Carter Stevens started reselling discarded items from dumpsters around Nashville, Tennessee, in March 2024. Months earlier, he'd been living in his car.
My dad does this and he got money. You be surprised what people will just throw away. Hell my sister lives in well off neighborhood. The amount of shit these people will put to the crub is crazy. Like my sister got all her tv free due to people getting new ones after year.
I had a job clearing out houses and apartments of people who had to move to a care home, or just died.
So many things are thrown away or donated in the aftermath and rush to clear out space. A lot of folks out there without family or kids but with stuff. Or sometimes it’s an estranged grandkid who flies in, signs something, and wholesale waves everything off to the dump before leaving.
Its disheartening what folks throw away. Works out for these folks I guess though…
I about have a panic attack when I have a can of beans (or whatever) and I take the label off and rinse to recycle it and I have the thought this has been done billions of times since at least the 1940s. How the hell do we still have cans. Now imagine the level of waste for everything else it really is insanity if you think of it.
Like I maybe fill 1 trash bag every 3 or 4 days. There are people filling multiple per day
I’m surprised society hasnt crumbled into a trash heap 30 years ago really.
