    I second everything cunningham just said. It's crazy competitive at curbco near me and I happily take the odd looks and evil eyes from people in exchange for that one person that's still putting stuff out or talking to their neighbour and says "do you want more?" "Yes, sir/maam, can I give you a card in case you have something else later on?" Almost always doubles what I found initially.

    I have also had people sit waiting in there garage (usually mechanics) after putting out a bin of treasures; they see me stop and call "I have more up here". I do the lifting and they get rid of their stuff WIN WIN. I actually have a repeat client now from this. He does brakes in his spare time and calls me when he has a dozen or more. Just lined up another guy who does it less often but still said he would call.

    It never hurts to be friendly and ask a question or two...
