Make sure you do not violate any local laws. Curbside pickup in the better neighborhoods can yield many treasures just waiting.
Dumpsters in retirement communities also yield a lot. Some businesses dispose of old merchandise at times. I have seen people make a good living from dumpster diving.

I tink you can drive around any neighbourhood on garbage day and take items that are separate from the bagged stuff. People put stuff out hoping it will be taken by someone rather than for landfill. I think going through bags is an invasion of privacy.

This is one nasty question, but i admire you for thinking differently. Good luck with your yard sale. Hope you make lots of cash.

If it's out in front of someones house, by the curb then its considered trash and free for all.

This is why yard and garage sales aren't what they used to be.

Depends on your local law. In my neighborhood, it's done all the time.
