Got no problem with a homeless guy making money off bottles and cans. They got live too. I'm always giving can to people that ain't got anything. Usually if there down on luck they well take them. Had one guy come back thank me for giving him 20 dollars in can one day

This guy is such a hard worker. I hope an employer who can use an employee with that kind of dedication and perseverance sees this story and gives this guy a chance at a better paying job. If he's willing to work this hard for $15, imagine how he'd apply himself for $50. Seems like a win-win proposition. Wish him, his partner, and their dog all the best.

I like caning because is fun to do and it's helping out the world and the canners are doing the right thing.

I have recently started aluminium cans recycling business

Just let them live they are already going through stuff🙏

I would just let the homeless people take the cans because it’s better than them robbing houses, graffiti, or hurting people it’s a good pathway.

I live in LA, and stopped recycling my cans and bottles. I dump them in the public areas, like the trash outside the grocery store. The cans are ALWAYS picked up by someone who can benefit from them. We should rather thank them for reducing the environmental burden that not recycling can cause. Help a neighbor in creative ways!

Leave the bottle collects alone they making an honest living

At least hes not standing there on a corner with a sign asking for your hard earn money .who knows he might be able limited to certain working disabilites and due to previous record it would be hard to land a good paying job , that you could afford rent in California.

Been trying to do this to make some pocket money while I look for a job, but got busted for "scavanging". I hate this world.

I tried this one time, got 30bucks, but then it was exhausting walking from bin to bin, so I stopped.

Nothing wrong with homeless with trying to support them self

It is not illegal to rummage through litter bins. Because if it is in the landfill collection it is considered abandoned property. But if it is in a recycling bin recycling dumpster, then it is property of the trash company. Who ever it was who told you it is illegal to rummage through litter bins doesn't know what they are talking about.

We have been recycling for 7ys now, people only pick up change then they throw their trash on the ground, we see it as a Nickle slot machine, we donate around 9k a year to multiple schelrosis.

Take care of your lady , man. Much respect

I work for a restaurant, the owner is kind. Hopefully there is redemption centers here in New Zealand as well I feel like I want to do it, even though I’m middle class person.

I raid street bins daily for deposit containers. I am not in the States, but no one has ever told me that it is illegal, where I am, outside of the USA. The word I have, strictly unofficial, is that the local municipality, and the given collection contractor[s], won't whizz on the recycling aspect of it. .Once or twice I've crossed paths with the collection contractors, and they're a bit queezy me raiding the back of their compactor, but otherwise in no way pissed with me raiding ' their ' bins. One of them even gave me a generic bin key, on the wink-wink basis, but which I never need coz I've got the knack to unlocking and locking the bins.

Never thought like that

Although I'm not homeless,not far from it though,I hunt for cans and bottles every night. People put you through hell and treat you like shit on the bottom of their shoes
