The container support bracket has a container support member preferably pivotally attached to a rung engagement structure. The container support member has a second extension member, a first support member and a second support member, which in combination are preferably in the form of an inverted T-shape. For use with hollow rung ladders, the rung engagement structure has a first extension member which is adapted to be inserted into a hollow rung of the ladder. For use with flat rung ladders, the rung engagement structure is adapted to engage a flat rung of the ladder. Such structures are provided which have at least one support member which rests on the top of the engaged rung and anti-rotation member to keep the structure in place when a paint can is hung from the container support member.
