    Putting a brick on top might also help them being blown around (as well as stop the lids coming open). 

    Another possibility - can you get a bin-store? You say you have no space, but if there's any chance of it, then that should help with all issues. I have NOT chosen an affordable option, but see https://www.wheeliebinstorage.co.uk/ and then google just bin storage ... there are much more affordable sites!

    Be glad it's bins: we have two bins, two boxes, and a heavy-duty bag. We can keep the boxes and bag in the porch until they have to go out on the road for collection: they get blown all over the place and don't necessarily arrive back where they should ...

    I can feel your pain, I had mine tied together (two and two not all 4) but that didn't stop them from all blowing away in the recent storms!

    I've given in and bought one of these (and will tie all 4 together from now on!)
