How do I secure wobbly rattan storage shelves up against a wall in my garage?

my husband is not handy at all I can not afford to hire a handy man right now . I have this great rattan shelving unit that needs some support it wobbles I am afraid it will tip over I store my heavy cooking pots and pans, and cook books.

Can Mr. Notsohandy use a screwdriver? Send him to the hardware store for four 1/4"x 2" lag screws and four 1/4" fender washers. Tap on the wall to find the stud, mark it with a pencil line, then get him to screw the lag screws (with the washers on them) through the rattan and into the stud.

    Major hardware stores have earthquake safety kits that attach the unit to the wall with molly bolts and velcro strips. Check them out.
