The weed trimmer extension device can be attached to a standard weed trimmer with common fastening components. The cutting enclosure covers a cutting implement, which propels the cuttings, contained and directed by the cutting enclosure, into either the collecting bag or the cutting disperser, which disperses the weed cuttings over an area to the side. A cutting implement can include a cutting blade and a cutting string, so that the cutting string has a greater cutting radius, to allow the cutting string to operate close to an obstruction, without the cutting blade potentially causing damage to the obstruction.
