    What exactly to you folks mean?

    :confused:I have read on alot of posts that you guys pick up stuff at night. Are you getting this stuff on trash night or do you have an evening route. Just wondering if I should be finding out when the closest citys collect trash.

    I for one am a trash night scavenger. I do this part time as a hobby to make a little extra cash to pay for kids sports and stuff.

    Yes, that is mostly what it means. Driving around on garbage night/evening/morning.

    In our general neighborhood, if someone has something that they don't need no more or has something scrap, they just set it out by the road with a free sign. The other day I picked up a small gas grill and some steel gas pipe with brass fittings. Just more "gravy" for my piles.
    I still have my sign out advertising for batteries and some guy just dropped off a couple and didn't even want paid for them. Cha-ching
