Scavenging on bulk trash days is beneficial for everyone; the scavenger gets useful materials without wasting anything, the person trashing the stuff gets rid of it, and the city has less to put in the landfills. Why, then, is this practice illegal? (specifically, in the city of Austin, TX)

It should not be illegal. You should challenge it in court. The US Supreme Court has affirmed the position of lower courts stating that trash brought out to the curb is open to the public. By placing it on the curb for a rubbish removal company to pick up, the resident has removed their "expectation of privacy". Therefore police and the general public can go through this trash as long as the bin is not in the curtilage. Curtilage means area immediately surrounding the home. The curb, or boulevard past the side walk and enterance to a driveway are not considered curtilage.
This is the Open Fields doctrine...

Trash has a lot of bacteria in it and many scavenger for food which might cause them ill health. Yet I do agree with you that people shouldn't be wasting and let the people who find the things they wish to get rid of useful to take have it.

Where I live anything that's put out in the trash is "fair game" for anyone to take.

Because the trash company owns the stuff that's put out, and a lot of it does have value, even if only for recycling, so you're stealing from them.
