Need advise on housesitting for in-laws

I have 4.5 months of sobriety. I was actually a lot stronger the first 3mo's, but have recently been having thoughts of drinking again. I've tried recently to avoid all tempting triggers, even changing channels on alcohol commercials, ect. I have to stay at my in laws house for a week starting today to watch all the farm animals. They live about 2hrs away from me, so I have to stay there. Problem is they have beer and wine in the fridges, and probably other drinks around. I haven't gotten there yet to check it out. I can't leave it in there, but I can't throw away all their alcohol. They are "normal" drinkers and don't know the extent of all my issues. I've been to embarrassed to say anything as they are the beaver cleaver type of folks. Any ideas on how to get rid of the alcohol without throwing it out? I can't hide it from myself anymore (since I've been sober anyway)?
