Leaf Burrito
REUSABLE YARD BAG OFFERS SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION FOR MUNICIPALITIES AND WASTE HAULERS
Leaf Burrito is made of industrial-grade mesh which lays completely flat on the lawn as users pile up brush, leaves, weeds, grass clippings and branches. When done, users fold over the two edges and zip them into the classic “burrito” shape. Sanitation workers can use its heavy-duty carrying straps to ergonomically lift the bag to the truck for emptying and return it back to the curb, just as they would with a garbage can. This yard waste collection tool is designed to help prevent plastic from entering the landfill, complements city-wide plastic bag bans, eliminates paper bags, allows municipalities to efficiently collect yard debris, and provides waste haulers with a unique way to differentiate their service when bidding on municipal contracts.
