SECURECAN: Secure Almost Anything, Anywhere, Anytime, even Yourself

One afternoon on our way to a friend’s house, there were Trash Bins on wheels all over the street. When we arrived at the home, their trash bins were missing. We found one at a neighbor’s house almost one block away. We knew something was needed to secure Trash Bins, and other items especially when there are storms, heavy rain, and high-winds in the area. Additionally, in instances when birds, animals, and rodents get into the bins, they can make a mess of litter all over the yard.
When we searched vendors and the internet for a solution to secure the trash bins, we couldn't find anything. This is why we created "SECURECAN".

We've taken SECURECAN, on camping trips to secure the tent and other gear. We've taken the kit to the beach to secure beach umbrellas & sun shelters. It can be used in boating, fishing, floods, hurricanes and other emergency situations to secure property, equipment and people.  The kit is easy to install and depending on how, where, and type of surface, it takes less than 5 minutes. 

The kit comes complete with what you need to secure something. If you want to install it into the ground, all you need is a hammer. If you want to remove it, you'll need a small garden shovel to dig it out. Once its removed, hose off the dirt, wipe it down, and put a drop of oil on the anchor to keep the parts moving freely.   To free style it, just try to loop it around something stable.  You can determine how to use it depending on the situation.  

If you install it into a deck post, concrete or a foundation, you will need to drill a 1" hole. It's a DIY tool; think creatively, but test your ideas first for safety.

If you install the kit to secure your trash bins all you do is install it once and leave it in place. When your trash servicing company comes, show them how easy it is to disconnect (push the spring) and reconnect (just push the connector onto the bin). It is so easy for the recyclers and you’re not dealing with trash and bins all over your street. 

The Securecan Kit is light weight, just over 2.5-3 lbs, but very strong, and can be deployed in very cold or hot weather, that's what makes it unsurpassed in durability and usage. 

THINGS TO CONSIDER:

The kit or the separated M-3 connector can be used in many different task and construction projects.  Once you have one you'll get ideas and develop ways to put it into use.   The product is so versatile, you'll see the many applications that can help make the project easier.

Consider this; who will be liable if your bins roll into the street and cause an accident or worse?

Once you have one, tell the neighbors so they can help keep the streets clear and solve this problem. It will be so nice to come home and not have trash cans all over the streets.

Over a year ago a Child riding the bike on the side walk rode out into the street, dodging a moving trash bin, and was hit by a passing car. What if you are driving on a road and one of the empty bins roll out in front of you? Trash bins can be dangerous when left on the side of the road or your driveway unsecured.
