Please note that the manufacturer updated the mold for the medium size and the handles differ slightly from the other two sizes.


Flexible, versatile carriers for the garden with dozens of uses around the home.

Available in 3 sizes:

SMALL-11" high x 14" rim diameter, 25 liters, 6.6 gallons capacity
MEDIUM-13" high x 17" rim diameter, 40 liters, 10.5 gallons capacity
LARGE-12" high x 21" rim diameter, 55 liters, 14.5 gallons capacity

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.

    Great Trug!

    Posted by Karen Zalenski on Apr 10th 2016

    My medium-sized Trug is going to be a great thing for me and my garden. It's lightweight and really flexible. It holds a lot.

    Tug Trug

    Posted by Nick Engler on Sep 18th 2015

    It is smaller and more flexible than I am used to consequently I have to pull it as opposed to push it. The real test will be later this fall as the weather gets colder.

    Trug Garden Tub

    Posted by Deb Geppert on Aug 5th 2015

    Wonderful help in the garden! I got the small (can't imagine how big the larger sizes are because the 10 gallon is plenty big!) and it's so nice to have something large enough that I don't have to stuff each handful of garden clippings into, and that's flat on the bottom and doesn't tip over easily like a bucket will. It's tough and could be used for all sorts of storage in the house, too! Would make a great, inexpensive gift for gardening friends!

    These are wonderful, I wouldn't be without them, use them every day I'm in the garden: gathering weeds, loading tree & shrub trimmings, mixing compost & potting soil, carrying water, lugging rocks & gravel. Undergoing this heavy usage, my six have held up for over ten years, with handles still intact! (Whereas the colored versions have broken after a year's use.) Don't ever stop stocking these! I will continue to give them as gifts to gardener friends.

    Too many uses to count. If you do any kind of outdoor gardening/yard work, you will love these. Very flexible for ease of carrying and pouring, Very tough and can withstand heavy & rough use.

    Good and Solid

    Posted by Mary Steele on Apr 11th 2015

    I had found such trugs many years ago at Lee Valley, but recently the only kind offered are the brightly colored ones. The brightly colored ones are pretty but they deteriorate rapidly. The original ones endure, probably forever. I'm delighted to have found another source for the durable ones!
