Dumpster Diving on Trash Day - I beat the garbage trucks to the best trash!

Рет қаралды 199,352

Күн бұрын

Another day, another dumpster! :) I am so glad I woke up early today because not only did I beat the trash trucks, I also beat the rain! I am really curious why so many children’s shoes were thrown away.. especially in such nice (or new) condition!
As always, thank you so much for watching my channel - It is still so wild to me that so many of you like watching my trash picking adventures - you have no idea how much I appreciate all the support and encouragements!! Have a great week!

Donate suitcases and bags you find to Foster places. They don't usually give foster kids suitcases and they gotta carry their stuff in trash bags. So it will def be used if you donate it to a foster place.

You literally made the comment you beat the trash truck. I truly believe something along those lines is what happened to that woman it's so sad.

If you can separate the junior legos from the older kid (and adults lol) legos. They wash really well in dishwashers if put in net bags. Just don't dry them in the washer, hang dry and shake them every once in a while to get all the water out of the nooks and crannies. Bag and sell per kind.

If you are looking for somewhere to donate the suitcase, foster kids often don't have anything to carry what few belongings they have from home to home, a suitcase instead of a trash bag can help them immensely.
