Abstract: A pipe support apparatus includes a sleeve for being positioned along a length of a stake to be inserted into a ground surface of a trench. A sleeve projection extends outwardly from an outer surface of the sleeve. A hook is to extend partially about and cradle a pipe. The hook operatively has an upper end and a lower end, and the hook is pivotally coupled to the sleeve projection at its upper end for movement generally along a vertical plane from a lowered or engaged position to a raised or disengaged position. A handle is coupled to the hook and operatively extends upwardly therefrom for grasping and moving the hook between its engaged and disengaged positions.
