Alternatively, some of these wheeled cans have a bar in the front for the hydraulic arms, and you may could have a robot that aligns to that bar(if it exists--mine does) and then lifts it up via that, which seems to use much less force in my experiments[yes, I've been playing around with automated trashcan systems too lol].
