    A great assortment of items you picked up Taco! Those types of oil paintings sell well for me, people just love them...I was sitting at the drive thru pharmacy yesterday, and watched a man drive up across the street to a dumpster. He unloaded about 20 zerox boxes and just left, didn't even put them in the dumpster. I just had to go see what was in them, and they were full of everything! Antiques, glassware, vintage fabrics, about 5 boxes of DVD's unopened, and the list goes on! I took it all! That will never happen again! Always love your video's! 175 subs and climbing! Congrats! 😄🌮🐈

    I had SO many thoughts watching the video:
    1. While you were struggling with the file cabinet, I was thinking, remove the drawers. Make it easier on yourself. Glad to know you heard me through the intertubes. 😜
    2. My first thought was not, what’s the scrap value of the beer cans, but DAMN college kids drink way too much.
    3. That furniture may have been cheaply made in China or Taiwan but it looked to be in good condition. Who puts all that out and calls it garbage? They could have called the Salvation Army or another charity with a truck to come pick it up. Someone else who needs it could get some use out of that furniture.
    4. Thanks for keeping the packing peanuts out the landfill. Packing peanuts are usually made of styrofoam, and styrofoam takes forever to disintegrate.
    You and Salsa have a great weekend!

    A hint for College move-outs, always check the laundry detergent bottles. Frequently have a good amount of detergent left in them.

  • @maggiecousineau1877

    I am shocked a the lack of recycling in these small towns, so sad that most of it will end up in landfill.

    • @kenyonbissett3512
      @kenyonbissett3512 5 років тому +1

      There is no public trash pickup where I live. 95% of our county has no pickup. You drive to the dump. Not sure about now, but a few years ago we had the the highest recycling rate in Maryland. The county sent notices and posts at each dump area that to save on future increases in taxes we needed to recycle. That’s all it took, lol. It’s habit now for many

    • @maggiecousineau1877
      @maggiecousineau1877 5 років тому +3

      Where we live every house has recycling containers, one is for paper and cardboard, the other is for bottles and cans. We are only allowed 2 garbage bags of garbage a week. When I see the streets full of items that can be recycled it is shocking. Thank goodness for people like Taco Stacks that recycles and repurposes as much as possible.

  • @booper343

I like listening to you talk while you are trash picking.Thank you for caring about our environment. You have been taught well by your parents. Keep living the dream. Peace. . .

    Chiwan? Too funny! Someone who goes to the Renaissance Faire will certainly buy that shield. I can't understand why someone would put a sewing machine and cabinet out for trash. Thrift stores and certain ministries take them. I cringe at some of items that people pitch. Great score on this video!!!!

    Good picks today Taco. The university trash and waste is real. I witnessed it every year at IU Bloomington. Some non-profits were able to get first dibs on items before they hit the curb such as refrigerators, microwaves, coffee pots, TV's,..... still a lot left for pickers and the refuse haulers.

    I noticed you have been having 'some' trouble with allergies. A good, easy home remedy is to take a teaspoonful of honey that was 'made' within 100 mile radius of where you live. The pollen used by the bees will be 'local' to your area and will help your body build up an immunity to the allergen that give you problems. I thoroughly enjoy your channel. My 2 favorites are trash picking and storage cleanups. ;-)

    good afternoon Taco. Great finds. Here you get a refund of a nickel for every can. At the grocery store, they have some vending machine, you just push the can inside and it is automaticaly crushed.When you are done, there is a ticket that comes out with the amount that you are own. You just cash it with a cashier. Mind you, you might have the same machine in the States. Have a good one. Peace.

  • @donnajackson8
    @donnajackson8 5 років тому +2

    I'm campaigning that you take an older person with you when you go trash picking. You tossed the vintage camper to the side and you picked up an album rack. And you didn't know what it was. You might get some money for it because that's vintage too. I'm also campaigning that you get a ramp and a hand truck. Take it from an old lady who is suffering with back issues! I love your videos. Hugs to the beautiful miss Salsa!

    We have to pay a deposit on our bottles and cans here in Maine, but we can return them and get the 5 cents back. Interesting to see other people just throw them out. You guys must not do the deposit thing in PA? College towns. I never seem to make it there but looks like I should make more effort! Sweet finds! Love the shield. Have a good weekend!

I hope you’re feeling much better and I think you’re doing a great job. definitely decided I will never buy one of those aluminum gas grills because they don’t look like they last very long. I really like that sketch you got from someone getting it from the action I would just be curious to know a little bit more about it or who it’s by. I enjoy it as always the great weekend. ~ Texas

    When he stopped to pick up that Shield and those three bags full of empty beer cans man I would have said to heck with looking for stuff to resell or scarp and just focus on all the empties that would have been left behind like that one stop was a gold mine in cash and I live in Canada were it's 10¢ and up for everything in those two big blue cans heck I use to be able to bring in almost $100 in Canadian money on just one night of trash picking for empty beer cans, and liquor bottles

    I know the cans smell, but I enjoyed each time I heard them crunch. Lol
