Abstract: The lawn scoop is designed to make picking up any type of small, loose debris a cleaner and easier task for the user. In general terms, the device is a scoop type shovel with the addition of a multipurpose hook/guide at the top end of the handle. After raking or sweeping the debris into a pile, the user stands in front of the debris and attaches the hook/guide part of the scoop to their front pant pocket or belt. This keeps the scoop at the proper angle while enabling the user to use both hands to rake or sweep the debris onto the scoop. Then, by placing the rake or broom over the top of the scoop, aligning the handles of both the scoop and rake using the hook/guide, the user holds both handles together for lifting and disposal. The hook/guide is also designed as part of the hanging system which provides for convenient storage of the combination of scoop and rake/broom.
