Thank you for asking about wind resistance in our outdoor trash cans! This is such an important feature for keeping your property tidy, especially in open or windy areas.
Our most stable models are specifically engineered to withstand challenging weather. The "AnchorPoint 45" and "StormGuard 65" bins lead our lineup with the highest wind resistance ratings. They are tested to remain stable in winds up to 75 mph without tipping over. This is achieved through a combination of a low center of gravity, a heavily weighted base, and a secure, locking lid system that prevents it from becoming a sail.
The key to their stability isn't just the weight; it's the intelligent design. The aerodynamic shape helps wind flow around the can rather than catching it, while the reinforced base ensures it stays grounded. For added security, we offer an optional ground anchor kit.
We always recommend placing any trash can in a somewhat sheltered location, like against a wall or fence, for the best performance. Our high-wind models give you the peace of mind that your waste will stay contained, even during a sudden squall or a stormy season.
