A garbage or trash receptacle lid securing device for securing a lid to a garbage or trash receptacle. The device includes an elongated receptacle band formed of flexible pliable material having a length sufficient for circumferential engagement around an upper open end of the receptacle. A releasable connection for connecting each end of the band together is also provided for adjustably tightening and securing the band when positioned circumferentially around the receptacle. A plurality of radially spaced lid straps are each connected one to another at a mid point thereof and, at each end thereof, at spaced apart points to and along said band. The lid straps are of sufficient length whereby, when said band is circumferentially engaged and tightened in position around the receptacle with the lid in a closed position atop the receptacle, the lid straps are automatically tightly positioned centrally across the lid in a generally radially evenly spaced apart relation one to another for lid retention. Alternately, the receptacle band and lid straps may either or both be formed of elastic material for self-biasing engagement, the receptacle band thus being formed as a continuous stretchable loop.
