I did a bunch of removals jobs loading a house into the truck and straight to the tip. Threw out a bunch of good stuff. Sad really.

Hard rubbish down here tomorrow. Guy next door has a kiddy slide and I’m really tempted to take it.
Youth is wasted on the young as they say.
But honestly the amount of perfectly good stuff people chuck is wild.

Absolutely disgusting. Convention bump outs are the same. So much perfectly good stuff in the skip when a few phone calls could rehome it all.

I used to live in hawthorn and the stuff put out in hard rubbish around there was incredible. Would have scored a lot of nice furniture except I couldn’t carry it by myself

Boyo once did a demo job where they had seemingly left everything, clothes, crockery the lot. Too rich to give a shit apparently.

One of my fav YTers is doing a house reno in Japan and it’s amazing to see the state of a house in Tokyo that’s been abandoned for 10 years. So many unopened, unused things, it’s totally bizarre.

I used to see that attitude when I was living in Carlton. Rich students would just leave an apartment full of furniture and even their car when they finished uni and went back home to China. Their stuff would end up on the footpath.

Yes, the student dump is quite a thing. Some places you can get astonishing stuff in Hard Rubbish. Miss it, this area does individual booked pickups.

Mr P did demolition for a while. We didn’t pay for cleaning sprays for ages. One time they found a whole lot of stuff for making fake IDs. Boss had dibs on the jewellery.
