Dumpster Diving in New York City

Dumpster diving is the practice of sifting through commercial or residential waste to find items that have been discarded by their owners, but that may prove useful to the dumpster diver.

Dumpster divers will forage dumpsters for items such as clothing, furniture, food, and other items of the like deemed in good working conditions. (Credits)
