Dumpster Diving at Apartments ~ wow they threw away SO much! 

I would like to see you and your husband do the 100 dumpster in a day again. I thought that was so cool!!!

We live in such as disposable society. Seeing all theses things you and others pull out of the trash hopefully helps others to stop and think before they throw things away.

Freeze the coffee it keeps it fresh - found this for you: Powders. Powder cosmetics, such as eyeshadows, are one of the easiest things to disinfect. First, take off the top layer of powder gently with a tissue, since that's where most of the grime will have collected. Then, give the whole thing a spray with rubbing alcohol, and set it out until it's dry.Jul 3, 2020 hope it helps

I support two shelters and two food pantries. It amazes me what people throw out. Good for you. Tina

you can clean the makeup palette by spraying rubbing alcohol on the shadows

GREAT FINDS!!! I put squishies, stuffed toys, delicate curtains, linens, etc. in an old pillowcase tied closed with a thick rubber band, and I toss it in the washer. This protects the items from getting snagged or beaten up in the wash cycles!!! LOVE to see you smiling!! 💗💗

I honestly think your videos put out a positive outlook on dumpster diving you do a wonderful job you put out a good videos and I enjoy watching them keep up the good work

to clean palettes spray some 70% isopropyl alcohol on it and let it dry. Done. You can fix broken palettes like this also. Crush the broken pieces to powder. Make a paste from the powder with some alcohol and a pop sickle stick, put it back in the palete and let dry. You can clean the edges with a coton stick and some alcohol.

I am moving into an apartment complex and they don’t have recycling and I am bummed over that. However I went dumpster diving for the first time in my life (55yrs) and found a great lamp. Always love seeing Pilgrim.

If that letter jacket has leather sleeves, I don't recommend washing it! Good to see your beautiful smile again!

I think the coffee should be fine for months. You can freeze the bags until you are ready to use them. It will keep it fresh.

Just got off work. This is perfect to relax to. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪

You should try going thru alleys in the rich part of denton...they throw away awesome stuff

That thing without the mirror may be a picture frame too. It's lovely. Good job!

The coffee is still good. It's just the brandmaker can't garantee the flavour/smell that the coffee they make is suposed to have after this date, but if they are still air tight closed you can make coffee with it and won't get sick or anything.

You have such a lovely attitude. I enjoy your channel and you give us inspiration.

That standing mirror is likely silver - take it to a precious metal recycle to see its worth. Or enjoy it for years to come - international mint items are def worth money.

🤣 the things you said look like condoms are finger cots. They're used if you cut your finger to keep the dressing clean.

I would have tossed the tree and kept that expensive tub. I think the bird feeder is really a fruit bowl for the table . But you could use it as anything you want to. You can put the coffee in the freezer.

I’m a “Coffee Freak” and that coffee is just fine!! I’d put it in the freezer to help keep it fresh. Great Haul!! So glad to see you smiling and diving!! ♥️💯✌️

So love your happy smile and upbeat attitude! Makes your videos so enjoyable to watch.

Don't "wash" the letterman's jacket! They're usually made out of wool and need to be dry-cleaned.😉

That metal circular piece with the handle is just indoor decor, but I imagine it could be used for birds. Also, check RU-vid videos on cleaning makeup pallets. Many spray rubbing alcohol on them to sanitize. Glad to see you fining some good stuff.

People buy i-phone boxes on eBay especially if they are resellers.

Coffee can be used YEARS after the best before date. Don't worry.

The silver mirror frame is absolutely beautiful love 💕 it good find 🌞

I freeze my coffee to make it last longer;)

[ 27;41 ]...THAT MIRROR/FRAME IS UNIQUE AND WELL HANDCRAFTED VERY COOL, NO SQUISHY LEFT BEHIND LOL. HUGS TO PILGY...PEACE.

I have one of those handled buckets! It's on a lazy Susan on the patio table for condiments and candles.

I just found your channel! I love your positive vibe and the way you donate things to people who could use them. You also have made me rethink the things I throw away. Thank you!

Lol those little condoms ate actually finger cots. They are use to protect you fingers or to protect. Products from finger prints, oils and skin cells. I used them when I worked for Sony making CD'S, PlayStation discs and DVD's

For a breafkist t-shirt..."I'll never leave a squishmallow behind"...🥰

One article I read online said you can freeze that coffee and it keeps it fresher for up to 1-3 years!

All those books in the dumpster were probably from someone who was hired to deliver them and rather than deliver them to multiple locations, decided to dump them then went back to work and said they "distributed" all of them but they didn't say they "distributed" them at the bottom of a couple of dumpsters. Not only did they not get recycled, they didn't get where they were supposed to go and the business who paid to have them printed might as well have thrown their money in that dumpster. Same thing.... what a shame.. smh...

Best thing to use on the sole of sneakers to clean them is Mr. clean eraser!! Glad to see you’re posting again. You can clean the make up palette’s with rubbing alcohol. It works perfectly to help sanitize everything. I put the broken pillars in my yard and use them as ruins.

Make sure to drill a few holes at the bottom of your new bird feeder. That way when it rains the water can drain out :)

it makes my day brighter when i click on your vids and see those smiles sweety..thanks for making this old aussie smile.

those shoes are so awesome! I hope Alex likes them!

You could find a pretty picture of flowers in a magazine for the frame.🍀🌺🌼🌷

iPhone boxes make great drawer organizers! They are so well made!

So good to see you smiling an having fun doing what you love to do.. You just inspire me in so many good ways. Thank You, Kelly 🌼✌🌼

Love ur videos hope u never stop making them!

I’ve seen the mirror as high as $223.00 and low as $75.00. What a beautiful find!

go back and check that big dumpster, those baskets can go out front of the little pantry so people can carry stuff home, or donated to the thrift store or even sold at a garage sale for $1 each. theycome in so darn handy. I enjoyed your post this week. I am glad you felt good enough to do it, it sure makes my day happy.

Pilgrim is so precious as always

Happy to see you back. Love your smile, makes your eyes crinkle. Not a bad haul.

Definitely put a mirror back in mirror. Gorgeous! Great find!

Those dumpsters are located at weird place,at apts.Right by road,w.the flys and stink.😸

Good morning! Have a fantastic Blessed Sunday!

Its great to see ya out dumpster diving again. Nice score! Keep smiling

So many cards! Bones is a sleepy boy 😊❤🥰

You are so sweet I enjoy your videos give pilgrim a hug for me. The spray paint galvanized tray with the handle is a condiment holder or a decor piece. But you can use it for a bird feeder. It's really up to you the birds will love it. Lots of Love Aunt Bee 🐜🐝🦋

You can use the yoga mat to make your own shoe inserts. Just use an old one as a pattern to cut new ones. You can get a lot of them out of a whole mat. The expired coffee can’t be any worse that what an old coworker used to do. We’d make coffee for the employees and the next morning if any was leftover, she’d heat it up I her mug and drink it 😝

I love how resourceful you are .... Saving the landfill, building a full life and paying it forward with the excess. Not just a win win but a win win win. Can you imagine if we all were so resourceful and generous! I throw shoes in the wash too! You go girl!

The coffee is perfectly safe and I seriously doubt it's even stale. The silver frame is stunning...would be great as mirror or frame for picture of loved one. Great finds today. 👏

Love your channel!! Your a ray of sunshine ❤

Hey Kelly I'm so happy you are back I've miss seeing your videos keep diving hon you are changing the world one dumpster an video and I think it will make a difference

Thanks for taking us diving with you! You found a lot of great things!💜💜💜

I got a upright Dyson Hoover and a bike, wooden shelve & metal frame storage shelves from the dumpster, I asked the home owner if the Hoover still works, she said that it was not picking up, I took it home & went on RU-vid page to find out how to unblock it, it had a 50p English money stuck in it, it works like new.

Breakfast take those I phone boxes. People buy those. Thanks for your videos. You always seem so positive.

I'm so glad you are still smiling ,and enjoy what you do 🥰

Use the missing mirror stand for chalk board. The tiny rubber tips were for your fingers when flipping through paper. You clean makeup pallets with alcohol. Wipe case plus each color with alcohol. It will dry. The metal stand is not a bird feeder. No way to drain. Can be used as a fruit bowl etc. Farmhouse decor. Can hold the coffee singles.

Lovely to see you smiling. I once to a box out of a dumpster (skip) in Leeds England. I opened it up and it had 5 dead kittens inside. I have never dumpster dived since.😪😪😪

Disinfect the shadows by removing the top layer(just gently scrape with fingernail) spritz with isopropyl alcohol and let it dry. Coffee kept in the freezer will last way way past its sell by date!! Great finds girly, good job saving things from the landfill!

For the silver piece it’d be super cute to paint with chalk paint and write little messages on it!

The mirror saying "mint" and being heavy it could be silver and VERY VALUABLE

The calculator might need to take a screwdriver scrap off the battery acid that leached then it probably will work i did that last week with a light up stand i found in the dumpster and some work and clean up and new batteries from the dumpster works great 👍 you found great useful things !

Awesome finds Kelly.You can use alcohol either spray it over the palettes or use can put alcohol on a rag and wipe over the palettes..if you find some that the eye shadow is all broken just mix a couple drops of alcohol in it and just pat it to reshape it same with blush..Enjoyed tagging along with you..Take care and hope Alex liked the shoes those were really nice..

Great haul. Nice seeing you happy n smiling again.

great stuff love the yoga mat and coffee u can keep coffee in freezer stays fresher longer

Been thinking about you…glad to see you happy and smiling!💜

Your bird feeder is a part of a tiered tray used for home decor. You can definitely repurpose it as a bird feeder!

Girl! Keep the makeup, spray down with 70% or higher rubbing alcohol, wipe plastic areas with sanitizing wipe allow to air dry! VERY SIMPLE! I get makeup from the kids at the college I work at and this has worked for me every time!

Yay I'm so excited that was a really good haul you haven't had one in quite a while. Fun to watch.

You always find awesome things ... You motivate me so much ... I usually go on Mondays and Fridays and find so many good things ... Thanks for the video 🐱

Great Haul. Use a lint roller to clean the back of the silver frame. Take the back off the silver frame. The Mirror finish spray could be used. You could have taken the artificial Christmas Tree out and had a big storage container. Great find on the shoes. The thrift store in our town uses a spray bottle with the 91% alcohol to sanitize clothes and all other fabric donations.

The floral items was a great score that stuff is so expensive!,

Alex is the big winner today!

Makes me happy to see you so cheerful, I hope you feel as good too. Great finds today

Great to see you again. And Pilgrim! That round met circular thing would be great to put your garden veggies in when picking. I showed my daughter the squishmallow and she said oh no why did someone do that. They don't belong on the ground. Lol

great video. Happy to see you smiling.

You look so cute today! I’ll never leave a squish thing behind….lol!

Awesome. So glad to see your video on today.

Cool haul! So good to see you again! ❤

Just an FYI but alot of people like myself buy old colored powdered makeup to use in coloring resin when doing jewelry making. Its alot cheaper then actually buying colored pigments for resin and works as well so I would pick it up next time to sell at yard sale.

Always love watching you save things from the landfills

Love you Kelly... Hope you feel better!

Wow great finds today good for you! Wuu huu!!!!

You could squeeze Silicone bathtub sealer into the holes of those boot soles and they'd probably be good for a lot more use..

OMG, I want a ‘No SQUISH-Mellows Left Behind’ t- shirt now!!!

Wow! What a score! Very cool.

Great finds. Yes I'd use. The coffee too. I bet the letter jacket was expensive. Love watching your videos.

Am glad ur feeling happier ☺ 💓

Hey looks like you are scoring today for sure! I bought a new makeup eye color palette new from the store & one of the color pots broke and spilled out by the time it made it home. Of course the prettiest one. I knew I could return but I decided to try to save it. I googled how to fix it and there are you tube videos on it. You carefully brush all the loose color back into the pot with a makeup brush...I already had a little spray bottle with alcohol in it due to Covid and turns out it worked great for this...you spray the loose powder with the alcohol...not a lot, just a little -this is the hard part as have to do it so gently, then press it down into the pot with the back of a spoon. I brushed some loose powder back in, sprayed it once more, cleaned spoon off, pressed it down again. It worked pretty good. I was all proud of my self LOL. So that is how you can fix loose eye makeup...search you tube too. You can use the alcohol sprayer (I just bought a tiny spray bottle and put 70% alcohol in it) to sanitize other make up too. Spray on brushes then wipe the brushes on paper towels, repeat until clean. Yes, anything plastic, records, cds, makeup, maybe keep in shade...its hot here in Seattle today 7pm still over 100 degrees! Love that standing frame. Yes probably had a mirror in it. If you cannot do yourself (you can buy replacement mirrors at walmart for $6), you can probably take to a glass shop & have them replace or just cut the mirror to fit. I would call a couple and get quotes. I had to replace a bathroom sliding window once and quotes ranged from $150 to $30. I took the window to the place for $30 LOL. They instructed me how to get it out, then just took it it in, they cut and put it in frame while I was waiting. Then took home and popped it back in place, save me $120. Good luck!

I ALWAYS love watching you dumpster dive. I'm so glad to see your smile! You make me feel happy 😁

Amazing finds! Love the cherubin miroir! Have a great week! Sending you, all my love! 😘

The "mirror" looks like it's pewter chalkboard. For sanitizing eyeshadows, you'll need isopropyl alcohol and tissues. Sanitize eyeshadow by scraping off its very top layer with a tissue. You can do this by quickly rubbing the surface until it brushes off. After you've skimmed the top off, spritz the product with a little bit of rubbing alcohol and then let it dry. This method can be used for all powder makeup items.

so glad to see you out and about.

I hope you are feeling better 💓! Some nice finds.

Awesome finds! The dumpsters at my apartment usually have some really neat furniture that seems like it just needs a little love. Like an entire WOODEN children's table and 4 chair set... crazy stuff. But by the end of the day it's dived out and gone. Artists can use those eyeshadow pallets- they are just like art pastels if they aren't too cheaply made. I use them a lot because of the variety of shimmery colors and it's a whole lot cheaper to buy than art pastels.
