Dumpster diving is fun | Diversión en vertedero

This may not be the case for everyone, but it is often frowned upon to dive through the trash for useful things. For us, it is an activity full of meaning, especially in a place like the one we visited a few days ago.

On the outskirts of the city closest to where we live there is a beautiful forest on the banks of the river. As seen in the images, it is a place of great scenic value.

However, one of the paths leads us to this:

It is an illegal landfill that started at the hands of a construction company and was later viewed by other people as a suitable place to add more waste.

The amount of things that can be found in such a place is impressive. We were particularly interested in construction material and nylon for our projects. However, there were from heaters to computers, that if we had the time and tools we would not hesitate to recycle.

This was our haul, among which stands out a stove spout in good condition, a sink in excellent state, a bicycle frame that will serve for our power-free washing machine project, and lots of wooden boards to use for different things.

We also got the satisfaction of being able to take advantage of useful things that would otherwise be garbage that ruins the beauty of this place. When you decide to see it, abundance is everywhere 😉

Puede que no sea así para todos, pero a menudo es mal visto bucear en la basura en busca de cosas útiles. Para nosotros es una actividad cargada de sentido, sobre todo en un lugar como el que visitamos hace unos días.

En las afueras de la ciudad más cercana a donde vivimos existe un bello bosque a orillas del río. Cómo se ve en las imagenes es un lugar de gran valor escénico.

Sin embargo, uno de los caminos nos lleva a esto:

Es un vertedero ilegal que comenzó a manos de una empresa constructora y que posteriormente otras personas vieron como un lugar adecuado para agregar más deshechos.

Es impresionante la cantidad de cosas que se pueden encontrar en un lugar así. A nosotras nos interesaba particularmente material de construcción y nylon para nuestros proyectos. Sin embargo había desde calefactores hasta computadores, que si tuviesemos el tiempo y herramientas no dudaríamos en reciclar.

Esto fue nuestro botin, entre lo cual se destaca un caño para estufa en buenas condiciones, un fregadero en excelentes condiciones, un marco de bicicleta que servirá para nuestro proyecto de lavadora sin eléctricidad y muchas tablas de madera para usar en diferentes cosas.

También nos llevamos es la satisfacción de poder aprovechar cosas útiles que de otra forma serían basura que arruina la belleza de este lugar. Cuando decides verlo, la abundancia está en todas partes 😉

I do love a good skip dive!

!PIZZA

So satisfying to go home loaded with all those free goodies! Thanks for the pizza :D

We just throw out and dump too much stuff, we have such a consumerist type of life now as a society.

That can change ;)

very nice.. there is no such thing as trash really.. its a human made concept that people without any imagination or connection say.. same for weeds really

100% agreed!

I love this so much!

Glad you dig it!

We have a caring is sharing shelf where I live and we leave out stuff we don’t want anymore for others to take I got two camping chairs and a Christmas cardi today! There is just something amazing about getting discarded items you love and giving them another home! I’ve left tons of books down there I hope people enjoy too.
