So you know how on motorcycles people have those hard "cases" at the back which close with a flap and keep the contents fully contained?

Yeah, I wish someone made those but for a bicycle. It annoys me having to worry about my stuff falling out of the basket into the road every time I go over a bump.

I use a small bungee cargo net on my baskets. They make them specifically for bike basket size. You can also get basket covers for when it rains!

Panniers may do the trick for you. I've also seen some hard cases that attach to the rack.
