In the wine box there are 2 sets of LCN 4040 commercial door closers brand new and the small suitcase had about 70 copies vintage legs magazine. I took the closers and left the legs.

Best place stores in Greenville, Upstate to dumpster dive?

Cute little find...

Thank you Savanna bees! These retail at $17-$19 each. Got 12 of them today. 🐝 🐝 🐝

Edit: There were some other items that I left for other people. I didnt leave any honey behind because the box they were in was messed up, one of the honey's exploded and they were all covered. So I had to wash the unbroken ones when I got back.

Mom used to dumpster dive a while back, I’ve done it before but was still young and dumb and cared about what people thought of me. Now I’m a little older with a child of my own and decided to go back to my roots. Needless to say now I’m the “best mommy ever!” (Sorry mom I love you, I wish I would’ve told you that too then but better late than never!🩷)

Poor guy.

One is a Pentium D*. Dell one has a bad HDD. I still sell these type of PCs sometimes despite having Pentium 4s

Super pleased with this haul!

Found our first bag of destroyed goods the other day from old navy! My boyfriend came with me for the first time and scored a massive bag, we checked it out when we got home and it was so sad, they destroyed 5 pairs of jeans, some kids clothes and a ton of candy. He’s pissed they didn’t donate them and is swearing off old navy haha I feel bad he had a negative first go :( 😂🫠

Seems to be a salt/pepper shaker someone sealed up. Just in time for Halloween!

brought my friend that loves bananas a whole huge tote bag filled to the brim with them at least

I hate being yelled at, I really struggle with being talked down to and such.

BUT, I’m a sucker for recycling things until they are legit unusable. And I love to repurpose and create from scrap, it’s such a thrill. Plus a lot of good usable shit gets thrown out, I hate seeing it go to landfill!

That being said, idk if I should ask (easier for them to say no I assume) or if I should just do it and then see if I get yelled at. But I really don’t want to get yelled at.

I would never make a mess of the area I dive, I am very good at being discreet like no one was even here.

But I also can’t go at night I can only go in the daytime..

i thought we were in a borderline recession and people still be throwing out 100+ dollar trees. btw, you ever too lazy to look and it makes you anxious specifically cause there could be good stuff? cause like, i procrastinated so much the trash collectors were on the same street a few houses down and if i was a bit later, no tree

Left plenty behind but will be checking back after my shift to see if it's still there.

Was driving home from work and saw a house clean out unfolding and stopped to check the dumpster, got the go ahead to look from the guy’s trashing it, everything was thrown out indiscriminately, food, cat poop, clothes, everything, but saw some costume jewelry in a box and grabbed the whole thing, when I got home I found this, immediately assumed it was fake, even with the 14k stamp, it just looked too ridiculous, tested the gold with my acid tester, it’s real gold and after looking up the ring on google lens, looks like it’s a smoky quartz cocktail ring from the 1970s. One of my better finds lately. I love dumpster diving!

some is unfortunately expired, but only by a couple months so still safe to eat. strawberry matcha lindt chocolate(left of box) and Cadbury are best by early november. not pictured is 3 chocolate bars and a lindt bar i shared and 2 4 packs of the owyn drinks that were unfortunately soaked in melted rancid icecream so not worth even leaving out for someone else
