Default Reattach wheels and axle to a plastic garbage container?

Thanks so much to both of you for this information!

I know this seems so dumb... I have three large plastic Rubbermaid
outdoor garbage containers with wheels. Over about a year, the
axle/wheels have become separated from the containers. I tried hammering
them back into the groove in the container and I just can't seem to be
able to do it.


You can't do it: You need new end caps on the axle.

When it happened to me, I noticed that the wheels were pretty worn also.
I phoned Rubbermaid and they sent me new wheels, end caps, and axle for
free.
