item out one day & soon enough you realize No More
Vacuum sales stores were great for about 8 years but I don't see any out Any More for the last 2 years
utility company's used to never bother me then in time the scrap yard has an actual container there
so that's off limits.
Construction sights can be good .
Old tube TV's seem forever but they will stop some day , leaving Flats next, not really my thing .
I'm in a unique situation I generally had to stop collecting , I am booming full
I usually stay away from dumpsters on account of I dont want to ruffle any feathers.... I do scrap stuff as side income and for fun, dont need a confrontation. With taking trash off the curb, no one cares, in fact often times people will see me and wave me down and say "hey! you do scrap stuff? I got a mower and a bike and .... do you want it?" ..... Dumpsters seem to be too much liability and risk of tresspassing charges. The ONE time I hit a dumpster, the very first time I mustered up the courage to do so, the owner somehow saw me and came out and gave me an earful and said if he ever sees me by his dumpster again hes calling the cops, etc.... I said "Im not putting stuff in the dumpster man, Im taking stuff OUT of it so it doesnt go to the landfill and can get reused or recycled". Didnt matter, he just didnt want anyone in his dumpster for some reason.
