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.

    Most Practical

    Posted by Margaret Owen on Apr 15th 2017

    I ordered these for something to store recycling in because our city provides only a giant cart that doesn't fit in the house! These are perfect. I didn't realize until I got them that the handles can be closed together and carried like a bag. Perfect!

    heavy-duty trug

    Posted by John Grubb on Mar 13th 2017

    I do a lot of gardening and have a lot of trugs, because they're handy for so many things. The one I purchased from Kinsman is my latest, and it seems to be a little heavier duty than ones I've gotten from other sources.

    Years of Abuse

    Posted by City Catering on Dec 19th 2016

    This is the trug you want. Accept no other. We've been abusing these at my catering company for over 10 years now. We own about 80 of them. They are tough -- including the handle. They are routinely frozen, filled with ice water and bottled beer, used as keg tubs, and pressed into service in my yard to haul dirt and rubble. They take it all. These are the Spanish ones and are tough to find in the USA. We originally were buying in Portland, OR whenever we visited but the garden shop went out of business. I've been buying from Kinsman for about 4 years now. In between re-finding a retailer, we bought some inferior trugs -- every single one broke at the handle within a year. We have never had one of these break. We keep buying them because we are getting busier not because they break!

    Large Black Trug

    Posted by Cheyl on Oct 10th 2016

    Love the size & quality of this Trug tub. The one that I bought from Kinsman about 15 years ago is still in excellent condition. It fits my Little Giant Muck cart perfectly. I ordered more since I realized that this was the tub that I use the most.

    First purchase of these was more than 20 years ago. They're still going strong after all those years of heavy use.

    Used these when I managed an acre and use them now in my postage stamp back yard. Such a versatile tool!
