      There's a old guy in Manvel that looks through every trashcan and dumpster he sees. You'd be amazed at some of the stuff he finds. Ofcourse he thinks that everything is worth a million dollars even if its broke but every now and then he finds good stuff. He has a true hording disorder.

          So if somebody can find something that helps them from something I don't need or want......I'm glad to help them.

          Hey, if everybody on TBH would just send me one-dollar a month, then......

          I've actually made over $8000 dollars in past 10-days and part of it was from digging through a guy's recycle bin. But it is all for work, but man, the intelligence you can get from one's trash when they don't shred it.

          PSA: BURN IT, SHRED IT, FLUSH IT, JUST GET RID OF IT IF YOU DON'T WANT PEOPLE KNOWING YOUR BUSINESS, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A CRIMINAL.....

            Go by your local gun range and ask for shot up targets. Get a bunch of them. Then leave one in you trash where it readily can be seen/found. No criminal will want to come in your house to get your stuff.

              I wouldn't dig through someones personal trash but my line of work use to have me picking up equipment from storage facilities across the country regularly. I loved digging in their dumpsters. People would clear out their storage building and just throw perfectly good stuff away.

                more local government to take care of your business? nope!

                what is making it illegal going to do?

                think! don't just ask the government to step in to take care of your pet peeves. SMH

                    When you put something in the trash even the cops don't need a warrant to dig anything out of it.

                          I wouldn't want anybody digging around in my trash can either.

                            As a storage facility owner, I can 'amen' that - people will pay us for 5 years to store their 'valuables'. But when it is time to move out, those 'valuables' are suddenly 'trash' and thrown away to avoid moving them.

                                I bought an airplane a few years ago. Man paid hanger rent for 14 years and never touched the plane. Sold the plane to me for $1k. Amazing how something can go from worth keeping to junk in a matter of minutes
