Abstract
A device is provided for conveniently holding a flexible bag open and extended so as to be filled and which is particularly designed to enable a user to quickly and easily form a tightly twisted closure for removal of a loaded bag. The device features a base upon which a support platform and stand are rotatably mounted with the stand having a wirelike frame construction promoting access to a loaded bag for efficient removal from the support platform upon spinning the bag to form an open top of the bag into a tightly wound closure serving as a handle for the bag.
