A  cabinet with a lock was my solution, too. 


We keep the trash cans locked.  We change the locks every three  months, as 
they learn to pick the old ones.  We also do a search every few  weeks to make 
sure there are no lock picks in the dog houses.  We also have  to do a search 
of each dog on a weekly basis as they try to hide keys and other  wire that 
they can use to overcome our locks in their coats.
 
Also, we are careful to make sure they don't find explosives, as then tend  
to try to blow up the cookie jars. So, we have a weapon sniffing cat that comes 
 by every month to scan for explosives. We make the dogs stand outside while  
mittens goes through their stuff.  It is our weekly "cat scan".
 
We do check for stethoscopes as they try to pick the locks, and it is  easier 
to keep them away from the equipment, so that they can't find out the  
combinations.
 
It works for us.  Only the really smart ones get to the trash.
