ABSTRACT:
A retainer for holding a cover onto a garbage can includes readily disconnectable holding means suitable for holding onto a garbage can handle, a spring joined to the holding means, a chain joined to the spring and holding means for passing through the other garbage can handle, after the retainer has been passed through the cover handle, and for holding onto the chain at a desired position so as to adjust the length of the retainer and the force by which it holds the cover to the garbage can. The spring means, in its normally most extended use position, is positioned below the top of the garbage can cover so that it remains unbent in use.
