Abstract
Abstract A device for carrying garment bags and the like which has a handle and a support member integrally formed with the handle. The handle portion serves two functions: the first is as a handgrip for conveniently carrying the device with one or more garment bags or garments on hangers attached to the support member; a second function of the handle is to provide means for alternatively suspending the device and its burden from a clothes pole or a clothes hook. In an alternative embodiment, the device may be conveniently used for the support of such garment bags by a horizontal shelf.
