Thanks for the reply. I've seen those hygenic tooks, but was a bit
concerned that they wouldn't reach deep into the bin...which is about
4 feet deep. Some of the shovels/pitchforks I looked at didn't seem
to be much longer that 4ft. The top fruit should be easy to get at,
but that bottom stuff might be an issue. I'd really like to avoid
climbing into the bin...but that may be the only option. -David
