Abstract: A support for containers such as cans for garbage, trash and the like, comprising a base, a band attached thereto, and a quick release, locking mechanism operably connected to the band for manipulatng the same. The locking mechanism tightens and loosens the band about the container which is disposed on the base, thereby releasably fastening the trash or garbage can to the base. The base is attached to the floor of a building or to the ground in closely spaced relation thereto to prevent the inadvertent upsetting of the can, and requires a minimum of lifting for removal of the trash can. The band is circumferentially adjustable and slideably connected with the base for supporting and securing variously sized cans with stops or keepers to prevent accidental separation of the parts thereof.
