The invention is a newspaper storage and bundling system, comprising a bin having a bottom panel and four side panels attached to the bottom panel and perpendicular to one another, defining a storage space. A lip connects the side panels opposite the bottom panel. Four reels extend downward from the lip, each near the center of one of the side panels. A rope assembly comprises a rope assembly spacer and four rope ends extending from the rope assembly spacer. The rope assembly spacer is placed on the bottom panel and the rope ends are each wrapped around one of the reels. Newspapers and the like are collected inside the storage space into a newspaper pile, until it reaches the lip. The rope ends are then unwrapped from the reels and are brought together around the newspaper pile and are tied into a knot. A handle, having a base and four hooks extending outward and downward from the base, is centered over the knot, and is then pushed downward and twisted over the knot so that each hook catches one of the rope ends. The handle is then used to lift the newspaper pile.
