Abstract
A lid lock for a waste receptacle having a lid mounted on a hinge and having a closed configuration with the lid covering an opening of the waste receptacle and an open configuration with the lid pivoted away from the opening to allow access to the receptable. The lid defines a pivot path about the hinge. The lid lock includes a lever arm comprising a first portion configured to inhibit pivoting of the lid away from the opening and a second portion configured to be actuated by an automated pick-up arm of a wasted disposal vehicle. It further includes a bin mount co-operable with the lever arm to form a lever action and biasing means configured to bias the lever arm into a position that interferes with movement of the lid from the closed configuration to the open configuration.
