Abstract: A new yard sweepings collection device comprises a triangular frame having one side frame member extending well beyond the triangular frame to form a convenient handle. A garbage or yard and garden plastic bag opening is wrapped around the triangular frame and secured by a plurality of nail or spike ends extending outwardly from the frame. Plastic bags having openings larger than the triangular opening are accommodated by gathering the excess plastic at the top of the frame and impaling the excess on the nail ends at the top of the frame. The plurality of nail ends on each side member of the frame accommodates plastic bags with openings somewhat smaller than the frame opening. Adjacent the nails and attached to the frame are guards to reduce the likelihood of inadvertently brushing against the nails. In addition, a runner may be attached to the bottom frame member to support and protect the plastic bag against abrasion and tearing from objects on the ground.
