An auxiliary handle for use with containers such as bags, pails or cans having handle portions included therewith has a longitudinally arcuate base portion and a pair of side walls converging upwardly from opposite sides of the base portion. A pair of ribs extend from the inner surface of the base portion along the inner surface of each side wall towards the outer edge thereof with the ribs on one wall being opposite the ribs of the other wall so as to define a narrow gap at their point of closest approach. The outer wall or bottom surface of the base portion has transverse finger-receiving recesses therein. The auxiliary handle fits over the handle portion of the container and helps distribute the weight of the container more evenly to ease the load on the person carrying the container. The side walls of the auxiliary handle can be used for advertising purposes.
