Abstract
Method and apparatus for an inlet scoop having a larger inlet end and an oppositely disposed smaller outlet end designed so that a conventional trash bag opening can be placed over the smaller end of the inlet scoop and hooked over a protuberance disposed on each corner of the smaller end so that the trash bag can be secured to the inlet scoop. The inlet scoop is generally rectangular shaped so that it can be placed on the surface of the ground and maintain itself in an upright position and has an enlarged portion disposed on each corner to provide additional clearance for the protuberance when the inlet scoops are stacked on top of each other so that no damage is done to the protuberance.
