What Gets Thrown In The Trash When School Lets Out?? CHECK IT OUT! 

I dont care if these are old i just like watching you and here your giggles and how you get so excited

Remember, Goodwill is NOT an organization that helps people, it is strictly profit driven and much of the donations it gets it throws out. Donate to a women's shelter or thrift stores that the profit goes to a local food bank. Thanks for sharing.

I agree 100% Staci. Rude to throw away a gift a child gave. And all that stuff could be donated to day cares, pre-schools and hospitals! Good grief. Y'all stay safe and keep it up!

those school books are worth a lot to home schoolers believe me

All those work books you could sell for 1.00 each at a yard sale. People love things like that for their kids. Great haul keep up the good work.

That is our hard earned tax dollars at work....in the dang trash. Makes me angry. Thank you guys for saving what you could!!!

If they are plastic folders nail polish remover will take marker off. Magic eraser will take off crayon. 😁

For notebooks & binders that have names or writing on the outside your kids could use stickers, markers to cover them up or use them @ home. Glad you guys found a good place to live, you all seem happier -

I volunteer at a local elementary school, and have a few insights here. The stuff is thrown away in bulk like that because schools often dump one program/curriculum for a newer one. I have helped wheel out carts full of "outdated" reading and math comprehension, and learning materials. It is wasteful, and expensive ! The markers and crayons are generally trashed by the end of the year, the teacher I work with donates hers to the afterschool program, or the art class, we never throw those out. You are not very likely to find a computer, at least where I am(I have installed, and uninstalled quite a few). The schools will lot up the old computers and send them as well as good furniture, and materials to a centralized resource warehouse that redistributes, or let`s be honest, probably tosses out behind closed doors these assets. At "my school" teachers leave unwanted cool stuff in the hallway or front lobby, and the pickin is pretty good. I haven`t bought copy paper for a good 10 years!

Be safe out there. Stacy is correct. The teachers ask for these supplies every year, and this how they do the supplies. Shameful. The school must be getting in new books for next semester.

I just watched your video on what you found in school dumpsters. It hurts my heart to see it. As a former teacher knowing some schools don't have enough books to go around then to see how many they tossed terrible. Why don't they donate them to the schools and children who need them so much! Keep exploring the waist and misuse of taxpayer money!❤ 😊

Dude! Don't think you noticed the bag you threw to the side after looking at that short bolt with the square washer had a crap ton of markers in it too.

School's always complain that they don't have enough stuff to teach the kid's an yeat school's like them throughout all that what a shame

Also around Christmas and such toys and clothes bedding and so on could help a family give their children gifts. All year covers Birthdays as well..❤❤❤

You should have kept all of the books & donated them. Kids like to doodle in them. Great finds. I find it so hard to believe that schools order that much then throw it away. At least, recycle the stuff. You 2 are a great pair! Stay safe. Love the candy!🤗

I would suggest having a box or something like that to hold your finds in. I would have kept the binders to hold stuff in or sell them for 5 cents each.

Congratulations on the school supply score! That was an awesome find on the books. It’s always great to keep our kids sharp over the summer months. Thank you for sharing.

Homeschooling families would love this!

Loved watching this one. I never realised what stuff schools may throw away that's crazy

Hi Stacey, shave cream is used to clean the students desk to get all the stains and marks off before school starts. You haven't seen half of what gets put in the garbage when school gets out. Our teachers put some things in the middle of the rooms and trade back and forth with each other. All new crayons and markers, lunch bags, paper towels, scissors, are put in the garbage. ANYTHING the students give the teacher at the end of the year. Nice awakening all parents should be made aware of this. I used to have yard sales with all the stuff they would throw away. Made a killing in money. Good luck, SaNdY

What a shame all of those workbook in the trash and everything else you could sell them at your yard sales thank you for saving what you could have a great day ❤️

This is very smart thinking. I never thought about checking school dumpsters since schools out. I might have to make a trip to the nearby ones and see what I can find myself! 😊

You to are so amazing to think of the next school year and helping other's God Bless your family.

I only went to one school dumpster and did really well. I wish I could have looked longer but a softball game was ending and I had to leave. But those dumpsters you guys went to were PACKED!

Very interesting! Stacy's right, about the teachers needing all that stuff next year... I don't understand them throwing it away either!

Those books have great arts and crafts ideas in them for the boys. The Mailbox is really fun.

Alcohol will also take off Sharpie marker. The tuna cans were prolly left over from a teachers quick grab lunch stash. My sister works in housekeeping at a university and it's mind blowing the waste that happens at the end of a school year from the classrooms, and even more mind blowing the waste that happens from the students in the dorms. Most buy new every year and throw away at the end of the year, and I'm not talking about just school supplies, I'm talking about dorm furnishings. Microwaves, bedding, clothes, other electronics, tons of plastic storage containers and shelving units, food, mini refrigeraters, lamps, wall décor.....pretty much any and everything one would need to deck out there dorm room for a nine month stay away from home. Can you imagine the added debt incurred on the loans they get, that they will have to pay back eventually for that stuff? Today's modern "disposable" world.....it's crazy!!

Oh my gosh you guys left sooo many great home school books. They may have even helped your own kids, and you left so many activities books your little one would have loved, note books, folders, binders , craft paper all in those first couple you hit especially the one Stacy found the first lot of books for your boy

Those are great books. They'll help them. And refresh their memories. Your a great daddy.

Fantastic finds. The schools could have kept those markers for the next year. Great video quality and lighting. Take care and God bless. Love you all.

Just goes to show that some teachers either don’t like chocolate or just didn’t want it I could honestly cry seeing you guys leave all those books that could help your kids and if they didn’t need them some other kids could have

OMGOSH!!! THOSE BOYS ARE SOOO CUUUTE!!!😍😍😍😍😍 Great haul, guys!👌👌👌

The frugal momma dives school bins all the time she finds all kinds of stuff all summer as people dump personal stuff in them also. You should check out her channel and see what all she does find. It's Frugal Family,Dumpster Decor And More. It's crazy what these schools throw out our taxes at work! Those work books and teachers books will sell to home schoolers plus. Great video. Love and Blessings to all of you💞💞💞💞💞

The shredded paper can be taken to an animal shelter or vet clinic

Shaving cream, you put it on paper and do art with it. To keep the kids busy. I'm daycare and that's what we did with it. You can make pictures on paper or put it on the table and let the kids draw on the table. You can do quite a few things with shaving cream. The kids have fun with it drawing.

Any learning materials people will buy for homeschooling purposes. They are invaluable to someone trying to teach or just help their child get better at a subject...PLEASE HELP THEM OUT!!!!! Also crayons can be melted down to make candles!!!!!❤❤❤😊

Love the great way you both interact with your kids

It’s so sad all that school stuff goes to landfills. There are so many low income school districts that would benefit from those things.

My heart sinks to see so much paper put to landfill when it could be recycled 😥. I’m really surprised that such a huge developed country like the USA doesn’t recycle more. Over here in scotland all school and local council paper is recycled, as is most other local government waste. Most resources are reused year after year( unless broken or out of date) 80% of All our household waste is recycled. We have 4 different coloured household wheelie bins which are emptied fortnightly. brown - garden and food waste, this is collected and used to make compost in huge anaerobic digesters. Green- plastic and cans. Gray- paper and cardboard. Small blue- landfil( emptied only once a month)All these things . We also have a a lot recycling depots where we can take bulk waste for recycling. all kinds of glass including lightbulbs, car batteries, garden rubble, electrical, wood, bushes and trees, metal, domestic appliances, bycicles etc etc can be taken and all is recycled. It is very much frowned upon if we don’t recycle. In fact the council fines people who don’t recycle. We are by no means perfect, mainland Europe is shit hot on recycling and way ahead of us. It’s great that you and Stacy take time to look thru big dumpsters and liberate things that are still good and can be reused or sold on. Your kids won’t be short on school supplies this year, that’s for sure. Love to all your family 🤗💕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Your a Nice lady & I love your hair, blonde & HI to hubby & Thanks for Sharing this, I used to do Dumpster Driving but not any more.

enjoy all those markers. I hope you saved all those workbooks

Adam, You and those BUGS!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You should try to untie bags. Tearing is making a royal mess in the landfills.

Have any of these schools ever heard of recycling? My son has graduated now, but while in school his special needs class would go room to room collecting recyclables (including paper) to sort and recycle. The amount of dead trees in those dumpsters brings tears to my eyes.

If it is little kids...teachers will use shave cream on the desk and let the kids practice writing with their fingers the alphabet or their names! Also if they ask for those markers next year, I would send back the working ones you found lol! That will teach em

Shoutout to u both from Brisbane Australia, I love watching ur video's because u both keep it real, nothing but love

Hope everything is going well for you guys God bless you both

I am watching all your old videos. I am a kindergarten teacher. We use shaving foam for sensory play on the tables...the kids love it. I am American but live and work in Poland. I never throw away supplies....so wasteful.

Schools are out week after next here, so I am gonna try supply diving. We have some extremely poor schools near me that I buy clearance supplies for every year. If I dive successfully maybe I can double my donations!!!

Awesome fines! Thanks for sharing.

Great finds. School s throw away as much as stores. Glad you saved what you did.

It seems like a lot of people are going to the schools and colleges I’m glad y’all found some I watched some last night and they was empty the lamp looks good I’m glad y’all saved all of that from the land field tyfs💕🙋‍♀️the boys are so happy 😀

I see folders for file cabinets,markers,lots of crayons that can be used for lots of stuff,construction paper,books... We only have 2 schools in the area here in the country.

You could donate those flip books. The schools that are hard up could use them. It would definitely help the teachers.

Wow what a lot of stuff from the schools. That is sad. Love you guys

The next time you school dumpster dive save the crayons! You can melt them down pour into some kind of silicone container in layers! Kids can draw or color in rainbow! Or make them solid color! Have done this with my grandkids!

All the dumpster divers I watched and I looked at quite a few I think you guys are the best guys are so sweet and I wish you would put more on I wish you all the best

You can also donate any books you find to parents who homeschool their children. They would appreciate those books and workbooks.

Oh my gosh yes all those books sell homeschoolers buy all those

During the cold and flu season, teachers will give the kids a squat of shaving cream to smear on their desks and wipe off to kill germs from sneezes and coughs and to cleen hands. Kids love fome.

Hav a great weekend 😃

One handed digging is very frustrating to watch.

Awesome books to do over the summer so they don't forget what they learned or work on new things before moves up a grade!

If you have dried up markers sometimes you can pop off the end of the marker and put a few drops of alcohol in the marker and it will rehydrate it.

Being a school employee from the Midwest,I hate seeing all the waste. At our school we try to recycle paper and other recyclables. Retiring teacher do leave items in the classroom or hallways for the new teachers coming.Sometimes the new teachers keep the items sometimes not. All the leftover lost and found is donated to our thrift store. The furniture that isn’t wanted is given to other teachers in the district or taken to the districts storage building. I know a lot of items still end up in the dumpster.

Someone could use those books for their kids if they are doing home schooling

As a high school math teacher I had as many as 220 students a day if each of them brought me a gift once a year and I left them on my desk I wouldn't have any room to do any work on my desk and if I scattered them about my room and then the following year had 220 students which brought me a gift at some time during the year and I scatter them throughout my room after just five years that would give me a total of over 1000 gifts from students scattered throughout my classroom.

also if you need patterns for anything the vanilla/manila folders are wonderful to use-they are like construction paper only a bit thicker

I'd def hit up schools just for the lost and found clothes. Good job you guys

They teach the kids to recycle then look what they do. Those pop tabs are collected for kids with cancer. At least that’s what they are collected for In Iowa. Love you guys.

Awesome you guys....I never thought about DD a school....Awesome idea....Thank you....Love the videos

Those "idea" books are awesome for daycare teachers and homeschool teachers! They are around $10 each..you could bundle them and give someone a good deal. When I worked in preschools we were always looking for month themed ideas.

Alcohol takes permanent marker off, maybe would take names off the folders, worth a try.

Great idea! School dumpsters, yeah baby!!!📓📕📖🖍✏

Those books are great for homeschooling and daycares

We just got home from school diving.. What a bounty and enough glue for slime making all summer long lol

What I am thinking which is sad is the schools have yearly budgets. If they don't spend the budget, the next year, the budget is less. So they throw things out to keep the budget up. As far as the gifts to the teacher, multiply the gifts each gift giving time by the number of students. I agree don't throw it away, but give, but obviously they don't give. Very true about goodwill. Sad but true. Thanks for sharing guys.

Don't forget to close the dumpster doors. Keeps weather and animals out. Love your guys videos.

You probably wont see this being such an old episode - but shaving cream is used to clean a white board occasionally - makes it look like new

Man, this was a hard one to watch. Every year my daughter has to buy school supplies for my two grandsons and the school gives her a list of what and how many to buy. To the amounts needed they add in the amount for her kids and kids that can't afford supplies. She has no problem helping the other kids so I hope they're school is not throwing any supplies away. I pray they are not 💰💰💰

Wish i lived closer to u that is some great educational books would love them for my home school

I GUARANTEE that the books you found were NOT tossed out by SCHOOLS - That is something that a company or business does - I found several of the books I saw you guys finding and they were valued at OVER $500 (and that was just a FEW of what YOU found. Just a SUGGESTION -if you ever find books like those again (CLEARLY never used and just looking at them, you can tell they are "brand new in original packaging) Pick them up as fast as you can - Sell them; donate them to a school; donate to children at Homeless Shelters etc. - Donate to kids at Hospitals, etc. Do whatever you care to WITH the - just RESCUE them.

You guys have FUN!!!

My kids were homeschooled. Those dumpsters would have been a gold mine! Unfortunately the schools in central Florida, and their dumpsters, are behind 6 foot fences.

FYI pull tabs may be better sold on eBay or etsy.com. chainmail and jewelry makers buy them. 10000 pull tabs on etsy are selling for $15.00+!

Watching this for the first time and you guys have me LMBO!

We don't send teachers mugs and stuff for gifts because they get so much of that stuff every year they couldn't possibly use all of it. We send gift cards for coffee and movie tickets or at places to eat. Stuff for nights out that they will use. The waste we see everywhere year with markers , and books ect that could be donated to more rural schools that don't get as much funding. At the very least should be recycled rather than sent to landfills is ridiculous.

The waste of new ,unused is awful.Our county has teacher store.They can donate what they can't use.Another teacher be thrilled. My daughter teaches first.I am retired preschool teacher.By the way,shaving cream fun w .hands on a table!!!

I suspect that those things in the tiny cases you found are reeds for reed instruments, such as Clarinet, Oboe, Bassoon, or Saxophone. I couldn't really see the brand but I thought you said Bocal Majority, which is a woodwind instrument store. I think those flat black items with the wires may be metronomes. They are used by musicians to keep time.

Great video that was crazy throw away all them books. In all that stuff kids give to them. In yes School supplies are expensive just for them to throw it away like that not right keep for the next year to give it to kids that need help with School supplies. Just want say hey to your family. Have a good day. 🙂

There was another bag of markers that you tossed after the first bag 9f markers

Awesome dig you two!!!

Hi Adam,Stacy and family! I enjoyed the video. There was a few things I didn't understand tho. Why didn't you get the chain link fence? That would of made for some great scrap, and it would of put some weight in the truck. Why did you not go through the sacks without markers. I agree our Teachers waist so much. Those books could of been saved till next year. They used to until they were completely worn out. Maybe they can't now I don't know. Be safe and have a great time. God Bless!

You're lucky to find books like that.

I never thot to dive at schools and now i hv a reason im guna b a first time grandma those were awesome finds and now im so excited to see what i could rescue for my lil grandbaby 👍 and yes Staci i agree that is extremely rude to find teachers gifts in the trash when parents go out of their way to show appreciation it might b much but at least give it to someone els who wud like it if u dnt

Hi how are ya guys!! I love yalls videos !!! And y’all have such a great relationship!! Also thoses book in this video you could donate to a homeschooler family!! Since books are so expensive

I was an assistant teacher we would have loved to have those idea books and some of the other books and to buy them they were expensive, if you find some next year you all could donate that stuff to a poorer school in your area or sell them in a yard sale or give them to another teacher

Save the markers for when the teachers ask for them next year!😁😁👍🇨🇦

I worked at schools as a custodian for 20 yrs,and between cleaning out lockers and what the teachers threw away I supplied my kids and grandkids and half of the neighborhood with stuff ,cases of elders glue,pencils not even used,rulers,folders,not to mention the lost and found stuff no one claimed,..You would not have found too much if you had come to my school,sorry...not sorry 🤣😁

please carry a couple of boxes, a cooler and some trash bags with you. if you dont need the boxes, you can always put them in the recyling
