    Abstract: A device to hold open a trash bag for easy deposit of garbage in a camping or outdoor picnicking environment while securing the invention to a tree or pole/post while also providing a closable lid to cover the opening and keep out insects. A geometrically shaped frame/bracket is secured to a backing frame in which the entire invention may be mounted to a tree by a strap or mounted by brackets onto a pole or post. The trash bag holder frame is encircled by two tension closed arms which hold the bag firmly in place so it does not slip out when loaded with trash. A lid connected by a pivoting swing connector device is positioned in a manner so it may be lifted up to open position to deposit trash and closed to seal off bag opening from intruding insects and minimize odors from wild animals.
