A collapsible bag includes a flexible bag with a first side panel having a bottom edge and a bottom panel connected to the bottom edge to define a juncture between the first side panel and the bottom panel. A bracket is connected to the flexible bag adjacent the juncture and includes a transport wheel assembly. Additionally, a telescoping handle is connected to the bracket and the first side panel and extends from the juncture. A support assembly is movably connected at a proximate end to the bracket and connected at a distal end to the bottom panel such that the bottom panel is selectively movable between an operable orientation defined when the bottom panel is disposed transverse to the telescoping handle and the first side panel and a storage orientation defined when the bottom panel is disposed parallel to the telescoping handle and the first side panel.

What is claimed is: 1. A collapsible bag comprising: a flexible bag including a first side panel having a bottom edge and a bottom panel connected to the bottom edge of the first side panel to define a juncture between the first side panel and the bottom panel; a bracket connected to the flexible b
What is claimed is: 1. A collapsible bag comprising: a flexible bag including a first side panel having a bottom edge and a bottom panel connected to the bottom edge of the first side panel to define a juncture between the first side panel and the bottom panel; a bracket connected to the flexible bag adjacent the juncture and including a transport wheel assembly; a telescoping handle connected to the bracket and the first side panel and extending from the juncture; and a support assembly movably connected at a proximate end to the bracket and connected at a distal end to the bottom panel such that the bottom panel is configured to selectively move between an operable orientation defined when the bottom panel is disposed transverse to the telescoping handle and the first side panel and a storage orientation defined when the bottom panel is disposed parallel to the telescoping handle and the first side panel, wherein the bottom panel comprises a support area located adjacent to the juncture and a bottom plate contiguous to the support area, the support area comprising a cutout portion to which a portion of the support assembly is inserted when the bottom plate moves from the operable orientation to the storage orientation, and wherein the bracket comprises a pivot mechanism attached to the support area of the bottom panel to pivot the support assembly between the operable orientation and the storage orientation, the support area configured not to move between the operable orientation and the storage orientation when the bottom plate moves between the operable orientation and the storage orientation. 2. The collapsible bag of claim 1, wherein the support assembly further comprises a slidably connected collar to lock the support assembly in the operable orientation when the collar is slid to the proximate end of the support assembly. 3. The collapsible bag of claim 2, wherein the support assembly further comprises support legs for resting the collapsible bag on the ground. 4. The collapsible bag of claim 1, wherein the transport wheel assembly includes two sets of two transport wheels. 5. The collapsible bag of claim 1, further comprising a second side panel and a third side panel connected to the first side panel and the bottom panel, wherein each of the second side panel and the third side panel includes an inside surface with a first securing means for holding a separator panel extending between the second side panel and the third side panel and attached to first securing means by a second securing means. 6. The collapsible bag of claim 5, wherein the first and second securing means are respectively opposite sides of a hook and loop material. 7. A collapsible bag comprising: a collapsible enclosure having a bottom panel and four side panels, the bottom panel including a top surface, a support area, a bottom plate and an edge, whereby one of the four side panels is connected to the edge of the bottom panel to form a juncture; a bracket located adjacent to the juncture, connected to the support area of the bottom panel and including a transport wheel assembly, the support area located adjacent the juncture and contiguous with the bottom plate; a telescoping handle connected to the bracket and extending from the juncture; and a support assembly movably connected to a proximate end to the bracket and connected at a distal end to the bottom panel such that the bottom panel is movable between an operable orientation defined when the bottom panel is disposed transverse to the telescoping handle and a storage orientation defined when the bottom panel is disposed parallel to the telescoping handle, wherein the bracket comprises a pivot mechanism attached to the support area of the bottom panel to pivot the bottom plate between the operable orientation and the storage orientation, and wherein the support area comprises a cutout portion to which a portion of the support assembly is inserted when the bottom panel moves from the operable orientation to the storage orientation, the support area configured not to move between the operable orientation and the storage orientation when the bottom plate moves between the operable orientation and the storage orientation. 8. The collapsible bag of claim 7, wherein the support assembly comprises a slidably connected collar to lock the support assembly in the operable orientation when the collar is slid to the proximate end of the support assembly. 9. The collapsible bag of claim 8, wherein the support assembly further comprises support legs for resting the collapsible bag on the ground. 10. The collapsible bag of claim 7, wherein the transport wheel assembly includes two sets of two transport wheels. 11. The collapsible bag of claim 7, further comprising a second side panel and a third side panel connected to the bottom panel and the first side panel, wherein each of the second side panel and the third side panel includes an inside surface with a first securing means for holding a separator panel extending between the second side panel and the third side panel and attached to first securing means by a second securing means. 12. The collapsible bag of claim 11, wherein the first and second securing means are respectively opposite sides of a hook and loop material. 13. A collapsible bag mounting structure, comprising: a bracket; a telescoping handle with a first bag support to support a first side panel of a collapsible bag, the telescoping handle connected to the bracket at a juncture along a first orientation; a transport wheel assembly connected to the juncture; and a support assembly with a second bag support located between a proximate end and a distal end to support a bottom panel of the collapsible bag, the support assembly movably connected between an operable orientation and a storage orientation to the bracket at the proximate end, the operable orientation defined when the support assembly is in a second orientation substantially perpendicular to the first orientation of the telescoping handle, and a storage orientation defined when the support assembly is substantially parallel to the first orientation, wherein the bottom panel comprises a support area located adjacent to the juncture and a bottom plate contiguous with the support area, the support area comprising a cutout portion to which a portion of the support assembly is inserted when the support assembly moves from the operable orientation to the storage orientation, the support area configured not to move between the operable orientation and the storage orientation when the bottom plate moves between the operable orientation and the storage orientation, and wherein the bracket comprises a pivot mechanism attached to the support area of the bottom panel to pivot the support assembly between the operable orientation and the storage orientation. 14. The collapsible bag mounting structure of claim 13, wherein the support assembly comprises a slidably connected collar to lock the support assembly in the operable orientation when the collar is slid to the proximate end of the support assembly. 15. The collapsible bag mounting structure of claim 14, wherein the support assembly further comprises support legs for resting the mounting structure on the ground. 16. The collapsible bag mounting structure of claim 13, wherein the transport wheel assembly includes two sets of two transport wheels. 17. The collapsible bag mounting structure of claim 13, wherein the bracket includes reinforcement ribs.
