An open ended bag-spreading frame structure comprising, a plurality of longitudinal extending frame members with cross members extended therebetween, the connections between the longitudinal frame members and the cross members permitting the frame structure to be collapsed into a double thickness frame for compact packaging and storage while permitting the same to be erected into expanded operative position having a generally rectangular cross section and being of substantially the same length as the bag into which it is inserted to hold the bag open, said connections between the longitudinal and cross frame members being provided with means for maintaining the frame structure in expanded operative position within a flexible bag, and a pair of skid elements integrally formed with the underlying lower longitudinal frame members in downwardly spaced relation thereto adjacent to the mouth portion of the frame assembly to permit insertion of the bag between the skid elements and the frame and thus maintain the lower portions of the bag in spaced relation above the ground surface with the bag and frame assembly are positioned with the skid elements in ground-engaging orientation.
