Crossword Genius

Wrap container to be given to daughter (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bind

'wrap' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'container to be given to daughter' is the wordplay.
'container' becomes 'bin' (bin is a type of container).
'to be given to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'bin'+'d'='BIND'

(Other definitions for bind that I've seen before include "Restrict" , "Tie up; annoyance" , "Wrap tightly - nuisance" , "Tie together" , "difficult situation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
