* Due to her death on December 10, 2008, Mary Myers no longer has any ownership interest with respect to: (i) the 253,021 Common Shares held by The Mary and Louis Foundation (the “Foundation”), of which Mary Myers was a Trustee and (ii) the 3,442,524 Common Shares held by the Mary S. Myers Revocable Trust dated September 21, 1989, as amended (the “Trust”), of which Mary Myers was the grantor.

     This Amendment No. 4 is filed on behalf of Mary S. Myers and amends the Schedule 13D previously filed by her with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 12, 1999 (“Schedule 13D”) as later amended on each of February 16, 1999, April 24, 2007 and October 16, 2008, relating to the common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Shares”) of Myers Industries, Inc. (the “Issuer”). The purpose of this Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D is to amend the “Purpose of the Transaction” and “Interest in Securities of the Issuer” sections of the Schedule 13D filed by Mary Myers to reflect the fact that Mary Myers is deceased and no longer has any interest in the Common Shares held by the Trust. The information below supplements the information previously reported.

     Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

     For estate planning purposes, Mary Myers established the Trust under Ohio law for the benefit of her descendants and previously transferred ownership of 3,442,524 Common Shares to the Trust. On December 10, 2008, Mary Myers died and her authority with respect to the Common Shares subject to the Trust passed to Ellen J. Myers and Kathryn A. Myers (collectively, the “Co-Trustees”) as the sole trustees of the Trust with authority to control the voting and disposition of the Common Shares held by the Trust. In addition, upon her death, Mary Myers ceased to be a trustee of the Foundation, and therefore no longer has any interest in the Common Shares held by the Foundation.

     Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     (a) Items 7 through 11 and 13 of the cover page of this Schedule 13D which relate to the ownership of Common Shares by the Reporting Person is hereby incorporated by reference in this response.

     (b) Items 7 through 10 of the cover page of this Schedule 13D which relate to the Reporting Person’s voting and dispositive power with respect to the Common Shares which the Reporting Person beneficially owns is hereby incorporated by reference in this response.
