Abstract
A yard scoop (10) includes a tubular support body (16) coupled transversely to one end of a handle (12), a bag (18) received through the support body (16) with the marginal portion surrounding the open end of the bag (18) folded over one end of the support body (16), and a tubular scoop member (20) nested within the support body (16) for retaining the bag walls between the scoop member (20) and the support body (16). The exposed end of the scoop member (20) is configured for scooping waste through the scoop member (20) into the bag (18), which is long enough to extend from the opposed end of the support body (16).
