Why must all bomb resistant trash receptacles be anchored when they are being deployed?
Bomb receptacles are extremely heavy and during an explosion they could tip, roll, and gain momentum, which creates a serious threat to anybody in their path. Also, if there is a secondary explosive device that does not detonate during the initial explosion, a cannon effect could be created for the second explosion.
