    Thanks! I have one contact who is the maintenance chief at an apartment complex. Every few days I get a call/text from him letting me know there is material. Most of the time there is a load of things, but there have been a few times where I travel 30 miles round trip just to end up with 1 or 2 items. I dont want to tell him to F*** O** with the smaller loads, but it would be nice if it was worth my time. Im thinking this bin could be that solution. Instead of having to call me all the time I can either just have him throw me a text when the bin is full, or just make it part of my rounds every week or so.

    Also, If I left them at a business it would be indoors most likely in the trash room. Same room with the dumpster and recycling in it.

    you could maybe fix a lid on it that locks and the apartment guy could have a key, that way nobody else would get it after its put in for you. Nice score!!
