Maybe…

Maybe I should start going to storage unit auctions. I watch those shows on TV where people buy storage units for cheap and up making a lot of money sometimes and other times the units are filled with worthless junk. There have been some units filled with boats, rifle scopes, rare coins, old baseball cards and other rare and expensive items. The people on that show sometimes make more than 3 times what they spent on the unit.

I saw one show where the unit was filled with nothing but trash and I think one guy bid on it and got it for something like $5.

Now that I think about it… I don’t think I’d make much money. I’d see people’s personal items, like pictures and papers, and try to return the stuff to them.

Trash

I have some trash to take out to the dumpster. In our little community here we have trash dumpsters and attached recycling bins. We don’t pay for our trash pickup. It’s part of the landlord’s association fees. I don’t mind taking the trash down the street to the dumpster.

People aren’t supposed to put things like furniture, home speakers, TV’s, etc in the dumpster or around it but they do and it sometimes makes it hard to get to the dumpster to put your trash in. They are supposed to call someone to come and haul things like that away and pay for it themselves.

There are townhouses across the street who have their own trash cans and recycling bins that they have to put out on trash day. I’ve seen them taking their trash down to our dumpsters at times. I guess their cans are full.
