What would you use to drill a hole suitable for mounting a garbage can
where there is no electricity available?

Is that a wooden post the guiderail is attached to? You might have
better luck drilling that.

Thinking the same thing. If the objective is to use fasteners then
driving a couple screws with washers into the post from the inside of
the can is a quick way to do it without drilling someones guard rail.



Use a sharp bit. Or use a $20 Harbor freight magnet.
