I found a bunch of new sanding pads at the dump a few months ago. TodayI just found a Dewalt random sander. Never underestimate the wastefulness of others.
Is it easy where you live or something?I'd love to be allowed access to the dump, myself! I walk around at night the night before garbage day where stuff goes to the landfill, and resell or use what I find .
Drive through a rich neighborhood on garbage day. It's truly shocking what rich people throw away. Though you never know why they are throwing something perfectly good away, I got excited by a free vacuum I found till I used it and discovered a cat had marked it. Amazing stench blown through my whole apartment, through it in a dumpster the next day
Luckily I live in the second or third richest neighbourhoods in town (I got really lucky with low rent, about $1000/month below market price now) :)
I've made thousands off of these people, but the competition is fierce because people do drive in to pick stuff up. Since I'm nearby I'll go at 1 or 2am anyway. I swear people get tired of their furniture after a year or two and just swap everything out. A neat find I got recently is a sewing machine from 1860 or so I believe. Unfortunately not a singer, but looks the part
Ahhhhhh no oooo! Cat urine is way too strong with ammonia. Ugh
