We think Tubtrugs are one of the most useful gardening tools ever, so we could hardly wait to try out this new size. These flexible, lightweight polyethylene tubs are washable, bendable, crushable and nearly indestructible. This mid-size, 7-gallon Tubtrug is perfect for picking apples, collecting weeds in the garden and holding groceries in the back of the car. With several Tubtrugs already hard at work at home and in the garden, we keep finding uses for a few more!

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I love this tub! I'm giving one to my sister and mom for their birthdays filled with garden supplies. Our local landscape store has something similar but they don't stand up to the quality of this one!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I finally have something that I can use to collect debris, move dirt, hold supplies,or whatever I need it for!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This Tubtrug is so handy to use! I really like the flexibility and versatility of it! It helps me with my gardening and weeding.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I was given my first tub as a gift and now own three. I use them all constantly. I purchased this one as a gift for a gardening friend.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have found this size tub trug to be very helpful in the garden. I have a herniated disc. So it is difficult for me to lift heavy bags of soil or mulch. So I dump a portion into the tub trug, add any necessary additives, and I pour it into the planters. It has saved my back.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Wow love my new tubs. They are just what I needed for gardening. I just grab a tub and have been harvesting my asparagus so far. I soon will be picking lettuce and will use these also. It will be perfect for harvesting all my vegetables this summer. Have a big garden so will use them alot. They are lightweight so I can just grab a handle and move easy.It is wide at the top so can just throw in and not miss, so much better than plastic bags like I used to!Love them and so glad I bought two.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Use them to pull weeds. Use them to spread fertilizer. Use them to carry pot soil around to the area that I want to put the pot in. Have even used them to mix liquid fertilizer in. They're perfect.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
One of my most frequently used tools. Wide range of tasks can be accomplished.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These are wonderful. I bought three. One 7 gallon and two 3 gallon. They are so easy to use and carry around, flexible, light weight and yet hold their shape. I don't know how they do it but like I said they are amazing. I use one to haul my hand tools around in and the larger one to put all my trimmings for the compost etc. I can easily carry more than one at a time even when they are full. This saves me many trips around the yard. I am excited to use them when the time comes to harvest crops. I know it will save me endless trips back and forth from the garden because I will be able to carry several at a time. I love them and enjoy the bright happy colors. It makes gardening and yard work a lot more fun.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I absolutely loved my trugs (I had 4) until one by one, the handles broke. They lasted about 2 years each. What they really need is something like a pot-lifter to go around them to relieve the stress on the handles. I lift heavy loads; maybe users who only use them for weeds won't have this problem.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I now have both sizes. These buckets are really well constructed and versatile. I've used them for weeding, mulching, harvesting and even to haul around some landscaping rocks. Easy to hose out and they fold in half for compact storage.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Great product, even my kids love to use them!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have these in several sizes and all are useful. I take one when I'm weeding in the front which makes transfer to the back compost easy. I use them instead of buckets for water and wet soil. When my husband first saw how many I ordered (5 in 3 sizes), he asked why I needed them. Now he's stolen two to take to the boat! All around great product.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I love it-wish I had bought one sooner! I had my eye on these but resisted because I'm cheap & my white 5-gallon pails had worked fine for years. [...] MUCH handier to use then my old pails! Wider opening, flexible so you can pull handles together & carry in one hand, cheery & colorful, durable.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The bucket is sturdy and lightweight, but wish it had been described as too big for basket, to order next size down.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use these to aid family members in sorting laundry. The 7 gal is the perfect size for a load of clothes, separated by color.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Great little bin for putting all that random yard debris headed for the trash: leaves, pruned branches, garbage, etc. A lot easier to use than a garbage can or wheelbarrow. Also convenient for holding soil to pot or repot plants.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This is a multi-use, handy dandy rock carrier,dirt carrier, great for transplants, balances well. i love all the sizes. i use them for weeding, potting,carrying transplants. The handles are great for my arthritic thumb and carpel tunnel problems. they stack together and store beautifully. The bright colors make them easy to find when I am cleaning up.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Since this product is weather proof, we leave it right out in the garden tucked back amoung the plants. That way, when we stroll through and can't resist pulling a weed or two, the tub is right there ready for duty. We have used it to hold soil as we repot plants and it washes up and dries easily. We carry it with us when we prune and dead-head plants. It is light weight and makes this task easy. When we ordereed, we really had no idea how big a 7 gallon tub would be since we didn't have much to reference it to, but it turned out to be a good size, not too big to be bulky and not too small to be un-useful.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This bucket has held weeds, sticks, rocks, plants, pottery shards, water, worms (I have 3 boys), tools, and occasionally, the neighbor's puppy. I love it and wish I had 2 or 3 more!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These tubs are so handy for numerous gardening jobs. I really like the size and bright colors I use one for gathering my garden vegtables. I also like how light weight they are.

Colorful, lightweight and practical. Multipurpose.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I love my Tubtrugs. So did the person who stole my first two trugs from my yards so I had to replace them. I immediately missed not having access because I use them all the time.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I've used to transport food, plants, trash; used as a cooler; and left it out in the yard to collect weeds, etc. most of the summer, and it did fine. I have 4 now!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I love the lime green color.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use the smallest size to keep a set of gloves and hand tools on my porch. It's just the right size for pulling a few weeds from a small front yard garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use these for carrying mulch, leaves, weeds, and tools around the yard. You can fit a lot in and the flexible handles are easy to grip and carry. I love these and have several in different sizes!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Just recently prchased the tubtrug so haven't used it very much - so far it is wonderful for transporting plants, fertilizer, garden tools. Can't speak to durability and weather resistance just yet. So far I love it!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The 7 gallon trug is the perfect size for weeding, and moving and mixing smaller amounts of soil and compost. The bright color makes it easy to spot in the garden if you're moving about.
My husband is always taking it - I need to get him his own trug.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I used it to make my own germinating mix when I ran out of my purchased product. It is lightweight, easy to handle, doesn't leak, holds a lot, and is pretty! Great product!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use these for literally everything! Weeding, hauling leaves to the compost, hauling compost to the garden beds, harvesting veggies, etc. I even have filled it with water and used it inside to force forsythia branches to bloom. It's the ultimate tub, no cracking or breaking if it gets dropped or set down on pointy stones, and you can even carry it with one hand since its so bendable that the handles meet in the middle. I will never buy a different tub or basket for the garden!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
so many uses from yard cleanup,mixing soil,to carying anything
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Seems indestructible and useful for so many things! Weeding container, carrying garden implements, carrying plants when transplanting, mixing soils with amendments, pouring compost tea around specific plants etc. I have several in different sizes and they are all in use constantly.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I don't know how I have been a gardener for 55 years without these! I was browsing on this website one day and thought they were pretty and bought them for no other reason. Since they have arrived I use them for carrying soil, picking up debris, grandchildren's toys, too many other ways to write. I will give these as gifts to all my friends.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use it for recycling, weeding, potting, soil mixing,and carrying small garden tools. Have given as gifts to family and friends

A great product useful for gathering up yard waste or carrying various items. Plus, it's colorful!

I use it to mix garden soil, compost and fertilizer for containers and raised beds.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Has many many uses.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Great as a laundry basket and as a tote for the car. Useful when planting smaller pots and containers. Also great for weeding and carrying hand tools around.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have purchased 3 of these and absolutely love them. Use them when weeding, cleaning pond, mixing planting soil etc. This fall one handle broke off and then the entire tub broke into pieces. Today the handle came off another one. I do not leave them in the weather. Got a cheaper one this summer and will see how it holds up. really do use them , just wish they lasted longer for the price.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
carried plant dirt to repot plants one day and harvested oranges the next!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I've used the tubtrug for collecting yard clippings and carrying them to the compost pile, moving dirt to fill up planters (awesome because the flexible tubtrug makes it really easy to pour the dirt), and for corralling trowels, string, fertilizer, and seed packets as I clean up from my work in the garden. I am so glad that I bought this product!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use these indoors and out. The colors are great. I've used these for laundry, mixing potting soil,and keeping winter things together in the car.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I ordered these in 2 different sizes and love them both for different reasons. Very practical, so much prettier than a bucket. I also use one to catch my cold shower water until it heats, and it's easy to carry out to the yard.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use it in all aspects of gardening from hauling compost to carrying produce.
The only problem is the handles which have broken after a couple of years use. They are so necessary to my gardening that I just ordered replacements.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Can't carry 2 buckets at once because you need to carry one with both hands but it works well especially in carrying and pouring water.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have used these for carrying potting materials, soaking water parched plants and holding pool toys. They are also great for harvesting the garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These tub trugs are the single most helpful tool I use in gardening. Weeding, carrying tools & seeds, transplanting - all are made easier with these great tubs. I own more than one - can't have too many of them - and the colors are fun, too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I make my own salsa and it was perfect to put my ingredients in and mix the salsa. I love them and use them for more than the garden. They work great for feeding our goats and hauling water. Fantastic product !
Garden fresh salsa!

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Throw my gloves, clippers and pruners in the tub-trug along with my bottled water and head to the garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
My parents are Avid Gardeners and they needed something for this spring. I saw this and immediately bought it for Christmas!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Have found so many uses for these! They are handy in the garden for carrying stuff - compost, mulch, plants, tools, veggies. We use them for camping with our horses as well, they make carrying water to our horses so easy, the colors prevent them from getting mixed up with other campers' stuff. Always take one along on these trips for our make-shift shower in the horsetrailer.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
You can use it to hold the fish while cleaning the pond, mixing dirt for potting plants, or carrying tools or toys...can't be beat
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I purchased the tubtrug as a christmas gift for my brother-in-law who is an avid gardner and his daughter and granddaughters saw it and asked if they could have it. I should have bought one for everyone!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Great tubs for storing boots in winter by the back door, carrying recycling to the bin, and lightweight enough to carry around the garden while pulling weeds and dead plants to take to the compost. Bought one for me and one for a gift.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use Tubtrugs almost daily during the gardening season to move soil, add mulch to flower beds, help with Koi pond maintainance, mix special soil mixes, move compost to garden and flower beds, and collect yard waste (weeds, fallen branches, etc.).
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Love these....Got one for my garden...several more for my brother- in- law (gardener) and niece and nephew (2-year-old gardeners in training).
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
perfect. enough said.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
We have been using the large tubtrugs for a couple of years to carry garden waste to the compost pile and finished compost to the garden. Red means "don't compost", green "compost this", and yellow "caution". This summer we will add medium trugs in blue and purple for carrying soil and sand. They're easy to spot in the garden so I don't misplace them; they're light, easy to carry, and seem really strong. My only problem is that they stick inside each other when they're stacked so I can't just grab one off the pile with one hand.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use my tubtrug every time I work in my yard and garden! It's flexible, tough AND comes in many great colors! I gave several of these as gifts to my gardening friends.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have other containers that I've used for gardening projects, but this is my new favorite! It's lightweight, so it's easy to move around while I'm weeding. It fits in my garden cart for hauling dirt, compost, or whatever. I can foresee many other uses for it also. I like it so much, I've bought one each for two of my friends for Christmas.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use my tubtrug for any time I must carry anything anywhere. Stays out all winter and still performs. Have given it as a gift and received rave reviews! Love it!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
gift. garden, carrying produce.dirt,compost - you name it most likly can be held or transported.thr item was requested as a gift.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use this product as a clean up tool and to mix dirts and fertilizers. It also carries my gardening equipment.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These are great for the garden. I have used them for a number of years now. The only draw back is that if you leave them in the sun all the time the handles will break. We have also used them for cold drinks.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
We have two sizes of these tubs and will use both of them a lot. We will use them for lawn maintenance and also trimming our roses and other flowers.
There is nothing that we don't like!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Good gift
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
A great size for gift-giving. Great gift when paired with the nitrile gloves also.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
It is not at all awkward as a regular pail. Love the handles and it stores so much better than a pail.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Perfect size for my weeding, but should work wonderful for carry in all those vegetables.
Make a colorful addition to my gardening supplies.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These are great for just about anything--from toting sand, soil, rocks, and pavers to soaking my feet at the end of a long day. I've used them as a watering can for plants beyond the reach of the hose and have carried in a tomato harvest in them. I have given these as gifts and they get used for everything. My mom even uses one to carry her wet laundry out to the line. They do not hurt your hands even when they're carrying a lot of weight. I will never go back to conventional buckets/watering cans/baskets again.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I forever lose things in my garden, so I bought a yellow tubtrug and it stands out from great distances. I even carry my gardening tools in it for the same reason. I even bought one for a friend for Christmas.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Great for picking citrus from the trees.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I just got my first ones so I don't know how long they last or stand up to hard use and climate change, but so far I have loved having them and found all sorts of uses for them!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought one for my sister and one for myself. Then I bought a bunch more for myself in all the sizes. At the moment, I have one with craft stuff, one with stuff to take to the basement, one with cleaning supplies, one with things to take to my parents' house, and two with Christmas presents in them. The open construction means that things are a little more likely to fall out if you don't grab both handles, but it also means that it's easy to toss things in and to find the things that have fallen to the bottom
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I am very pleased with my Tubtrugs. And I know that the one I will give as a holiday gift will be very well received. My friend is also a gardener and she will love it for carrying things around in the yard.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Tubtrugs are immensely versatile, as well as pretty. I use them when weeding, collecting fallen twigs in the yard, playing yard games, carrying tools around the yard, carrying plants for transplant, and so much more!! You won't regret buying one....or twelve!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought these for my son and daughter-in-law, who were here for Thanksgiving. The tubs are very sturdy - my 2-1/2 year old grandson had so much fun getting in one of them and putting the other one over his head. They held up great.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This bucket just makes me happy. It is pretty (purple) and it is real easy to clean and it holds alot of garden debrise while I'm working. I like that it is so lightweight (as opposed to a regular bucket) and it is flexible so it's very easy to dump. I will buy a few more in different sizes as I can think of many other uses for this bucket besides gardening.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I ordered the product for two gardeners that I know and they were both extremely pleased with the tub and couldn't wait to use it. They loved the colors and the fact that they were polyetheyne and easy to use. I was very pleased with the fact that even though they weren't made in the U.S.A., at least they were made in Spain and not in China or Vietnam or Pakistan.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
A easy to carry, useful helper in the garden. I chose the yellow because I have a lot of yellow and green in my yard and I can leave it waiting for my next time to work and it blends in. I carry my tools and have plenty of room to pick up debris as I work around the yard. Very helpful.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I think the color of the tubs are not only pretty, but you can pick it out easily when you're trying to begin a project. I give them out as gifts and pick the appropriate color for that person. They all have told me they use them all the time!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Loved mine so much, I bought one for my uncle!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Want one in every size and color! So many uses, home, garden, shed, car, truck. Keep by your side when weeding in the garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Love these for harvesting, weeding, soil mixing, and finally when not in use they are great rain catchers.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use them for everything!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I fill with wrapped gifts and give for christmas
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
We use them for everything! It's a bucket when we wash anything, including the dog and cat. I use them in the luggage area in my car to keep my groceries from rolling around. We sort things into them when cleaning. They go to the beach with us. I use them in my garden for everything. It's a laundry basket! I served ice and soda cans in them at a party! We find more uses everyday!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This is simply a great size tubtrug for home and garden. I use mine for organizing and carrying unwieldy art and craft supplies. I've also given this as a gift to a friend, and she loves it.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have the larger size as well as a laundry basket. Much easier to carry than some that are sold just for laundry baskets. It is just the right size for clippings (any larger would be too heavy).
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I am using the three I just purchased as containers for grandsons' toys, my dog's toys and for small gardening tools used most frequently. I am going to order some additional ones to use in other ways. Love these. Colors are fun, also. Children like them because they toss in their toys and carry them from one area to another easily.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I LOVE the tubtrugs and have three of them. I use them for yard clippings, hauling gardening supplies, etc. I don't know what I did without them, they are great!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These tubtrugs are a terrific investment. They can be used for hauling dirt, moving plants, mixing soil, organizing your shed and tools.
They are indestructable...I have had one for many years and it will not crack or break. I have back problems and they are light weight too. Just purchased 6 for Christmas gifts and another for my use.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have two large Tubsrugs and two small ones. They are ideal for collecting weeds and sticks and for deadheading. They are lightweight and easy to carry. I have four large flower gardens, so I place them at each garden and fill each as I go along. I have a central burning pile space that I use to dump all the debris, so cleanup is very easy and weed seeds are destroyed. I place them at each garden. They are bright enough so I don't lose them. I left one out all winter last year, and the weather didn't affect its sturdiness. A great product.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Perfect for picking veggies from the garden.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I've always pulled weeds and dropped them on the ground to be picked up later - no more, with my handy Tubtrug. I love it, and it saves me time and effort as it goes everywhere with me when I'm working outside.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Collect produce from my garden, use when weeding flower beds,It is easy to carry
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I ordered two sizes, and my husband questioned why I ordered them when the order arrived. It wasn't more than two days later when I see him out in the garden putting tomatoes in one and beans in the other. I guess they met with his approval too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Lugging both garden produce and weeds is a absolute breeze with these. I have several and at least one of each size. I plan to purchase every color just for the fun of it!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
use these in and around the house for everything
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
After I had this for a week I bought one as a birthday gift for a gardener friend. I use it for garden waste as I weed and trim...it is much lighter and easier to carry than the buckets I was using. And it works well as a watering can when larger amounts of water is needed. I use two sizes when putting in new plants. the small one I use for water to soak the roots prior to planting then use it to water after planting. The larger size I use for the dirt I remove when digging the hole. I can then mix that with compost right in the tub.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
i've been using my tubtrug all over the garden. I use it for carting my fresh picked veggies to the house, as a garbage pail when I'm pulling weeds and I even use it to haul around my hand tools.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Ever Garden needs them all size's
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
great product and pretty too! won't have to worry about my boyfriend using my purple tubtrug!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I love my Tubtrugs!They're great for weeding,mixing potting soil & carrying compost.Great product!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I purchased the mid size and it is perfect to carry around my garden for deadheading, cleaning flower beds, and whatever else I need it for. Since I have arthritis in my fingers the easy grip handles and lightweight construction make it comfortable to handle. The only difficult part was deciding which color I wanted.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
My friend has a tub trug and has set a goal of filling it 3 times a day with weeds. That inspired me.
I have had my tub trug for a week and have used it to bring weeds to my compost bin, to transport water to newly planted shrubs, and to move compost mulch to garden beds.
I love it and enjoy the colors!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Great house gift
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought these tubs at a garden center about 5 years ago. Unfortunately I left them out during the winter months and eventually the handles fell off and the tubs cracked. So I would recommend that they be stored inside during winter. Otherwise they are the best I have ever used for weeding, carrying soil and general clean-up.I was very glad to find them on G.S. They are worth paying shipping :)
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I've been using a bucket and wheelbarrow to collect garden debris. I read reviews and was so happy to receive one in each size for my birthday. They're just the greatest garden product ever - I love them! They're totally practical, WELL-MADE and best of all: MADE IN SPAIN .. that's when I knew they were a great quality product. SO GLAD I FOUND THEM.. THEY'RE AWESOME!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
easy to use. bright colors are pleasing to the eye.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have used to transport vegetables back to the house, carry weeds to the recycle area, carry stones to the placement location, as a basin for soap and water to wash the patios...and the colors are gorgeous!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use this Tubtrug to carry items where I need them and also to collect weeds. I plan to buy more!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought the 7 and 3.5 gallon tubtrugs with the intention of using them to sort compostables as I gardened; one for weeds and one for benign plant matter. I love them for this use but have found them perfect for ice buckets at patio gatherings, bringing in groceries from big box stores, and gathering hand tools, rags and other various things that have been left out around the garden. A great, multi-use item for a great price!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use the 7 gal tubtrug when I am deadheading blooms and pruning plants--It's just the right size. The only drawback is that the handles are a bit skimpy. I always have my garden gloves on when I am carrying, and it's almost a tight fit. The handles could be a bit thicker too. Otherwise, I just love my tubtrugs!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have three tubtrugs and have moved rocks with them, collected produce, cleaned up weeds and used for storage I can't wait to get a couble more!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The best all around bucket I've found. Works for holding tools, gathering weeds, final produce. I'll be ordering more in various sizes.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I absolutely love this tubtrug, in fact, I am going to buy a smaller one to cart around my tools. I use my large one when I am deadheading or weeding, and it is great for picking vegetables in the garden, too. It is lightweight, easy to clean and bccause it is flexible, you can easily grasp the handles to carry your load around the yard. Just an all round good product!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use this for weeding primarily and for picking up twigs, branches etc. I love the color and it is very lightweight and easy to carry.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
versatile! wonderful!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I find these to be very versatile. I use them in the garden to carry tools and harvested vegetables. I use them indoors for recycling paper and for carrying laundry. They are comfortable to carry, and the flexible shape makes it easy to carry different shaped materials. Because they are stackable, they can be stored efficiently when not in use.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I got the 7 gallon Tubtrug. It's first assignment was to carry bricks from my neighbors yard to mine. I filled it as full as I could - making two trips. I was exhausted - it went unscathed. So far I've use it for carrying garden tools and gathering weeds. I imagine it will be perfect for harvesting my produce when it's ready. I got one for my neighbor who first used it for her hand-washables and now uses it for her weeding. I got one for my boyfriend who used it for cleaning out gutters - and was thrilled that it was lightweight and easy to maneuver. We love our Tubtrugs! :)

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I started with one of each size. I thought of so many uses, I kept ordering more. I may be up to 10, not including the ones I've bought for friends and family. The large and medium sizes are perfect for yard cleanup and because they're so flexible, it's easy to "pour" the contents into a big paper yard-waste recycle sack - no more collapsing paper sacks! The small is great for watering plants. A medium green one holds a fountain and three water plants. My niece uses one for her baby's toys, that is when the baby isn't sitting in it and being pulled around the floor, squealing with delight. Who needs expensive toy cars when a tub trug will do? They hold ice and cold drinks, groceries in the back of the car, kayak gear, recycling, and cat toys. I don't know how I got along without them!

This is a wonderful item to have while working in the garden for multiple uses. When you're done gardening, rinse it out, fill it with ice and stash some drinks inside it for your party! Very lightweight and it's bendable.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
It is so lightweight that it doesn't add extra weight and bulk to what I already have to carry. It is just the right size to mix up a batch of soil for bedding plants, or a small amount of mulch without taking a whole cart full.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I just use these things for everything. I always have them in my car as I have numerous gardening jobs around town and can always find a use for them.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These are awesome. Only cons are price, and tendency to slosh more than expected when filled with water
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I've been using a big utility bucket and while it's been OK, these tubtrugs are much easier to handle. The metal handle on the bucket was constantly in the way when trying to dump contents into a bag. The handles on the tubtrug are included in the rim and are never a hindrance. Also, since the tubtrug is flexible, it's easier to direct the contents into a bag thus avoiding spills. So far, I've used these only for weeding and carrying plants and tools, but I know they will be useful in other ways the longer I have them.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have owned one of these tubs for over 5 years. I couldn't do without it. Strong and light weight. Good for carrying trash or liquids.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought two 7-gallon tubs at first. I use one to carry my tools around w/me, the other for carrying compost, potting mix, etc. Love them so much I'm buying one for my mother and another one for me. The fact that they come in fun colors is a bonus. I might even buy one for my sister for her knitting. These are an excellent product!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The large tubtrugs I use for carrying around laundry, emptying the dryer and organizing folded garments, towels etc. The medium size I use in the garden to hold soil and mulch as I move from plant to plant. Under filling the tubtrug allows me to carry it in one hand. I carry one in each hand and load a few needed hand tools into them too then move around the perimeter of the house, amending the soil. It's so much easier than pushing a wheelbarrow or dragging large bags of soil. I love the cheerful colors, especially the yellow and lavender. I also leave one large trug in a handy outdoor location where I can collect garden trimmings for composting later. Caution: if you place like sized tubtrugs inside each other they might get stuck together, at least when new.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
All of the above that are checked are reasons to buy this product.

I bought the mid-size ones and will get a larger one too! Great gift!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
In the garden, the tubtrug can be used to transfer composting material to amend garden, aid in carrying heavy objects, and to gather clippings, debris, and weeds. Colorful, attractive, sturdy, and cleans up is a snap with a hose. Great addition for schlepping stuff to the beach or to keep drinks cold.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use it to carry things all over, but also to put pulled weeds in so they don't fall back to the ground. My granddaughters use one to carry their pool toys around.

I used mine to gather all my hummingbird feeders to be cleaned and refilled.Love the flexibility of the tub.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Love the trugs. I use to use a bucket until it got a crack in it and I needed something else. I've seen the trugs in the catalogs before and have always wanted to get one. I couldn't decide what size, so I bought the 7 gallon & the 3 l/2 gallon, and I'm glad I did. I just love them. Tote everything from plants to potting soil, to leaves, grass clippings, and stones. They have become a gardening essential. I use them whenever I'm in the garden, and I am glad that I got the 2 different sizes. I love that their flexible so you can pull the handles together and carry with one hand. Very versatile, and pretty too! I plan on buying a couple more!!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
We have used this med sized carryall for everything, tools to get our deer fence up, gardening tools to lay out ans amend the new beds and we look forward to warmer weather when we can use it to carry vegetables and flowers from garden to table and farmer's market. We like it so much we intend to order several more.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use this product when weeding my extensive flowerbeds. I can carry it with me to hold all the unwanted weeds I pull and it's never too heavy.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
It is a great catch-all. I can see so many uses for this tub. I love it!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These Tubtrugs have been great for hauling weeds (Yuck!) and debris, but I look forward to using them when I harvest my bounty!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I keep my garden tools in the colorful tub to tote them around as I work in the garden. It is also a good container for weeding.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This product is a perfect solution for weeding. I keep it nearby and discard the weeds in the Tub. It sure beats the small bucket I used to use, or the large plastic sheet. It holds many of the "unwanteds" and is easily transported to the garden waste barrel. The Tub stays where you put it, too. The color--I selected the bright green--makes me smile!
A garden lover with too little time
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Besides the ordinary and multitudinous gardening uses, I use Tubtrugs for soaking raw hides, and for the different stages in brain tanning buckskin. Also good for outdoor parties - icing the drinks. I have purchased numerous Tubtrugs for my friends.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
After a year when mulching the yard the handles broke off. The mulch just was not that heavy either. I was very disappointed.

This is one of the best things ever in the garden. Not too heavy when full. Good for hauling lots of stuff, storing stuff, temporary home for transplants.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have been using ths a lot in the past couple of weeks. Perfect size and when loaded up with weeds (blah) easy to dump into the larger green bin.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I ordered this to replace a crumbling bushel basket I had been using for garden cleanup. From day one, I have been using it not only in the garden but to carry all kinds of things. I'm going to get another one and also some in different sizes.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This item is very handy when weeding. It's also good for collecting old flower heads or any type of cleanup in the garden. I love the flexibility and the fact that it's light weight and colorful for a touch of whimsey. It's also easy to clean.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I purchased this item to store my 5 year old's bath toys! I can load it up with wet toys straight from the tub and empty out the drained water the next morning. I love the fact that these are kid-proof, soft and flexible, brightly colored & fun for holding kid's nicknacks. Tubtrugs are easy to clean and practical for so many household storage uses. I plan on purchasing additional tubtrugs for toy storage, as well as for my gardening needs in spring, summer, and fall. I love the cheerful colors. Thank you for a great multipurpose practical product!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I used the tub for just about every gardening job that I did - BUT - over time the bottom deteriorated and eventually the entire bottom cracked and fell apart. I was very disappointed.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
This size tub is ideal for gathering cut flowers in the back yard and bringing them to the house without smashing them. And when not filled with flowers, it can be filled with ice and drinks and set out on the patio. Great colors, can be mixed and matched.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
love the garden tubs, use them for everything, leaves, dirt moving plants around . I have given them to friends & family, great for party ice tubs too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I own several of these in different colors; and I must say are worth every penny! I use them all season long for every gardening chore you can think of. After hauling compost just a quick squirt of the hose makes them ready for picking apples or bringing in heavy loads of squash from the garden. They are great for gathering toys and games for a picnic or the beach too. I also like to fill them with produce for the farmer's market, as they are rugged yet make a colorful, eyecatching display.
The best part is that during the rest of the year I use them inside for clothes baskets, hauling water to my humidifiers and storing bags of potting soil for repotting house plants and having seed starter easily available in the basement during mid-winter. I am a very frugal person and can tell you that you will get your money's worth out of them. I have had some of mine for 3 years now and they show no signs of wear at all!

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Well, I'm afraid I've found ANOTHER use for my tubtrugs, lord knows I use them for so many things in spring,summer and fall but I found a new use this winter. They are great to catch water dripping down the inside of our window from the thaw from our 40"" of snow. I tack up plastic and funnel it into the tub. Thank goodness I have several!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Great for dragging through the flowerbed/garden when I'm weeding. When it's full, I carry it to the trashcan or compost pile.

I Love my lavendar Tubrug. The 7 gallon size is perfect for when I deadhead my potted flowers. My next purchase will be a larger one for harvesting my vegetable garden this year.

This size is ideal for transporting "things" in the car trunk. Originally I thought to use it to mix soil for container gardening, but, have used it in numerous tasks. The flexibility makes for easy carrying and the color selection is delicious.

I will use it to collect vegetables and weeds.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I got ONE Tubtrug, but I need three. One for upstairs stuff going down, one for downstairs stuff going up, another for the front yard and one for the back. Being able to hold both handles in one hand while holding on to the stair rail is an added plus. I gave several of these away for Christmas and everyone loves them.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The first one I purchased was immediately appropriated for my daughter's toys so I had to buy a second one! Will use mine for preparing planting mixes, harvesting produce, and probably lots of other yard and garden uses.

You can carry plants, water or trimmings easily, or clean it out and chill beverages in it.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I took this to my community garden space all summer both from carrying in gardening tools to carrying out my vegetables! I use it to gather kindling in the woods, carry in fire logs, hold dirt while re-potting plants and plants while re-locating them. I carry around gardening tools. I've even used it to ice drinks for a party! Flexible, sturdy, nice color and dependable.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I gave my mom a couple of these tubs as Christmas gifts. As an avid gardener with advanced arthritis, she's looking forward to using these for spring gardening. I can see my dad using these also for larger jobs around the yard.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The bright colors coordinate with the horse farm. These make a great catch-all for the items to be carried each trip from house to barn: laundry, supplies, the mail, gloves, etc. It doesn't crack like a laundry basket and it a more useful shape than a bucket. It is attractive enough to use for recycling at parties.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Get several of these, in a variety of sizes. They do LOTS of work! Wonderfully flexible and lightweight, you can carry them anywhere and then lug anything in them -- soil, rocks, lawn clippings, water...you get the picture. Easy to clean. Hook over your fencepost to keep handy. And fun colors keep them visible for those of us who forget where we left something when we get immersed in our work. You cannot go wrong with this product. After you're done working, rinse, fill with ice and beverages and relax!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:

great for gathering vegies from the garden or fill it with ice and drinks for an outdoor picnic
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
When I first bought the larger Tubtrug, purchased it not realizing just how much I would use it. Very convenient and Light weight, so you can carry it all around the yard while pruning or weeding. Nice too that when you transfer the weeds etc. to another bag or container, the trug is flexible, so you don't end up dumping half of it outside the bag.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I sent a set as gifts to my daughter and daughter-in-law. They both live in multi-stories houses and use them to tote items from floor to floor.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I ordered a small Tubtrug to check quality. I re-ordered another one of a different size and color for myself, as well as two sizes in two shades of green as a gift for one daughter and two sizes in two shades of purple for my other daughter.
I was very impressed with the quality and flexability. I'll probably order more next spring.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought two of these as gifts for gardeners. They were very well received. I like the bright colors and versatility of the Trugs. They could be used for many things besides gardening.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:

I love my tubtrug so much I gave some as Christmas gifts to friends who garden. I use mine for weeding, transplanting plants, lugging compost, etc.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Can no longer carry the bigger, heavier trugs around so I like this smaller version. Plus they are so pretty to look at and pretty to have in the garage!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
keep the groceries from rolling around in the trunk
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use these when weeding - easy to toss weeds into, then easy to carry to the compost pile. I leave them out in the yard between uses so that they collect rain water; then if you grasp the two handles together they form a handy spout to poor the rainwater. Also I use them when collecting spent flower stalks: I cut off the stalks and place them upside down in the trugs to dry. When dry, I shake the stalks, the seeds fall into the bottom of the trug, and then I can pour them out into small containers for use the next year. And the trugs are pretty!!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Got this one for a friend who loves the one I got last year...she also thinks it would work well filled with ice and bottles of white wine
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The works perfectly to corral my knitting. It is lightweight and easy to lug around the house. It is smooth so the yarn doesn't catch. It has a solid bottom so needled don't poke out.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
When a set of three sizes were sent to my son's family, they were quickly grabbed up by the kids to transport items, especially toys, to Gramma's house. I've utilized them in MANY ways, both inside and outside the house. A GREAT buy!!

I gave this product as a gift to a very particular friend who organizes everything in her home and office. She doesn't garden but has a million uses for the tubtrug and she loved the color as I knew she would.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have one of this size tub and have given others as gifts to most of my family members. Their uses are virtually unlimited, and I love the fact that the bright colors make them easy to find amidst all the greens and browns in the garden! Perhaps the most challenging thing is deciding among the color options! In this part of the country, we have to consider colors that reflect college athletic loyalties when gifting!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Use it all the time!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use a couple of these in the house for carrying water from my rain barrel to flush toilets.
The larger bucket I use outdoors when I prune, water plants, mix soil. and collect rainwater. They are terrific.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I absolutely LOVE this product! I use it for everything, including mixing materials for planting, hauling garden cuttings to the compost heap, even emptying our child's wading pool! My last one would probably have lasted forever had I not dropped it on the garage floor during sub-zero weather and the handles cracked. That was the ONLY drawback I ever found. Love the colors, too!

I have both the 7 and 11 gallon Tubtrugs and love them both. This smaller size is great for mixing and carrying heavier loads like potting soil. I use the smaller size a lot at my potting bench. They've made my gardening chores much easier. Don't know how I got along without them.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Tubtrugs are durable, light weight, easy to handle, and the uses are endless.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I wanted something lightweight but large enough to use when I deadhead the flowers in my flower garden and for other garden clean up. I purchased the 7 gallon Tubtrug, and it is exactly what I needed.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have all three sizes and I am buying them now as gifts.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
The best tub I have ever had---so easy to take anywhere in the garden; much better than lugging a big plastic trash bag around.
Roses need to be placed into water as soon as they are cut so as not to wilt----I use my tub with a small amount of water to place the roses in until I get inside.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have two other trugs, both in black. Bought this because I kept being unable to find the others due to color. This one stands out and is pretty to look at in the garden when in use. Wish the material was a little sturdier as I often haul rocks in mine when digging holes. Use will prove whether I needed to be concerned.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I always hated the way other pails or buckets banged into my shins, so I bought a couple of these. Then I bought a couple of more...and so on.A valued tool for this gardener.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
From cleaning up vegetable waste to picking up cuttings from overgrown plants, from toting tools around to trimming bushes.....this is the best, and most used, tool in my gardening shed. It also DOES NOT fade. I leave it out in the melting sun on my deck quite often in the summer and it really keeps it's good looks. A must-have.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These tubs are easy to store and stack, hold a variety of items, such as clippings, vegetables, flowers, soil, water, etc. I like the fact that they remain upright in spite of being flexible in width, meaning they conform to various size objects, and enables the person carrying the tub to put the handles together to be carried in one hand. A cheerfully colorful addition to a garden or work environment.

Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use my tubtrug for the weeding and grooming chores around my veggie and flower beds and yard. It is so easy to take along as I move from place to place, not leaving mess behind me as I work. It is my favorite new "helper".
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 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, 7 Gallon:
It's lightweight even when filled with clippings.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought an 11 gallon tub two years ago. This year I bought two more 11 gallon ones and a 7 gallon one. I use the small one to carry hand tools and gloves. The bright color makes it easy to spot on the lawn. I load all my tubs into my garden cart so I only have to make one trip. I wouldn't be without them!

Great for trips to the recyling bin
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Not only do these trugs add a brilliant pop of colour to my gardens, they are perfect for every use under the sun. There is not enough room to list all the ways we use the trugs daily. Another plus is they are easy to find when working in heavily wooded areas...the colour just glows.

This purchase was really worth it. I use it for weeding and to lug around all my supplies.

I use it when I weed, it is so easy to move around. It is GREAT as a watering can. I just fill it half full of water, and pull the two handles together which makes a great pouring spout!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I got the 3 gallon size for a present and loved to ues it in the garden. I soon found that I could use a larger size also. I like that they nest together and don't take up much more room when stored toeghter. All my gardener friends are getting a tubtrug for Christmas.

Sturdy yet lightweight and easy to handle. Easy to clean. Nice that it comes in different sizes. Just one won't do.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have used this product again and again. I can take it into small places in my garden when I weed. It's very easy to handle so I bought one for my daughter and she says she loves it. Great product.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have used my tubtrug for gathering produce, carrying water to plants, and hauling supplies from the garage to the garden. It works quite well, and I'm pleased with it. I do wish the green color was a bit more subdued, but at least I won't lose it!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I absolutely love this product. I have three sizes so far (2 of the large ones, a medium and a small) and use one just to carry gardening tools around with me, one is usually used to collect garden refuse, and then dumped into the gardenway cart. I've used them to transport mulch into a large garden, put my grandchildren's outside sand toys into, and put plants into that I've dug up and want to replant elsewhere.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Looking forward to finding many more uses for this...will probably even get a larger one too.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use it indoors and outdoors for many tasks.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I put weeds and dead flowers in the trug as I deadhead my roses and other flowers in the bed. It is soft and light. Very convenient.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I use this tub to hold paper & plastic recycling items on the first floor before carrying downstairs to larger bins in garage. It is perfect! Not only is it colorful and easy on the eyes, but the handles make it possible for me to easily carry it fully loaded down a flight of 15 steps and out to garage. I suffer from arthritis and found the container I was using previously for this purpose not at all user-friendly. I will be ordering additional tubs for other uses outside in garden and also inside the house. You simply can't go wrong with this item --- if it does not meet your intended reason for purchase you are sure to have another one that it will meet sweetly.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Use this multiuse tubtrug for everything. Dust it off, hose it down and start all over again!
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
These tubs are just the right size for yard waste clean-up jobs, especially for a senior citizen gardener with limited strength.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
Amusing colors & easy to move full garden tubs.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I bought a small tubtrug in a color to match my kitchen decor and use it to store dog toys. The pups can easily help themselves and, at the end of the day, I can pick up everything to maintain some semblance of neatness. I use the larger one to store grass clippings and weeds until compost day.
Comments about Colorful Tubtrug, 7 Gallon:
I have had this product for a few weeks and have already come up with a million ways to use it! It worked great for collecting recycleable cans and bottles when having a party.
