By far and away, the 20-gallon recycled tubtrug from Gardener’s Supply is one of my favorite garden tools. I have owned three of these heavy-duty tubtrugs for decades. They have thick walls, and their handles have never broken in all the time I’ve used them. Their longevity and functionality easily make up for the lack of color choices compared to other options on the market. These recycled tubtrugs get used for some tough tasks in my garden, like mixing compost and carrying mulch and gravel around the yard. They also make gathering weeds, clippings, and leaves a breeze.
