Abstract
A holder, for supporting a thin, collapsible, self-handle, plastic trash bag, is made of a continuous piece of small-diameter wire, bent into a generally "U"-shaped configuration with a prong and hooks. The holder is designed to fit into a plurality of small holes in the side of a trash container so that the assembly may be made without any fasteners or adhesives, and so that the holder may be removed for transfer to and use with more than one trash container.
