They're black and tough, but light and easy to carry. Made from 100% polyethylene, they're as hardwearing as a car tire. Unaffected by freezing cold or boiling water.

Use Trug-Tubs for weeding and pruning- they stand upright reliably. Then grab both handles with one hand for easy carrying. Use them for carrying tools and mixing potting soils. They'll even carry liquids without splashing and you can pour from them easily. Use them for carrying firewood and as party ice buckets. Because they're so flexible, they won't dent or rust and are easy to keep clean. Made in Spain for harvesting fruit in orchards.

I put it right to work the day it arrived. I used it for grass clippings, mixing soil and carrying water. Very handy. I may buy another.

Can't garden without them

I purchased one of these trugs probably 15 years ago. It has been a much used workhorse. But about 5 years ago, a new four legged family member thought the handle made a great chew toy. I have tried working with it with just one handle, but I finally gave in and purchased another. Sadly, stupidly, I waited until most of the spring "getting the garden ready for summer" was over, but I guess that is what finally spurred me to purchase a second. I had purchased a lesser quality, smaller one at the local big box, but the quality was just not the same. Oh well, I expect that this one will last the rest of my life, as long as I keep it away from the needles of puppy teeth.

Just What I Needed

I like to mix soil up for my various plants in containers. The trugsI had were all too small to accommodate the various soils and amendments I like to use. Then I found this commodious, sturdy beauty. Love it.

Black trug very useful

The black trug is large, sturdy and very useful. Right now we are using it to carry firewood. Glad we got it.

Much larger and heavier than I expected. A little hard for me to handle, but will use it. I have a smaller one that is easier for me, will probably order another like it as my husband keeps stealing it from me.

These are the sturdiest muck buckets I have ever seen, and we use a lot of different brands on our farms.

Just Right!

I ordered two large trug tubs for my church's garden. They are as tough as can be. The trugs I bought for my own use from Kinsman years ago continue to be used on a regular basis.
