    Nice haul! Check your city/county website for trash pickup schedules (or if there is a private third-party company, check with them). I was surprised to find that every city that I run routes through had a very nicely detailed pickup schedule posted to their websites. I have them printed off and keep them in a folder in my van.




    For some reason, I really get a kick out of reading what kind of stuff we all find at the curbs. I guess it never ceases to amaze me what people throw away.
