Abstract:

A receptacle for debris collecting, scooping and trapping having a side wall with an inner surface and an outer surface, an open upper section having a perimeter lip, and a lower section having a bottom end. Located adjacent the perimeter lip at the front of the receptacle is an outward extending first handle located on the bottom end at the rear of the receptacle is an inward extending second handle. Integrally attached to and extending outward from the perimeter lip is a protruding bi-directional ramp. When the receptacle is tipped downward, the protruding bi-directional ramp interfaces with the ground, thereby allowing debris to be directed over the bi-directional ramp into the receptacle. Also, the bi-directional ramp creates a barrier in the form of a hump that prevents debris within the receptacle from falling out of the receptacle.
