors and design they are fun and oh so USEFUL!!! I will be getting more for myself and as gifts for family and friends. They are a must have for any purpose!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Purchased a black tubtrug from you many years ago and it is still hanging in there. I hope this recent purchase is just as sturdy! I like the colors... good addition to the line.

Great for yard cleanup, leaves,soaking potplants, hauling rocks, trash, iceing drinks, etc.

I have many planting beds and now I can get from one bed to another quickly and easily without spilling the contents. This is definitely something I will give to someone and even to my daughter's bridal shower.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this to collect soiled hay and raisinettes from my rescued rabbits and then transport it to my compost heap. Also use to put raked leaves into the heap.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Puts a smile on your face when you use these festive and brightly colorful containers. Makes garden maintenance a pleasure. Previously used black 7 gal. nursery containers to collect my weeds and prunings -- so boring and with no handles!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The 11 gallon is about the most useful "tool" in the garden. I mix soil in it, weed with it, collect cuttings in it, carried bricks in it and soaked my bare root roses before planting in it. I like that its flexible and, with the bright colors, is pretty hard to lose. Great place to store garden tools at days end. Oh, I was also able to make a good size circle in the ground by tracing around it for a fountain pad.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
It's the perfect tote for all my gardening needs---carries weeds, compost, flowers and veggies! And it's pretty like a purse.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Great for yard clean-up. Beats trying to hold open a plastic bag that's blowing in the breeze. I bought one in each size. Love it!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use these all the time I got 2 last year, liked them so much I bought another 2 this year the colors are great making them very easy to spot in the garden I have used them to transport dirt, rocks,water you name it I put it in them. They stayed out all winter no problem> I have even used them to collect water fron the patio roof to water the garden
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This tubtrug is just the ticket for yardwork! Incredibly sturdy, and just the right size for yard debris, mixing soil, etc. I was helping a friend carry some heavy loads of debris to the curb, and we could manage easily be each taking a handle. I have used the pop-up tip bags in the past, but they don't usually last for more than a season. This is a much better product. I also like that it is flexible, for "pouring", whether it is clippings into a yard bag, or soil into a planting hole. Great colors too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Used mostly indoor to tote laundry & items from room to room
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I like my tubtrug because it is easy to carry, not heavy and it is flexible and the handles are just the right size.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I'm on my second set of these. Left first set out in subzero temps and they cracked. My own fault. Otherwise they are nearly indestructible, and the flexibility is a real plus
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
It's my husband's new purse. I bought him a bright red tubtrug and that thing is never empty. I did not anticipate just how much he would love it. He thought of 50 uses for it the minute he saw it. He's used it in the garden, with our new plantings, but he really wants to use it in his van. I will just have to break down and buy him another one.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Lightweight and easy to use. Great for throwing weeds in to and then emptying when the jobs is done
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use my trugs for everything--hauling weeds, plants, tools, etc. We used the first one so much that I bought two more so that we all have one. I also bought the small one for my granddaughter who loves to help Grandma in the garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I purchased to use this while pulling weeds in my herb garden - I am using it all over our 2 acre property.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Easy to tote around for all your garden chores. From weeding, to picking the fruits of your labor
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Just received my 11 gallon tub and have used it for cleaning out leaves in the landscaping and weeds in the flower gardens. I love the fact that it is very light weight for handling and flexible for getting into tight areas. The "happy" designer colors are delightful. I can see where this tub will be used for many different projects; I will be ordering more tubs in other "happy" colors.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Got in purple and have received many comments from neighbors on my bright container for doing garden work. I am sure in the future I will find many other uses for it other than just gardening.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This is the greatest product since the invention of Velcro! It is extremely versatile as well as very sturdy. I have used them for both indoor and outdoor tasks...
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love the colors offered. They light up the garden like a field of flowers. I use mine everywhere for just about everything I do in the garden: carrying tools, gathering flowers, carrying small bedding plants, transplanting, pulling weeds, mixing soil, spreading fertilizer---you name it, this product does it all. Easy to to clean, lightweight and easy to store. I am going to order a couple more!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The tub is great for weeding the garden instead of hauling around the wheelbarrow. It can be taken inside the fenced in garden so weeds don't have to be thrown to the wheelbarrow. It's easy for collecting trash that's blown into the yard, for carrying veggies into the house. Very easy to wash clean and turn upside down on the wood rack to dry. Like this product very much.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love it for mixing potting soil -- easy to transport and clean up. It's also great for weeding.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Have put this to many uses already and have only had it a few weeks. Easier to use than hauling a wheelbarrow around for small and medium jobs.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I received the small tubtrug for my birthday, and purchased the 11 gallon one for larger projects. It definitly came in handy while doing spring clean up in my yard, as well as carrying it to my dump site. It's a must have for anyone who gardens.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use these tubs for carrying compost, black dirt, etc. I will use when I plant new plants/seedlings. I also use them for holding weeds until I can dump them.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use it in the garden to keep the clippings together and when picking vegetables.
Great to put ice in it and add soft drinks during barbecues.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Got this item to use around the garden for clippings, weeds, etc. Is also great to use under the electric shredder. Colors are fun and cheery. A great item.

I use my tubtrugs for everything from composting to garden produce. They are always in use. They are easy to clean and easy to handle.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Who would have thought Gardner's Supply would have just the right item to hold outdoor theme baby gifts at my daughter-in-law's baby shower? I wrapped up all the items and put them in the 11 gallon bright green Tubtrug with a helium balloon attached. The Tubtrug will be super for toy storage after the baby is born.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I go all over the garden and yard with them when weeding, etc. So easy to tug along I just go dump them and continue on. Fill with potting soil and pot from the tub, easier than working from the bag and spilling or losing soil. Bought one last year (my first). Stayed outdoors all winter (however our climate is usually mild in winter. It survived the flood waters of Hurricane Ike. I ordered three more this year.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
There are too many uses for this product to name! I have several in different sizes.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
great for weeding. It holds a lot and is not too heavy to carry off.
Also a great help for picking up tools and toys in the yard.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love the trugs. I have them in a couple of sizes and the bright colors really light up my garage and garden. I use them for so many things. My only issue is with the handles. Although they are easy to carry, the handles broke off after a couple of years. But although I can't carry them around once the handles break, I find other great uses for them for storage, for parties, etc. and the price is reasonable enough that I don't mind replacing them.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use these for everything from carrying trimmings and cuttings in the spring/summer to the burn pile to loading them up with family clothes or dog items for traveling - they also are great for catching rainwater for use during hot summer months - or anytime.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I am excited about these because I can climb inthe window well and put the leaves and twigs in and safely carry this up the ladder to the burn pile.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use the tubtrugs for weeding, and spring/fall cleanups. Rinse them out and use for drinks at the BBQ! My kids fill them with water and play!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
So many uses and so little time. I am so glad I had these arrive just in time to soak roses overnight. Some roses were almost too big for the tubs. I like the flexibility and the colors are pretty!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
It is an all around wonderful adjunct to any project - easy to "repurpose" at a moment's notice! Cleans up beautifully and always looks brand new!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We used our tubtrug this past weekend to clean up leaves, sticks, and rocks off our lawn. My husband loved it so much, he now wants me to buy one for him so he can use it in the vegetable garden this summer.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this product and the smaller (7 gallon) to hold garden waste while weeding and recyclables--great products and have recommended them to friends.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this as my second "right hand" both inside and outside of the house. Uses are not limited to gardening. They make great laundry baskets, party organizers, and recycle containers.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use my garden trug exclusively for holding and transporting weed waste. I bought my first one about four years ago and find that it is light weight and comfortable to carry. I use a liner of a black trash bag and when it is full, I just tie it up, pull it from the trug and set the bag out for the trash truck. I don't compost weeds. I have the largest size trug, and you'd be surprised how fast a pile of weeds collects. I bought the second trug to mix top soil, composted mulch and composted cow manure in. I plan to put this mixture in handfuls on the low places of my gardens, where the soil has settled over the years. I am using the second trug as a receptacle to replace the function of a wheel barrow, since I am not strong enough to handle a wheel barrow.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I owned 3 of these trugs and when I burned some plant trimmings in my yard I foolishly left my trugs to close to the fire and they melted on one side, because I use them so much I had to buy 3 more.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Tubtrug has been a great product. They are more flexable than a bucket yet holds all kinds of things. Great for mixing soil, soaking bareroot roses etc. And the colors are delightful.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use it daily, carrying scraps to the compost bin, collect weeds while working in flower garden. Carry vegetables to house from garden, Toss it in the trunk when volunteering in gardens around community and if lucky bring back a new plant if not extra materials for the compost.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This item was bought for my sister, Theresa. She is always carrying her vegetables to the house. She is always pulling weeds. She loves gardening and doesn't know how she did without it. She loves the way the handles come together when you are carrying it. Big plus. Unexpected use was by her 1 yr old granddaughter who loved sitting in it, just having fun.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I really love this- I use it to clean out my beds and haul away debris and cuttings from my flower beds. It is very versatile and useful!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
It's still too early in the gardening season for me to have gotten much use out of my trugs. I do use the little one to catch rainwater and snow for some indoor plants. Just love the way I can gather the handles and make a pouring spout out of the trug. I plan on using the big trug for mixing dirt for my "potato bins", if the weather ever warms up. As time goes on I will probably have other uses for the trugs. Love the bright colors. I had previously ordered the two smaller ones, liked them so much I ordered the large one, too!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
These work great for mixing soils and water. Good quality and I bet it could hold ice and beer for several hours. Cheers!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love everything about this tub. I had bought one for a gift for my daughter and had to have one for myself. It isn't even outside garden time here in NY and I've used it several times. It's great to haul items in the back of the car. Right now I'm keeping all my indoor seed starting items in it, it's nice to have everything in one spot. Imagine all the things I can do when I start gardening outdoors!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Appears to be sturdy and useful. Still too early to use it much in the yard.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
So far so good...this has worked great for my "Spring Cleaning" in the gardens! The pretty color also adds to the longing for nice weather!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
So many uses, cant list them all, going to purchase more.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Versatile. When I first saw it, I couldn't think what I actually needed it for but it looked like it might have possibilities. I couldn't have predicted how useful it was. I have one for indoor and another for garden use. I've given several as gifts to grateful gardeners.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Fabulous for so many jobs. I use it to carry compost, haul things, water, etc. It's been one of my favorite additons to my assortment of gardening must have's.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I am going to use it for weeding and carrying gardening supplies.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
My husband's fishing friends love these trugs to catch their flyline as they pull it in. Lots of great uses for the beach and boat since they are waterproof and they don't let the sand escape in the car.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This is my third! Find myself using it all the time in the garden; for weed catching, transporting small plants and gathering the harvest. Also use one in the car, it is great for transporting pot luck casseroles or frozen food in the summer.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I've been trimming roses and pulling weeds, it is perfect! I love it, first time user.

your products are not worth the money...they are WAY over-priced...and cheaply made...I was for the most part, diasappointed, and I won't be ordering again...
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Can't comment on longevity of the product, as they are still very new. But I love the versatility! I have one for laundry, one for recycling and one I plan to use when it warms up enough for gardening. I also love the fun, bright colors.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
DO NOT KNOW HOW I HAVE GONE THIS MANY YEARS WITHOUT THESE TUBS - I HAVE BOUGHT THEM FOR ALL OF MY FAMILY AND WILL BE BUYING MORE - WE ALL KEEP THEM IN OUR CARS FOR ....ANYTHING!! THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL PRODUCT.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I received a tub trug a couple of years ago as a gift and can't imagine not having it. I carry laundry up and down stairs, along with any other items going to a different levels. I used it to carry all of our Christmas decorations up and down stairs also. I've given three away as birthday gifts as well, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the trug to anyone....no negatives.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use my large tub to carry compost from my composter to my garden and I use the smaller one to collect vegetables that I have picked from my garden.

everything from soil to transplant, weeds from prennial garden, toys for the sand box
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Great for gifts, weeding, transfering pond fish, picking up leaves, and MANY other uses!!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I got all three sizes. Love them. They come in handy for so many gardening chores!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have several of these in different sizes and colors and use them for almost any garden task you can think of-- from soaking bare root plants to hauling rocks or carrying flowers/veggies to the kitchen. Stackable and easy to clean, they've also been used as soft drink ice tubs, recycle containers, and laundry baskets. The feature I most appreciate is being able to squish it together so I can easily walk down a narrow garden path-- something other products are just not meant to do. This squishy feature also makes it easier to dump garden debris into our giant yard waste container without spill.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
These tubs were bought to carry recyclabes from home to the recyclers. Love the colors they brighten up the garage. Are so much easier to empty than bags of stuff.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Have only had a few weeks, so don't know how it will hold up. Have used it to haul leaves and debris from flower beds and pool area to wheelbarrow.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The colorful tubs are easy to find in my large yard, where gardening supplies sometimes get "lost"! The various sizes can be used for many tasks - cleanup, harvest, even watering (as mini rain barrel and watering can). Inside, they can be used to transport items from one floor to another and to store children's toys. The handles have a very comfortable grip.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The TubTrugs are very sturdy yet they are lightweight. I use them in the yard and also in the house. Great item to use to transport items in the car, i.e. taking items to the park, to church to set-up for a special event.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have several of these tubs and they are fantastic, I can't imagine living without them in and out of the house.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I have used colorful tubtrugs for many uses both inside and out. They can hold and help organize so many different itmes, clean and dirty! And the colors make them even better.
I am hoping the handles will not crack from extreme weather.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use my tubtrugs for pretty much everything. Sorting laundry, holding toys, toting giant messes from one end of the house to the other, and my toddler and her friends use it to haul each other around. It's very durable, flexible, and versatile. I couldn't be happier with the product.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
It is not weather resistant in cold weather. I made the mmistake of leaving it out one cold night and it had reained prior to a freeze and when the water froze it cracked the trug but you generously replaced it and I am very happy. I have bought several for myself and many for gifts.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought two and they traveled all over my yard with me - clippings and trash, transplanting, hauling, etc. One deteriorated within the first year; the second is in fine condition.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This is the first thing I grab when heading to my gardens. Whether I am weeding or planting, my tubtrugs are put to work daily. Thinking about getting a couple more!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We got these on recommendation of friend to use to work outside and help us begin garden, etc. Very useful.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I ordered 4 of these buckets as Christmas presents for members of the family. My 3 1/2 year old fell in love with them. I then ordered one of each size for her. We use them for everything from toy buckets to hats. They are safe, fun and versatile. We love them.

Gave as gifts to just-starting gardeners - they loved them! So many uses!

The large trug tub is durable and handily holds everything: tools, flowers, transplants, weeding refuse. It's easy to clean--just hose it out and turn upside down to dry.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love having this tub to gather my tomatoes and other vegetables from the garden. It is so handy and easy to clean out too. I just bought it as a gift for a friend. It is good as a wash tub too or a cooler.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
mostly for hauling prunings and debris from the garden. I couldn't live without mine. I gave these (with nitrile gloves) to friends for Christmas.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
we gave this to my mom last year for christmas for her to use in her garden and when we saw it she immediately wanted to use it to carry laundry to the basement! we ended up ordering one ourselves for the same purpose. this year we gave her a smaller size (for her garden...really!) and also gave it to our sister-in-law who loved my mom's so much. the colors are wonderful, plus, you can carry it with one hand! hard to find a more beautiful AND functional item. thank you thank you thank you!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought a trugtub for myself to use for mixing soil for my potted plants. It came in handy for weeding and for harvesting vegetables and herbs from my garden, too. THEN it became a storage place for my garden gloves and pruners during the summer. I gave my daughter one for Christmas, and I'll get another for myself for spring. Great for the beach, for the car, for just about anywhere or anything. And with the lovely, bright colors, you can always find it!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The only con I can find is that my aunt keep trying to take them from me. Sometimes all you need is something like this in the garden or even if you go to the beach. When I take my walks I pick trash on the beach and now I can pick up more if I have too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We bought two Tubtrugs for our new-homeowner-son for Christmas. His dad said, "You probably won't think much of them until you get back into the yard in spring. THEN you'll get it!" We love ours, two black ones. Wish those were still available---
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use the tub when weeding, pruning or cutting flowers, picking up debris, raking leaves. I like the fact that it's flexible so I can bend it to dump the contents into bags or larger pails.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Presently, with New Year's upon us, it makes a neat "ice bucket"! Heavy-duty container relieves anxiety of leakage.
It definitely will be used in the spring---for hauling plants and hand tools.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
The tubtrug has many uses in my garden. I use it to carry around my garden supplies,
tools, seed packs and plants. When weeding, it is lightweight and easy to handle. When hosting a garden party, it also makes a great ice chest for sodas, beer and wine.
I bought two more to give as gifts with matching gloves. I highly recommend them!

I use these for carrying potting soil, mixing soils, yard waste.
My daughters use them for carrying wet and dry laundry up and down narrow apartment stairs.

I use the tubtrug to carry soil and amendments around my garden. Its light weight enables me to fill it and still carry it. Also great for collecting cuttings and dead heads. I love the black one I bought years ago and now have a beautiful purple one to use as well.

My husband and I use the trugs for everything!!
For gardening and garage use. When I can't carry the trug, I slide it. Would never be without. Next year everyone is getting one for a gift.

We use our garden tubtrugs in the daily care of our horses. The tubtrugs are safe enough to use as feed tubs and water buckets They "give" if a horse accidentaly steps on it, and they are so tough even our horses don't seem to be able to destroy them! They serve many uses on our farm. We use them to carry hay, organize grooming supplies, and many more things!

Pefect for storing beach gear. IDEAL for holding wet-suits after surfing. Wet/sandy gear can ride home in it. Fill it with water and rinse everything off. Love it!

I have used Poly/Fabric containers in the past and they wear out eventually. I do not see that happening with these.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I just love these colorful "tubtrugs" - there are so many uses and they are so pretty. I use them to gather leaves, move compost, store extra soil, etc. etc. Also, our basement started leaking this year after a heavy heavy rain and these were great for carrying out the soaked blankets I used to get the water out. They are easy to use, with strong handles, and are very flexible for pouring stuff out or getting stuff in. The price isn't bad [...]they last for years, through heat and cold, rain and sun. Like I said, I just love them, and can always use more.

I bought two - one for myself and one for a friend who loves to garden and work outside.
It is perfect to carry along when trimming bushes, pulling weeds, potting plants, etc. Lightweight but sturdy. I love it.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
tubtrug, I want them in every size!! I use them for gardening, organizing things around the house, keeping my car trunk neat and I even have a large one in my family room with tv blankets.

Got to use with the deluxe mulcher ... so easy to carry. Would like to see one just a little bigger for under the mulcher but otherwise is a great item.

Very flexible and easy to carry.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Just today, separated bulbs for planting , tulips,daffy, crocus etc. then used others to hold weeds and mulch while readying beds for planting: 6 trugs in all. Had another holding forsythia in water waiting to be replanted in new spot. The colors make me smile and are garden deco while in use. Still need yellow one.
Love those trugs.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Had to replace the one I had for years - I just wore it out. Could not garden without it. Use it when weeding, carrying compost/soil when planting, place potting soil in it when potting up plants, transporting plants when divinding, anything imaginable and I use it. Even sweeping up the leaves off my porch and carrying them to the compost pile. Ordered a second one for my son to use in his garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I'm in love! I have 4 of these & I'm thinking of getting more. An excellent, useful product & I love the colors!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
These tubs are fabulous for lugging debris from the garden to the trash, mixing potting soil and transporting mulch etc. The BIG disappointment is that of three tubs that I have had in use for about two years, 5 of the 6 handles are broken. Since the comfortable handles create the ease of handling the tubs, I hope this design flaw can be corrected.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This has been a lifesaver for my back. Being light-weight, I can fill it up with mulch, soil or yard waste and carry it around without any problems. I have two that I use all the time.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Great for weeding, trimmings, leaves and more.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this product to throw weeds and cuttings to take to the burn pile. I use it to scoop out water to clean water troughs for my horses. Works great for use as a manure bucket.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I had bought and used the 11 Gallon Tubrug for years. I needed another - wanted to have two for different areas on our property. The same day my new one was delivered, my husband tells me he ran over my original one with our huge pick-up truck which was loaded at the time with firewood. I immediately went to my original "old friend" to check it over........and it was fine; in perfect condition. You could not even tell anything had touched it. Sturdy construction to be sure!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Great for mixing up dirt and fertilizer, transporting produce from the garden, does not drop dirt all over, great all around garden tote.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I purchased a smaller tub years ago, have given them as gifts as well. They are great for carrying tools and plants when working with annuals, for making manure tea,and convenient when weeding,or deadheading roses. I just love this larger volume. Not too big to carry around.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Bought 2 trugs at first, my daughter thought hers was too pretty to get dirty outdoors so uses it as a clothes hamper. I have bought a third one and just love them, they are so versatile. Think I have used one every time this year that I've worked outside--and that's nearly every day. Love the bright color choices! Plan to buy more as gifts for my sisters.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use my deck to grow vegetables in self watering containers. Sometimes I uses the colorful buckets to collect dead leaves and swept dirt. I also gather the produce in them and collect rain water. They look nice sitting around the planters and they are so light and flexible...just what I needed.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I take this out to the yard every time I go out now because I found that I need it for so many jobs that I was going back into the garage to get it all the time.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I love my tubtrug! There are so many uses and with all the sizes and fun colors I will have to have more.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use these tubs for everything, they're much better than cardboard boxes for transporting things in my car. My mother saw me using them and I had to order some for her.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
So far my daughter loves to put not only toys in it but also her shoes. I plan to use it indoors and outdoors. It's light and flexible just as promised.

I have the tub with me for all gardening needs. I treated myself to the tub when I retired. I just purchased another one as a gift for a friend who will retiring soon. They're wonderful - one of the best purchases I've made.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
GREAT FOR CLIPPINGS.PICKNIC TRASH, ICE, COOLER WITH BEER AND SOFT DRINKS
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Finally something non rigid that's also tough!
I am short and have a back problems and carrying my weeds to the compost pile in a stiff bushel basket was difficult by the time I have my arm stretched out and have to hike it up on my hip I could barely make it to the compost heap. I used it yesterday to dig potatoes and will use it to dig cannas, carry apples (we have a small orchard). I bought several and will also use for hauling laundry (I can even soak my dirty garden clothes in it) and hauling around my granddaughter's toys. Haven't gone through a season yet so gave 4 stars till I test the durability. I usually use several boxes with animal bedding to store my glad corms, dahlias etc but will use these this year.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
This is the perfect size to hold a large trash bag and drag around with me while I'm weeding. It's much easier than just carrying a bag around with me because this keeps the bag open.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Totally useful for gardening from gathering weeds to bringing in the harvest.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Convenient, durable, can always use more
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I use this tub for everything from pulling and dumping weeds to moving a little excess dirt from one place to another. The large size is not too big to handle and makes gardening chores fun because of the bright color!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Great for Inside & Outside! Easy to carry too!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I now own 5 11-gallon Tubtrugs, and it's not uncommon to have all of them in play as I garden, particularly in the spring when I am amending the soil in my garden and pots.
In addition to the "pros" listed above, I especially like that they are flexible without being at all flimsy. Three examples of this: (1) My soil is very rocky and I use these tubs for carrying the rocks I dig up; they stand up to as many rocks as I am able to carry at one time, and their flexibility makes it easy to use good body mechanics as I lift a tub of rocks and to carry it close to my body to avoid back strain; (2) I rarely make a mess any more when dumping things from a tub into my garbage can; I am able to hold both handles of the tub together with one hand, forming a "spout," while I raise the bottom of the tub with the other; (3) Unlike the large "paint buckets" I used previously, these tubs don't get locked together when you stack them.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I agree with all, great for carrying and weeding and storing, but... I own 2 tubtrugs and 3 of the 4 handles have broken on them. I still use them though. I would reccommend with reservations.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I tote this around the garden with me at all times. I'll go out just to look and always end up weeding, deadheading, cleaning up, etc.!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I mostly collect garden waste for compost and collect compost when "harvesting" it. But I've also mixed soil with compost for planting and used it for temporary storage of chopped leaves. I have a smaller one too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
my favorite thing is that with one hand you can pick up a full tub with both handles and keep everything inside. I use one mostly in the vegetable garden and the other I'm trying to keep clean for laundry. I can't think of any reason not to love this tub!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
Great product
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I bought one of these in the spring and I loved it. The size is perfect, its attractive and just perfect for weeding and trimming my garden and hauling away the debris. Unfortunately, my dog chewed both of the handles off of it and rendered it pretty useless. But I ordered another one and now just keep it where he can't get to it.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We use these in a school and they are great for carting all sorts of things!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
I think I have used this product every day so far and I've had them since April. I even use it when it's raining to collect rain water! I love it so much, I not only bought 3 for myself but 2 for my mom as well!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We at the Garden, Love Trug Tubs! Our volunteers and staff use them on a daily basis for all gardening aspects! Beyond gardening the trug tubs are great as drink coolers, laundry hampers, and toy storage. I personally love the easy stacking and pulling appart of the tubs.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 11 Gallon:
We use these for everything-in the garden and inside the house! Love the colors and versatility of uses. Tossing my old 5-gallon paint buckets and getting more of these.

With the 11 gallon size Tubtrug, mixing and carrying soil is a breeze.
