I need a quick idea on how to secure my yellow bin against strong gusts of wind. The plastic bin is just too light, and the gusts regularly tip it over, spreading the trash across the property. Yes, I know, a bin storage shed would help, but I’m not going to get one and set it up quickly right now.
I’ve already tried leaning stones against it, but the leverage is just too small. Tying it down? Hammering iron nails into the ground on all four sides?
I’m going away over the holidays, and my wife will be alone here. I don’t want to burden her with having to constantly go outside and put the trash back in.
I would appreciate a few quick, smart ideas.

A shelter like that is obviously great. Unfortunately, we only have plastic cabinets... For a quick fix, like first aid, I would simply move the bin. At the moment, the wind is coming from the NW, and there is nothing like a gust or similar in the east that could set a trash bin in motion.
