I go dumpster diving on a daily basis. I usually don't find anything worth keeping though.

I easily have on no account regarded for nutrition. sooner or later i got here across a very long piece of severe high quality ninety Ohm coaxial cable in a dumpster the place some changes to an place of work development have been being completed, interestingly it replaced into coax from a working laptop or laptop community. considering that this is close adequate to the seventy 5 Ohm coax frequently utilized in television antennas, I liberated it and quickly used it to repair a television antenna. I easily have had perfect reception ever considering that, even earlier digital got here in right here final twelve months. and that's on the subject of the only time.

To be honest, if I actually did the diving, I'd be the next thing you'd find. I wouldn't be able to climb out again.
But, I've trained my kids right! I noticed a griddle, looked new, and asked my son what he thought. I came inside and a few minutes later he came back in and said, "Mom, you've got to see this!" He was so excited.
I went out and he had an entire box of stuff from the dumpster...Revere Ware set of stove top pots and and pans, the double-burner cast iron griddle, a Daisy (circa 1917) butter churn, a pizza stone, a set of Ginzu knives still in the original shipping carton, and a small stroller for dogs. He later took the butter churn to the antique store in the village, and he sold it to the owner for $125. Not a bad day for a diving lesson!

I love Dumpster Diving! People are always throwing away partial bottles of beer! I can fill this mug up 2 or 3 times with one dumpster! Helps me through Mondays...

Actually, I've never been Dumpster Diving! Dad and Mom raised us kids to think it's a bad thing. I am not sure why they were so dead set against it but I've never tried it. Funny, I've never given the matter any thought until you asked this question. Hmmmm, guess one is never too old to start.

i would wait until the college kids were moving out. they usually didn't have room for all of the stuff, so in the dumpster (box mall) it would go. i got a small black and white TV, a nice chair, and lamps
