They don’t purposely throw it away, if a customer goes to return something and it is opened they can’t sell a product that is open so they have no choice but to throw it away.

It’s sucks you would think they would donate it to like a women’s shelter or something. For inventory we had to damage it out. I would be careful going through dumpster too.. the company I worked for had cameras.

Makes sense, but this is perfectly legal, so even if the person gets caught they can’t do anything about it 🤗 worse case scenario the store starts locking up the trash bins, being petty for not being able to make a profit

Trowing away books feels like a crime to me haha 😢

Great finds! I'm so glad you were able to save some stuff from going to the landfill - that's honestly always my biggest motivator if I dive. Unfortunately out here you see a lot of the mixing trash w/ salvagable goods. Also I can confirm as an ex-employee of Half Price Books, EVERY SINGLE NIGHT we pulled at LEAST a huge box full of items to toss in the dumpster. It's all perfectly good, HPB just gets so much new inventory daily that they have to cycle product that often! It always crushed me, and I was so happy whenever our local divers came by. Happy hunting, everyone!!

A little insight to those who don’t know.. as someone who has worked a few retail jobs, there are a few different reasons companies end up having employees destroy and toss merchandise. (Yes I agree it sucks). One of the reasons items are destroyed is because people who do take the items out of the trash might then take the merchandise back into the store and get a non-receipted store credit for items they never purchased to begin with and basically the company is then paying someone for “stealing” their merchandise. And a lot of times those people end up selling those store credit gift cards to make money. Also big companies don’t have the payroll or time to donate from each and every store the amount of things that get toss daily. Another big thing is they cannot let employees or anyone else just take the items because what ends up happening is unfortunately certain employees will take advantage of that and then all of the sudden there is an increase in purposefully “damaged” items so that people can take them for free even if the item was perfectly fine. So they really have no choice but to say destroy it and throw it away. Not to mention sometimes people will throw things in the trash and have someone else then come pick them up to resell so they try to avoid that as much as possible im sure. And most of the items that get thrown away are obviously damaged things that they can’t sell at a discount cause no one wants them.. stuff that gets recalled for cancer or safety issues etc. … or returns that can’t be put back on the shelf. There are other reasons too that’s just some of them. Anyway hope that kind of helped even though no one will probably see this!

I worked at target and we didn’t throw anything away except food and undies. Anything else was sent to a liquidation center for resale.

I always have disinfectant gel with me or Lysol wipes to use after dumpster diving. Get a grabber I got one ☝️ at Home Depot. It’s just better if you have one ☝️ to help you.get things out of their better. I carry a sacks to load things into. Or keep a box or container in your truck to put things into. I carry trash bags also to help out. . I used a bucket I had in the beginning but finally got a step stool. You can use wherever at first. I used a curtain rod. I used a shower bar. It’s better if you can get a grabber Better to go during the day. It’s kind of dangerous at night to dumpster dive. It’s a lot more fun 🤩 to take a buddy. Oh this is one of the most important things. Figure out the schedule. I use to check ulta or wherever and I would write ✍️ down if it was empty or full on each day. Until I figured out what day the trash garbage men were coming to pick up the trash from the dumpsters. I usually went every single day to figure out the schedule.

Awesome finds!

I love dumpster diving, but it's very illegal where I live, and the dumpsters near any stores are locked, so I go to dumpsters far away from the city, to the paper recycle thingy, because you can find a LOT of books (without covers) from there, and some school books, so I can learn new stuff without paying hundreds of euros

I am completely shocked that the Squishmallows were not given away to kids... like that would be perfect for kids come on! Why companies? Food is understandable but give away items that aren't food if worry about people getting sick/expired.

Good stuff, so disrespectful to throw away books and food, even cut clothes 😢 you re doing well 👍🏻

Awesome 👏 finds !!! That’s simply AMAZING!!!!!! Half priced books was always full when I use to check it !!! It’s so devastating seeing half priced books throw all of that stuff away !!! Their are a few leave a book and take a book places mailboxes !!! Give away or sell them for a 25 c a piece at a yard sale or give them away so they won’t go to the landfill or put it IN the blessing boxes !! It’s always worth it to check the soup 🥣 box !!! Yay 😀 They probably throw so much away because it isn’t selling or they probably try to put it out and if it doesn’t sell they have to throw it out !!! It’s so frustrating and heart breaking to see that !!!

What a waste - those clothes could go to shelters.

I can’t stand it that Gap and Old Navy cut the clothing up so no one can use it! Why don’t they donate it? It adds to our landfills when it doesn’t have to. These companies should be fined for not disposing of their rejects to people that need it. Heck, have a Dollar sale at their store and they would be swamped with customers.

The stuffed animals would be great to donate to a womans shelter or police station, for the kids going though trauma.

Those Nora Roberts books definitely got my attention 😮 would be keeping those. Everything else i would sell 😊

Yeah I’m going dumpster diving🤩😍

Wow what a shame that these companies do that instead of donating these items but Great finds at least they will have a good home and good use people are so wasteful. You have a new subscriber

To answer a few questions ive seen in the comments I worked in Topshop in the UK also Debenhams The reason we disposed of makeup perfume ect is due to customer returns if the product or garment comes back damaged we cannot resell that item its sad and wasteful but thats what Management make us do

Curious do you disinfect the stuff you find?

All half price books do that and it is a shame $1000s of dollars of books and dvds daily per store. I hate they waste so much I always take what I cam and donate to nursing homes children's homes etc
