How to drag large garbage can?
Our city provides large garbage cans, about 4' tall and 30" square. Full,
they can weigh up to 200 pounds, especially if we fill them with heavy ice plant. Our home is located at the bottom of a fairly steep driveway (50' in length). We have three of these black cans for household garbage and landscape debris. I am getting on in years (80 YO) and find it hard to roll these monster cans up to the curb for pickup by the garbage truck. I have tried tying them (one at a time) to the hook for my trunk lid inside my trunk. The problem is, the cans meander something awful when I pull them up the hill with my car, to the point where I am afraid they might tip over sideways. I have used heavy rope and also bungee cords. Same problem. Any better suggestion, anyone? Thank you. -- - Walter www.rationality.net |
