I claim: 1. A method of lifting and transporting a five gallon bucket, said method comprising the steps of: providing a bucket having a bottom wall and a peripheral wall being attached to and extending upwardly from said bottom wall, said bottom wall being circular; providing a coupler configured to be removably attached to said bucket, said coupler including; a post having a top end, a bottom end, a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side; a lower handle being attached to said back side of said post; a plurality of arms each having a first end and second end, each of said first ends being attached to one of said first and second lateral sides such that each of said first and second lateral sides has at least one arm attached thereto, each of said arms being positioned in a plane orientated perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said post and being arcuate and being curved away from said lower handle; at least one loop being attached to one of said second ends of at least one arm extending away from said first lateral side such that each of said arms extending away from said first lateral side has a loop attached thereto; at least one strap being attached to one of said second ends of at least one arm extending away from said second lateral side such that each of said arms extending away from said first lateral side has a strap attached thereto, said at least one strap having a free end being removably extendable through said at least one loop; abutting each of said arms against said peripheral wall and extending said straps around said bucket; extending said straps through said loops such that said bucket is urged toward said post; and lifting said bucket with said coupler. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the lower handle includes a grip member having an upper end and a lower end, each of a pair of legs being attached to and extending away from one of said upper and lower ends such that said lower handle is generally U-shaped, each of said legs being attached to said back side. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein a first of said legs is positioned adjacent to said bottom end and a second of said legs is generally positioned between said bottom end and said top end. 4. The method according to claim 1, wherein said plurality of arms at least includes a first pair of arms being positioned generally between said top and bottom ends. 5. The method according to claim 4, wherein said plurality of arms further includes a second pair of arms being positioned generally adjacent to said bottom end. 6. The method according to claim 5, wherein said coupler further includes a plurality of tabs, a first of said tabs being attached to a first one of said second pair of arms and a second of said tabs being attached to a second one of said second pair of arms, said first and second tabs generally extending toward each other, said method further including the step of abutting said bottom wall against each of said tabs. 7. The method according to claim 6, further providing a third of said tabs being attached to said bottom end and extending outwardly away from said front side of said post. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein said coupler further includes an upper handle being rotatably coupled to said back side of said post, said upper handle being positioned adjacent to said top end of said post, said upper handle comprising a panel having a hand receiving opening extending therethrough. 9. A method of lifting and transporting a five gallon bucket, said method comprising the steps of: providing a bucket having a bottom wall and a peripheral wall being attached to and extending upwardly from said bottom wall, said bottom wall being circular; providing a coupler configured to be removably attached to said bucket, said coupler including; a post having a top end, a bottom end, a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side; a lower handle being attached to said back side of said post and being spaced from said top end, said lower handle including a grip member having an upper end and a lower end, each of a pair of legs being attached to and extending away from one of said upper and lower ends such that said lower handle is generally U-shaped, each of said legs being attached to said back side, a first of said legs being positioned adjacent to said bottom end and a second of said legs being generally positioned between said bottom end and said top end; a first pair of arms each having a first end and a second end, each of said first ends of said first pair of arms being attached to and extending away from one of said first and second lateral sides, said first pair of arms being positioned in a plane orientated perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said post, said first pair of arms being positioned generally between said top and bottom ends, said first pair of arms being arcuate and being curved away from said lower handle; a second pair of arms each having a first end and a second end, each of said first ends of said second pair of arms being attached to and extending away from one of said first and second lateral sides, said second pair of arms being positioned in a plane orientated perpendicular to said longitudinal axis of said post, said second pair of arms being positioned generally adjacent to said bottom end, said second pair of arms being arcuate and being curved away from said lower handle; an upper handle being rotatably coupled to said back side of said post, said upper handle being positioned adjacent to said top end of said post, said upper handle comprising a panel having a hand receiving opening extending therethrough; a pair of loops, each of said loops being attached to one of said second ends of said arms extending away from said first lateral side; a pair of straps, each of said straps having an attached end and a free end, each of said attached ends being attached to one of said second ends of said arms extending away from said second lateral side, each of said free ends being removably extendable through one of said loops; a plurality of tabs, a first of said tabs being attached to a first one of said second pair of arms and a second of said tabs being attached to a second one of said second pair of arms, said first and second tabs generally extending toward each other, a third of said tabs being attached to said bottom end and extending outwardly away from said front side of said post; abutting each of said arms against said peripheral wall and extending said straps around said bucket; abutting said bottom wall against each of said tabs; extending said straps through said loops such that said bucket is urged toward said post; and lifting said bucket with said coupler.
