I remember putting a leather recliner out at the curb for someone to help themselves to. It sat there for 2 days. So I brought it back to the house under the car port. Someone stole it the next day. 😂
One time, when I was a teenager, I followed two middle-aged women who had made a mess of my neighbor's trash. I told them to get back there and clean it up! And they did! If I tried that today I'd probably get shot.
Same here in the Philippines. I'm already living in the village and seems the village guard doesn't mind at all every time I complaint. It's okay for them to pick our junks but PLEASE do not leave a mess. grrr! And here in the Philippines, when there is a mess out of garbage bag, garbage man don't picked it up. grrr!
One time my neighbor was throwing out a great drum set around Christmas time. I thought of selling it, but it’s a bulky item and hard to store. I put it free on Craigslist at 10pm that night and some viewer guy went ballistic! He said he works at night and needed to buy his boy a set of drums cause his kid loved his dad’s drums so much. He came right away and got them. He told me his jaw dropped when he saw the quality and condition! Sometimes it’s fun playing Santa, even if u don’t get paid for it! Those memories will be life long for that price!! 🤣🤣
When I lived in Utah I gained the title of RCGennell's. Why? Neighbor was tossing a Dinette set that needed a wash cloth and a little repair on one chair. I said hey leave it in my driveway not the dump. His wife went ballistic when she heard I never touched, took a pic, posted on let go and sold it for 40.00. She banned him from tossing stuff out 😆 🤣 😂
I saw a video online that people are leaving canned goods and extra cleaning supplies on shelves. The shelves are in a utility area of an apartment building.
I live in a wealthy neighborhood and I find it incredibly hard to give away things, even in our Facebook group. It was much easier when I lived in a middle-class neighborhood. There are a few things at play in this current neighborhood: ° Everyone already has what they need. I've noticed most of the families here are (1) now mostly in the phase of decluttering/minimizing/simplifying, (2) participating in very specific hobbies/activities different from their neighbors so they don't all want the same things, or (3) are into experiences/travel as opposed to buying and owning more things. ° Our neighborhood has an HOA that does not allow leaving garbage cans or items outside except for trash day, so leaving things out for free doesn't happen. We also don't get tons of drive through traffic because of the next point. ° Our community is on a mountain top about 2000 feet in elevation above the surrounding area. A lot of charities will not come up here to pick up donations (it got worse after Covid restrictions). All that being said, a lot of us do take things down to the nearest charity. But I know that sometimes people have a lot going on in their families we may not be aware of and they are just focused on getting things out of their house quickly to create order or they are changing phases in life (kids growing up, empty nesting, making space to take care of aging parent or spouse, retiring, etc). Anyhoo, just thought that might give some insight as to why sometimes people throw away "good things"!
@@bethfromchicago8719 I teach in a special needs inner city school. Most of my students have emotional / behavioral problems and we are the last stop before juvie and/or prison. We have found having a shelf with food, clothing, hygiene products, etc., has made a huge difference in how the kids feel about themselves, a sense of peace knowing they will have dinner that night, and clean cloths so their classmates don’t give them crap for smelling. Kindness goes a very long way! ❤️
@@alishathehistorynerd9726 that's good.....fruit and grain bars are indivually wrapped and can be kept in a back pack. Stick mennen deodorant is a dollar at dollar tree....I am sure they would appreciate those.
What a blessed life. Doing better than 90% of the resellers on UA-cam and not paying a dime for what you get. I'd be careful about leaving your truck running like that though unless you have OnStar or a tracking device.
People just have too much stuff. When I think of all the people going without these days, this makes me want to puke. Entertaining,but still saddens me. Be safe out there!
@@TexanPicker sad to think how some of these resellers do storage spaces as is a reflection of life and what happens when you die.. is sad but at least hopefully the stuff gets recycled to a new home instead of in the bin as would be the case otherwise..
Looks like you had a good run. My paternal Grandfather would be proud of you. He called it, Junking. Wealthy junking kept his family going for over 20 years. 😉
Thanks, I’ve been doing this for 9 years. It’s definitely opened doors to so many things. I now sell on Facebook, eBay, I have an antique booth and this UA-cam channel. It’s paid off and I actually really enjoy doing this.
It's great to see that people are taking these items and giving them a second life. Shame that people don't think about donating as we all need to be thinking about recycling and reusing the items we buy. Did my eyes see a gun on the front seat? 😳 I can't see any comments on it so I'm assuming it's normal practice where you are? I live in Ireland so for me it's a strange thing to see.
Hey you grab what you grab. I'm as intrigued by watching you and seeing what people throw out. Who in the world could figure out what to do with everything anyways. You rock.
@@TexanPicker just make sure if your gonna test it that the volumes are turned all the way down... Don't wanna be waking the whole neighbourhood up lol
Take what you want. These people are not you nor have they had your experience... your supporting your family not theirs. Great finds ! Keep on keepin on!
You need a ritzy neighborhood to find nice trash like this. I don't see trash this nice, around me like its usually garbage. A friend of mine once found a glass lamp in the trash in a wealthy neighborhood. He took it home, all that was wrong with it the plug was broken, so he fixed it. Found out the lamp was worth over $200. That was back in the '80s. He and his wife kept the lamp.
True experience, trash day, I see 3 small chrome an glass nesting tables, snag them. At home verify they’re authentic designed by a well known mid century mod designer, checked on line through high end auction houses going for $1,500 and up. Put a local ad out at for half and accepted a very fair offer, sold them! I’d of kept them, but I have enough “stuff”. Hands down my best pick ever!
So glad you’re cool about it. Less going to the landfill because of these guys! We always put our goods - even the smaller stuff onto the curb or right on top of the garbage cans so they find it quickly ✅👌💯
I remember when I was living in Dallas Texas my daughter and I would drive the streets and pick up some nice things but be careful I picked up some nice clothes blankets and stuff like that not thinking anything about it brought the stuff in my home separating stuff so I could wash it too find out that crap had bedbugs oh my God I threw away my new bed I just bought and my dressers everything I threw it all away and never got stuff again gotta watch what your bringing in even In your car if you bring bedbugs in your car the bugs attach themselves too your clothing and you take them home
I found a pachinko machine a few doors down from me last year. Brought it home cleaned it up and sold it on marketplace for 50.00. Heavy little bugger.
Absolutely Fantastic haul Juan!! Very exciting, I just loved the pin ball machine and the squirrel, Excellent finds, had a great time watching the one and only Texan Picker! Your just awesome!! This video rocked !!!
I like the 'warning' on "get your snacks ready", as it was a great haul. As always, you have a full truck! I know someone's little girl will like the Minnie/Frozen desks.
@@TexanPicker what happened to the Clint Eastwood signed photo I would love that when I was a little boy I wanted to be Clint Eastwood I love those Spaghetti Westerns Good the Bad and the Ugly Fistful of Dollars a few dollars more and Two Mules for Sister Sara excellent
Good stuff! My favorite is the pachinko machine. My Mother in law had one in her basement when I first met her and that was the 70's. She has passed away but my Ex husband lives there and I think the pachinko is still there.
Bed bath and beyond used to be my favorite place to go... Now they have compactor or locked bens. It's crazy the new stuff they throw away. If someone returns it...they cant put it back on the shelf... They have to throw it away. I think that is crazy.
Glad you not over charging for items that was once garbage. Most donation that go to the drift store over price, and that why they dont have quick turn arounds.
Occasionally, people dump their trash on "my sidewalk." One day they left a bunch of stuff. I became overwhelmed, so what I did is that I kept some of the things (a bunch of little toys and some Christmas decorations). I threw away the "biodegradable trash" (food, etc.). It was really messy. I left the two vacuum cleaners, which I put together (because they were dismantled), there... and an easy chair, which was left upside down. "I fixed everything to look neat, side by side to each other." The next day, to my surprise, "everything was gone !!!" Somebody actually picked up both vacuums and the armchair after I organized everything on the sidewalk. LOL
ps: that pachenko game is a RARE score! even if it's broken , it's very valuable! they are the 'slot machines' of many oriental countries, in that they are pretty much outlawed because of people betting on the outcomes of the game.
I still say, I like how you pake the stuff in the truck. You know how to get her done!!! I watch another guy that picks & he often gets # of comments on how her needs help in learning how to put stuff in his big long bed van. Some times it's nerve rakeing just watching. Also, I like your attitude. So, was wondering if you ever got stuck, from going thru trash cans & bags; when theres this big knive in the trash can your diging thru, EEKS!!! Do take care. (FL.)
Haha I know who you’re talking about! Taco Stacks.. he doesn’t care, he’s more into scrapping than the reselling 😁👌💯💯✅. Still entertaining & relaxing to watch but yah a few tubs in that van would help him out 😅
My husband and I used to do this. Loved it. We would take stuff to the Flea Market. Need to turn it around right away. If you don't you run the risk of wanting to keep it.
Car stereos after Xmas used to be plentiful I had tons but these days all factory stuff. When I was in sanitation you new when electronics was good because rich neighborhoods cut cords off all them so they didn't work. Just had replace the cords. That's rich ppl for ya.
Thank you for saving the Radio Shack hookup wire. That is a holy relic from a bygone age. Lord I miss Radio Shack, America is just that the same without a local Radio Shack store in every town.
I put out a stove and a glass top coffee table where the glass had been broken. No sooner did we walk in the house and a young pregnant woman came to the door asking if they could have the stuff. They lost everything to a fire.( there was a big apartment fire just days before) my sister and I pulled it back from the curb, they had to go get a truck. By the time they got back we had cleaned the stove up and I found the books that went with it. My neighbor cut a piece of plywood for the top of the table. Then on top of the stove we all put extra bedding and can goods for them to take.
A couple of years ago I found a round antique table with dolphin-face legs. It was painted white and chipped and the previous owner had painted the top a weird lavender. The paint was ghastly but I liked the table. It sat in my garage for about 3 years, then I decided it would make a nice little table by the front door to hold mail. I went to Home Depot and bought 2 sample-size mixed jars of paint (you're supposed to paint it on your wall to see if you like it but I do other things); one was sort of an ochre and the other was cream. I used the ochre for the base and the cream for the top; I also painted to sides of the top so that it looks like a different piece on top of it. I mixed it with a powder compound first that eliminates the need for sanding; I just hosed it off outside. The compound and the 2 sample jars came to $15. I then went to a glass place and had a piece of glass cut for the top, then I bought an adult coloring book with flowers. I found a pattern I liked and took it to Staples to have it enlarged and shrunk on different pieces of paper because I wasn't sure how I wanted it to look, then I cut everything apart and arranged them in a pattern I liked; leaves and flowers, and taped everything to one side, then flipped it over. I used Tri-Chem liquid silver pen to trace the outlines of everything (otherwise it would have just looked like blobs of color) and bought some textile paints at Michael's with some very skinny-tipped brushes. (I already had some on hand so I didn't have to buy everything.) I did this over a 3-week period to make use of their coupons that come out routinely. When my project was finished, I took off all the taped papers and flipped it over, so that the paint itself is on the table and the glass is on the top. I think the textile paints cost me maybe $20 total. I now have a table that looks like I spent a fortune for it.
Just found your channel and it's very impressive. Just to let you know that patchinko machine if you still have it it's collectible item and may bring you few hundred dollars if not thousands. You'll be surprised. Good luck
I just subscribe to your videos and I'm addicted!! I'm having a blast! You seem like a nice guy. Its incredible the things you find in your videos. major thumbs up to ya! Hey, I used to work with this lady who her brother-in-law was a garbage man in one of the super, super old money wealthy areas Hillsborough in northern California. People would throw out stuff like, a complete set of high end antique china, a box of jewels were found, over 100 year old Victorian German and French dolls , on and on. The guy and his wife furnished their whole home over the years with the stuff he came across. beautiful very high end furniture and antiques. BTW, driving in the evening like that be sure to stay safe!
Dang! What amazing finds in trash! Friken love it! Makes me sick they couldn't just went to donate it. I've never and never will idc how much money I have I will take my time to donate or just find someone who wants it rather than fill landfields! That's one thing that should be illegal to throw working usable items away. Looking in big corps dumsprts and see food and everyday items is sickening as well. I'm a diver and I absolutely love it!
At some point in life, it can get overwhelming & besides rich people don't have time for that. BUT he may surpass them someday, his truck &house are pretty nice, too ; )
If I went during the day a lot of this stuff would already. I’m not the only picker out here that goes at night and there Steven more pickers and scrappers that come by in the morning. Not only that, the trash in these neighborhoods usually gets picked up early in the morning. It’s a lose lose situation. I know what I’m doing, just sit back and enjoy.
6:59 Bro that’s literally the printer we use at my job! It’s hella expensive, it can print anything you want from puzzles ,canvass and posters. That’s crazy that someone would throw that away, like it’s easily a 2,000$ printer.
That huge printer is actually a plotter, used for printing maps and such. I work for oil & gas, those suckers are EXPENSIVE but huge! The Melisa & Doug toys can be resold for a decent amount.
Hey bro that is an awesome sign especially in rich neighborhood wow I didn't know which people get rid of their stuff and throw it away that's crazy but at least you found it you can sell it have have a wonderful night and be very safe to and I enjoy watching your video very much thank you for sharing sincerely suszie
Go gett’em cowboy! You find the neatest stuff! Love that we get to see what you find. I’m looking over the items like I’m gonna get it! 😆 lol. Love it when you find “Louie” And other high dollar bags 🤑. These rich people throw out more than some of us less fortunate have in a life time. Thank you 😊 for thinking of always taking merchandise to the homeless,churches and Good Will Stores. With our world turned upside down and constantly changing, bless you for thinking of others…. Love your truck …and your 🎶 music 🎼 .
I never take TVs but I just got one then went back for the awesome tall tv stand with glass front doors at the bottom. Get home tv works, no remote but too big for the stand. Nice size tv too!
Ummmmm, yeah, you really want to look up the ostrich Beenie baby! From what I just saw they don’t make that one anymore. It’s a retired figure. The low figure was $720.00
You’re so great that you always tie the bags back up. I’d appreciate that. We have a neighborhood chihuahua that gets into trash cans. That dog is always loose. You should’ve kept those thermoses.
this is better than watching a movie.
Thank you! That’s a great compliment
Oh yea fer sure
Kinda makes me jealous that I cant go do it too!!

I still say, I like how you pake the stuff in the truck. You know how to get her done!!! I watch another guy that picks & he often gets # of comments on how her needs help in learning how to put stuff in his big long bed van. Some times it's nerve rakeing just watching. Also, I like your attitude. So, was wondering if you ever got stuck, from going thru trash cans & bags; when theres this big knive in the trash can your diging thru, EEKS!!! Do take care. (FL.)
Funny you say that because I will get a few comments every now and then from people telling me that I don’t know what I’m doing ! LOL, oh well
Haha I know who you’re talking about! Taco Stacks.. he doesn’t care, he’s more into scrapping than the reselling 😁👌💯💯✅. Still entertaining & relaxing to watch but yah a few tubs in that van would help him out 😅
My husband and I used to do this. Loved it. We would take stuff to the Flea Market. Need to turn it around right away. If you don't you run the risk of wanting to keep it.
Car stereos after Xmas used to be plentiful I had tons but these days all factory stuff. When I was in sanitation you new when electronics was good because rich neighborhoods cut cords off all them so they didn't work. Just had replace the cords. That's rich ppl for ya.
No they would cut the cords to sell the wire dude!
Great finds I’m glad your keeping things out of land fills
Thanks for saving filling the garbage dumps!
Bed bugs are so bad in my area there's no way I would pick up anything from the trash in my neighborhood.
I agree they're bad all over U.S.
Yes they are. U gotta be careful and those little terrorists are hard to get rid of. They can torment the hell outta u.
The Master Meter , my hubby worked with the owners. Not for them but he bought meters for the water company that he worked for a city water.
I’d be checking some of that old furniture for false compartments in the 70s and 80s it was really common
Right, me too
Thank you for saving the Radio Shack hookup wire. That is a holy relic from a bygone age. Lord I miss Radio Shack, America is just that the same without a local Radio Shack store in every town.
Mann.. I miss it too, if i ever open up shop.. It will be "Radio Shack" best business name ever
I love doing curbside!! You just never know what you can find 🐱😻💜💙❤️🐈🐱
So many thing they throw that is still useful
I put out a stove and a glass top coffee table where the glass had been broken. No sooner did we walk in the house and a young pregnant woman came to the door asking if they could have the stuff. They lost everything to a fire.( there was a big apartment fire just days before) my sister and I pulled it back from the curb, they had to go get a truck. By the time they got back we had cleaned the stove up and I found the books that went with it. My neighbor cut a piece of plywood for the top of the table. Then on top of the stove we all put extra bedding and can goods for them to take.
Instead of sitting to watch tv at nights you go out, how productive!!
A couple of years ago I found a round antique table with dolphin-face legs. It was painted white and chipped and the previous owner had painted the top a weird lavender. The paint was ghastly but I liked the table. It sat in my garage for about 3 years, then I decided it would make a nice little table by the front door to hold mail. I went to Home Depot and bought 2 sample-size mixed jars of paint (you're supposed to paint it on your wall to see if you like it but I do other things); one was sort of an ochre and the other was cream. I used the ochre for the base and the cream for the top; I also painted to sides of the top so that it looks like a different piece on top of it. I mixed it with a powder compound first that eliminates the need for sanding; I just hosed it off outside. The compound and the 2 sample jars came to $15. I then went to a glass place and had a piece of glass cut for the top, then I bought an adult coloring book with flowers. I found a pattern I liked and took it to Staples to have it enlarged and shrunk on different pieces of paper because I wasn't sure how I wanted it to look, then I cut everything apart and arranged them in a pattern I liked; leaves and flowers, and taped everything to one side, then flipped it over. I used Tri-Chem liquid silver pen to trace the outlines of everything (otherwise it would have just looked like blobs of color) and bought some textile paints at Michael's with some very skinny-tipped brushes. (I already had some on hand so I didn't have to buy everything.) I did this over a 3-week period to make use of their coupons that come out routinely. When my project was finished, I took off all the taped papers and flipped it over, so that the paint itself is on the table and the glass is on the top. I think the textile paints cost me maybe $20 total. I now have a table that looks like I spent a fortune for it.
Very cool
Hey you can't leave Clint Eastwood! That's from the movie Hang'em High!
I wonder if the signature on it is real...
Makes me wish I was still on the trash truck found all kinds of stuff love it
Just found your channel and it's very impressive. Just to let you know that patchinko machine if you still have it it's collectible item and may bring you few hundred dollars if not thousands. You'll be surprised. Good luck
Thank you
I appreciate that
I just subscribe to your videos and I'm addicted!! I'm having a blast! You seem like a nice guy. Its incredible the things you find in your videos. major thumbs up to ya! Hey, I used to work with this lady who her brother-in-law was a garbage man in one of the super, super old money wealthy areas Hillsborough in northern California. People would throw out stuff like, a complete set of high end antique china, a box of jewels were found, over 100 year old Victorian German and French dolls , on and on. The guy and his wife furnished their whole home over the years with the stuff he came across. beautiful very high end furniture and antiques. BTW, driving in the evening like that be sure to stay safe!
Hi thank you for subscribing! Yes people throw out the craziest things! I to have lie of decor in my house that I found. Thanks for watching!!!
Dang! What amazing finds in trash! Friken love it! Makes me sick they couldn't just went to donate it. I've never and never will idc how much money I have I will take my time to donate or just find someone who wants it rather than fill landfields! That's one thing that should be illegal to throw working usable items away. Looking in big corps dumsprts and see food and everyday items is sickening as well. I'm a diver and I absolutely love it!
I appreciate it. Yeah, it’s crazy the stuff I find. Can’t imagine what else gets thrown out that I can’t get to
Great finds! I love seeing everything saved from the trash
The pachinko game was a sweet score!
wish i lived there to so i could do this trash picking with you , love this kinda thing
Its straight up sickening to see all this good stuff people throw away instead of donating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes I agree! I think some people don't have means to haul it to donation or pure laziness
At some point in life, it can get overwhelming & besides rich people don't have time for that.
BUT he may surpass them someday, his truck &house are pretty nice, too ; )
Nice haul! Thank you for taking us along. ✌
Thanks 🙏🏽
7:10 is a printer for floor plans seems that the previous owner might me an architect of sorts
I was like...what! He's leaving the Clint Eastwood picture!? Like it's any of my business! Thanks for the show!
I took it.
These videos should be done during daytime
If I went during the day a lot of this stuff would already. I’m not the only picker out here that goes at night and there Steven more pickers and scrappers that come by in the morning. Not only that, the trash in these neighborhoods usually gets picked up early in the morning. It’s a lose lose situation. I know what I’m doing, just sit back and enjoy.
6:59 Bro that’s literally the printer we use at my job! It’s hella expensive, it can print anything you want from puzzles ,canvass and posters. That’s crazy that someone would throw that away, like it’s easily a 2,000$ printer.
Yeah I learned that one the hard way. I must say that it was really heavy so I was gonna have a hard time getting that in to the truck
I love to watch this dumpster diving sir
Did you get the Clint picture hope you didnt leave Eastwood behind lol. Have a great day!
I got him, don’t worry
That huge printer is actually a plotter, used for printing maps and such. I work for oil & gas, those suckers are EXPENSIVE but huge! The Melisa & Doug toys can be resold for a decent amount.
Hey bro that is an awesome sign especially in rich neighborhood wow I didn't know which people get rid of their stuff and throw it away that's crazy but at least you found it you can sell it have have a wonderful night and be very safe to and I enjoy watching your video very much thank you for sharing sincerely suszie
Thanks Susie

Thanks Donna
The music box/car!! I collect those! ❤❤❤
That sucker sold quick at my booth
Go gett’em cowboy! You find the neatest stuff! Love that we get to see what you find. I’m looking over the items like I’m gonna get it! 😆 lol. Love it when you find “Louie”
And other high dollar bags 🤑. These rich people throw out more than some of us less fortunate have in a life time. Thank you 😊 for thinking of always taking merchandise to the homeless,churches and Good Will Stores. With our world turned upside down and constantly changing, bless you for thinking of others…. Love your truck …and your 🎶 music 🎼 .
Thank you so much
I never take TVs but I just got one then went back for the awesome tall tv stand with glass front doors at the bottom. Get home tv works, no remote but too big for the stand. Nice size tv too!
I love your channel and also your prayers
Thank you
Ummmmm, yeah, you really want to look up the ostrich Beenie baby! From what I just saw they don’t make that one anymore. It’s a retired figure. The low figure was $720.00
