About me: I've been trash picking and using the money I make from my sales to buy treasures at garage sales! I make both picking and garage sale videos so check out my playlists to get all your trash picking or garage selling
I am based out of the Houston area and have lived here basically all my life. I am happily married with 2 kids. My son, Anthony proudly serves in the US ARMY!!! My beautiful daughter is a musician just like her mom and dad! I also have two fur babies. Judy, our Pomeranian and Sasha, our Yorkie.

A couple more pieces of gym equipment & you’ll be able to open your own Golds Gym Juan. Lol! I, myself, like the freedom of using the GoPro while you go out scavenging, because it shows the whole process of acquiring the items. We see the stuff in the daylight the next morning with the recap.
Brand new curtains, still in the package. Can't get much better than that. 😊
Thats cool with yout son being in the Army. I'm very grateful for the young men serving. My son is in the process of joining right now. I did 18 years myself. Most it as a member of a Special Forces A-team. I was the explosives guy for the team and the team sniper. I had great time, now my son wants to do what his old man did. Much respect for to your son.
Likewise, thank you for your service and your son as well.
Thank you and your sons for your service. God bless you all!!!!❤🙏❤
@@melissagardner6701 thank you Melissa, that is very kind of you. It does mean so much to hear someone say thank you. Our service men and women sacrifice so much. Most people have no idea and many others don't care. When someone like you comes along and simply say "thank you", it means so much. Have a great day and God bless you.
@@darenkroon661 both of grandfather's and 2 of my uncles served. 3 of them are now gone home to the Lord. My grandfather's both served in WWII.
Every time I hear the 21 gum salute or TAPS I sob 😭. Its like being right back there in front of their coffins all over again each time. Not sure that feeling will ever go away.
Im so very proud to be a granddaughter of not one but 2 WWII soldiers!! One of whom received the Purple Heart n Silver Star. He was a great man.
@@melissagardner6701 you have some great history and the genealogy of some amazing true Americans. What an honor for you to be able to call them family. My Grandfather was also in WWII. He was on the USS Enterprise. He was in every major battle in the Pacific after Pearl Harbor. He never talk about it. When he passed away I helped grandma with all his personal stuff we were amazed at what we found. Over his life he collected anything that had to do with the Enterprise. The thing is, no one knew not even grandma. He would purchase things in private and put it away with his stuff.
We were a Navy family for the most part. Three uncles in Vietnam, two Navy and one in the Air Force. I have researched my family and we have had family members in every war this country has ever fought. We are very lucky in the fact that we have never lost one member of the family do to war.
Love it. My brother and I use to do this same thing. It's worse than any drug you can do. Lol. The new stuff people throw away and like new is amazing. He's gone now and I'm to weak. He would have enjoyed your show. I sure do. Makes me wished he was still here. Thanks for the throw back. 💓
Sorry about your brother
Please stick with the GoPro. I really enjoy watching your searches. 🌻🌻
Love that little pink princess chair. It’s so cute!
I love Nancy Drew, I love mysteries. Thats awesome. Wow those houses were huge.
I love the pick and the after display when i can clearly see what you find. We are such wasteful consumers though.
We are
My favorite find was a full set glass table, umbrella, 6 chairs patio set
The thrill of the hunt! My ppl were pickers from way back but out of necessity (eramos pobres). We carry on today! TFS. Proud of your hustle God bless.🇲🇽
Thank you Dolly
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE watching your videos, watching you discover all the neat treasures and finds you do!!
Such fun!!! Please don't stop pickin Tex!!!🥰❤
Thank you Melissa. I’ll keep em coming
I love the monkey statue, he is so neat. It's amazing what people throw out instead of just, clean, recycle, donate. If there are stubborn spots on the ottoman/chaise cushion you can stain treat it with oxy clean solution and the scrub and rinse again and they should come out. They also sell sprays just to clean patio furniture and cushions. Nice finds. On your question of go pro versus iPhone, use whatever is most comfortable for you. It's easier for you to have both hands while picking. So maybe and external light for go pro or a hands free harness of some kind for the iPhone? Or just keep on doing what you are already doing.
Thanks for the input
I think it’s haunted!
That chair was adorable the mini pink one 💗
Man I've learned so much by watching your videos. A few days ago I went picking and I found a shoe box with lots of birthday cards. And in that second I remember you talking about always checking those kind of papers for cash. Well guess what. I took the box home and I found $50.00 in one of those cards.. thanks to you. Happy picking!
That is so awesome!!! Way to go!!!
I like the prints! I prefer the Go Pro! I think most of us like to see you interacting with the picking! Memories of my Dad making ice cream. Ours had a hand crank (back in the 60s).
Me too! My uncles used to make ice cream every time we vacation in Ohio (my homestate) in the 60's. Thanks for the reminder...✌🇨🇱
19:53 that is a very old blow torch. You will find that the the ammo tin, old fuel tin (which is probably for the blow torch and lamp) and the tilly lamp (rusty green light) are worth the most because people collect that stuff. Maybe try to restore the lamp a bit though as that is some serious rust. A power washer will get that green mildew off the cushion too. A quick spray with stain remover, leave for 10 mins and then power wash...GONE! :) LOTS of really great finds there my friend, I wish you well.
I love to watch you pick. You find the coolest stuff. Makes me want to go pick our high end neighborhoods.
Thank you Angi!
I really thought I had at least 2 of everything I could want but NO! That monkey table is adorable! Don't know were I would put it but I like it. Great hunting, love watching you.
Thanks Mary
Nice score! My favorite find was finding this channel. Love the content!
Nice! Thanks Jill!
My favorite finds were the bikes 🚲, the workout equipments & the curtains. 🙋🏾♀️😊💖. Great finds. 😁💖👍🏾
Thank you Rosa
I just found your show. I love junking myself when I was younger. I love your style of doing it early mornings.
Glad to meet you
They where all good finds, l can’t believe you found all that in a couple hour !!!!
America is a throw-away society, but I grew up in large family and a Dad who came from a 10 kids family in poverty. I learned early how to save, resale and give to someone who could use it. Love that you resale or repurpose so it doesnt fill up another landfill! You scored great,finds!
Thanks Mary. I do my best to not throw any of the things I find away. They either get sold, used, or donated.

Thanks Ms Mary. You are right, America or Americans toss out way too much stuff.
Alot of people throw away vacuum cleaners that still work but just need an easy fix or to be cleaned out
I’ve picked up a few and fixed them. I’ve also gotten really bad allergies from doing that so I’m not always so eager to take them home.
Thank god for guys like you who save this stuff from the landfill!
Always pickup garden sets they always wanted 👍😃
What a great haul! All those things were so usable - people throw stuff away willy nilly bad! Repurposing is the way to go! Love it!
They are bad! So wasteful
I have a few friends here who understand "dumpster diving" and how to find good stuff being thrown away. If you know the upper class areas, where people throw away leather couches just because they're remodeling and don't like the color or it doesn't match. You find everything, lawnmowers get tossed, because they need something stupid like a spark plug. Usually not too old either.
Some things are more seasonal though. Like we filled a truck with old grill covers once, all that aluminized adds up fast. Or they throw away cans because they don't care about a few nickles. Made our drive worth it.
Then there's businesses, sometimes offices do upgrades. You can find dumpsters full of old computers and other electronics. Only better than this is doing estate clean out, when you actually get paid to go through a house and pick through everything and either throw it away or put it aside.
It's just mind blowing what gets thrown away though. And what's expensive new technology today, is in the dumpster tomorrow. Obsolete or not, it's not always garbage.
You have a cotton picking scale and the weight that goes on it! It’s antique.
He sure does! I knew it was for crops but wasn't sure which one. He is lucky, you usually don't find that many pieces together especially the bigger hook part of it.
That’s what I told him but not all there
Love that monkey!!! I feel like i enjoy the go pro better! Really enjoy your videos. My husband and i are from Texas but now live in KS.
Thanks for watching!
You had a Great night Digging for Treasures. Looks like you have a beautiful home too.
That's an antique torch.
Great new gear with being able to use both hands to sort! Blessings and Peace ❤️✝️
Nothing better than treasure hunting after a long hard day at work.😃👍✌Great video.Keep finding those treasures.
Thanks Alan
@@TexanPicker Ur welcome 👍
One time, we had a city-wide trash pickup deal. Unfortunately, I didn't have a vehicle at that time to pick things up with. There was lots of nice stuff decorating the sidewalks, left out, around my neighborhood. I only got to bring a couple of things home, using my own body strength back then.
I do the same thing, my mom calls me to help her take something home. She calls me, and I go. Me and my brother just move it home if it is big. I look out the windows after a storm, or flood. Some items are not water damaged. We give it away, my mom and aunt know people who need it.
I'm so thankful that you go rescue all the good stuff. It may get into someone's hands that really needs it. God bless you
Thank you 🙏🏽
You got the rich neighborhoods on lock down!!! And yep, Cutco are great knives. Used them when I was a meat cutter. Great vid bro!!!
Thanks Smitty
The metal bell looking piece used to be used too clear out septic lines. I actually bought one at a yardsale because it was old , rusty and looked neat. The man told me what it is .
God bless you for the things that you upcycled. I guess my Dad was before h iui s time I don't know how many nice things he upcycled for us and help others. So that why I watch you and others that do what you do.
Glad you enjoy my channel Brenda
Hi brother nice picking ") I love picking i use to decades ago we live in the country now no picking here lol but love finding those treasures..... can make some good money ppl Thor out so many great things its amazing
I agree... I just started and already selling lots of things.
Cool Score on those Curtains !!!! - You can see that these Exercise Machines came from a "RICH" Household - we love Your Videos and stay Save and many-many Cheers from us here in Australia !!!!
Thank you
I literally could use almost everything that you looked at.
Love your videos. I like seeing you dig in the bags and boxes. Please don’t change your method. I even like seeing you load the truck, lol.
Seems to be the consensus !
Such a joy to see all your pickings. Best of luck for the future.
I like the weight for the clock. It looks like one that I need. I actually need two of them. I think they would work on my Eli Terry clock. It's about 200 years old and is made of all wooden parts. Eli Terry was a famous inventor who established mass production of clocks in the early 1800's. I need the weights in order to complete my clock and they are not easy to find.
"omg" I'M SO jEALOUS - Thanks for taking me on your adventures, "Spectacular FINDS" whooo hoooo
Thanks for coming a long Bruce
Same, makes me want to move. I live in a Mennonite community. No one throws anything out here 😅 dumpster diving is my dream job.. Here if people don't want something they donate it to the thrift store or sell it themselves on FB market place & varagesale
I love the pictures I love scenery like that..its lovely in the morning driving around and see those beautiful houses I can allways dream 🤣but you did get great stuff if I lived in usa I'd be out with my shopping trolley the stuff they throw out is unbelievable..thanks very much enjoy your videos..margaret in Ireland 🇮🇪😊
Thank you Margaret
I'm new to your channel and just love watching you find such great stuff and then showing it again in the day light. I've watch a few other trash pick channels and yours is by far the best. You get right to the pile of goodies! It's amazing what people will put in the trash. Things like the curtains in a bag to go into land fills instead of putting them in an open box where they would be more visible or donate them to salvation army or thing like that. Glade you open the bags! Again I'm really glade I found you.
Thank you so much Clare! I appreciate you and I’m glad you found me too!
I like the go pro just because I can see you go through things- sometimes I don't think to look in this or that and I'll see you do it and I learn
Ok
"We're going to need a bigger truck." LOL
Sorry, Mr. Spielberg.
Haha 🦈
I loved the monkey. I was hoping you grabbed him.
Good work. Need more people picking. It's just unbelievable what people throw out instead of returning new items.
Indeed
The way you do your vids is perfect Brother! No need to change a thing! My wife and I are addicted! Awesome haul! Your house is gorgeous.....so glad I found your channel! We’re up here in Conroe....near The Woodlands 😉
That’s awesome! I’m down south in Pearland. I’d like to go picking in the Woodlands, just so far away
Curtains are awesome!! Nice find. Have a wonderful day 🤗
Love watching your vlogs..I too got excited for what whatever things you discovered. Stay safe healthy and 😊
Thanks Lorna
The weight goes with the hanging cotton scale that you have. Great find!
Awesome thank you!
The canister with a red handle is a flame torch used in the old days to thaw train tracks, or to burn weeds.
Love what you're doing it's great for you and all saving all things from the land fills😂.❤. Thank you.
I enjoy all your picks. Please keep them coming. Better than garage sales.
Thank you
Me yelling at the screen around 20 minutes - THE WEIGHT GOES ON THE BEAM SCALE.
Haha, got it!!
Haha! That's hilarious! I wish I had someone screaming at me when I'm picking and not sure of what goes with what. Or couse texas picker takes his time. I'm usually in and out and whatever is broken..cant be fixed..etc.. I just put it out with my trash. Haha... I know pickers love my house. So much that I dont have time to fix... clean... or whatever the case is. So I just set them out they ALWAYS get picked up by someone :)
My way of paying it forward as 99 percent of what I throw out is all free finds! :)
I really enjoy watching you find great items in wealthy neighborhoods! Great channel.
Thanks Holly
Omg I just found this channel, love your videos!! Keep them coming 👍🏽
Thanks Rosa
Today is my very first day. LOVE how you put everything together! LOVE how you put everything out to see Let us look at it closely!
Hi Donna, I hope you stick around! Thank you
Love watching all your treasure finds....god bless you.
Thank you. God bless
Good morning , couldn't sleep so many decisions to make and turned on my laptop to watch RUclips to see if I can get my mind to stop racing and there you are . I love to watch your channel and see what all you find. Great picks ! By the way that little can is a kerosene can to fill the lantern and a blowtorch. That weight goes on the long bar thing, it's a weight measure. I want to say it weighted bags of cotton that people picked in the fields. It hung from a post and you could weigh what ever ..corn , etc. There was several weights that went with it. I'm sure you could find on ebay. Ice tongs. Get some sleep and God bless you and your family.
Thanks Wanda . Hope you’re doing well
@@TexanPicker doing as good as can be expected, With breast cancer just diagnosed there are so many things to decide on ! Never in a million years did I think it would happen to me. Tell all your women,, family etc. to go for a screening when it's time. If I don't comment it will be because I am tied up.. I will be watching !
Wanda Landers I understand, prayers sent your way.
If that collar is black fur and kind of coarse (each hair thick and not very soft), it is bear fur and you can get really decent money for it. It sells better than mink. Teddy bear makers grab them up.
Sweet haul. The trash in Michigan is actual trash, nothing this good. Congrats!
Some nice scores , enough for a flea market booth . Some of the older Coleman lanterns are worth big bucks . To check the date of manufacture look at the bottom under the Coleman name there will be two numbers . The number on the left is month , the number on the right is year . Hope you have a good one .
I’ll check it out
I LOVE to see your videos. You remind me of my Cousin he used to Dumped dive All the time until he died.
Thank you
Sorry about your cousin
I enjoy your videos and the interesting finds. God bless you & your family
I love your videos!! I like when you find the old chit !!! And you ain't bad to look at either !! 😂😂
Haha, thanks Renee
I loved the monkey table, could have used the inversion table and know someone I would give the exercise bike to! All in all a good night!
That can looking thing with handle is an old blow torch cook finds
Enjoy your videos. Beautiful homes there too! I’m always surprised what people throw away. Here in South Dakota we normally don’t see items out on the curb like this till it’s for spring clean up days in each towns. Keep on rolling! 😊
Thanks for tuning in my friend!
Could you do an update on things that have sold and how you get started doing this? I’d love to but I’m a bit nervous bc I don’t want to end up with stuff I can’t sell
You are one of my favorite pickers. I follow you and a couple from CA. This channel is “classy” and you are super respectful when going through the items!! Keep them coming!
Thank you so much Donna. I usually answer these type of questions in my LIVe stream videos.
Wow nice workout things n the bikes n the monkey 🐒 so many great finds thanks for sharing have a bless night prayers and peace ")
God bless!
I saw the exercise equipment and thought oh man those things break down into a thousand pieces. But hey you are a determined man I'll give you that. You did pretty well overall not to much to fix just sell it all. You gotta a pretty good voice on ya too the singing picker man. Get a t-shirt made you never know. Happy sales 🐺🐾👍
Haha thanks. I enjoy singing. I’ve been thinking about making hats, maybe shirts too 🤔
New subbie here, my son as well serves in the army, he’s stationed over in Germany! Nice score!
Thanks Kevin. Thank you boy for his service. I know you’re very proud
That monkey statue thing looked like one of the monkey's from the wizard of oz.
Yeah it does
Good morning nice score keep rockin it stay blessed.
You too Pauline
That flame thrower takes white gas. Sold it at gas stations when I was a kid. Dad melted lead and cast fishing weights for Salomon fishing on the Sacramento river. Old memories. Thanks
How fun we try to buy flea market but never thought about this cool! You’ll have a thrift store before to long
I could have one now if I had the time. I do, however, have a booth inside an antique mall. I do pretty well there.
Hi, from Newfoundland Canada,Julie here, Love ur videos 👍 blows my mind what people throw away!!
Hey Julie thanks
An ice cream maker! Cool 😎
They're great fun at cook-outs and barbeques.
Very nice
I have a great recipe for homemade ice cream, no eggs
@@greyferguson9319 who puts eggs in ice cream?
Love the ice cream maker nice for decor what a great amazing fine 🙂 👌
Thanks!
The best part of the videos is the search not the recap in my opinion
I think many of us feel the same way
@@TexanPicker true
I like the recap!!
@@roma.k didn't say I didn't like it...just the search is the best part.
Great video. Fitness equipment and draperies a wonderful find ! The monkey was my favorite tho.
Yes! You got that white mountain ice cream freezer! And it was made in the USA! I was screaming at the screen! 😂 I hope you sold it and made a nice amount of $!
You gotta love rich people. Throwing away 5 brand new, never been opened, $35 curtains.
That one item with the handle is an antique blow torch. I guess the pump is to apply air pressure in the can. I think it runs on kerosene. Kind of like a flame thrower. That scale metal is for weighing blocks of ice. Years ago before refrigerators made ice or stores sold crushed ice, we had to purchase block ice. They would weight it. That weight on the tailgate is so a certain weight.
Great! Thank you
You are right you have enough equipment to open your own gym 💪🏼🤣
I can’t believe the exercise equipment you were picking up! Making space for all the new Christmas toys maybe.
Maybe?
I think she dumped her husband and all his equipment.
I believe the handled metal thing you couldn't read is like a plow torch from late 50's to 60's. I remember my father using one.
The weight and that hook thing go together it's a scale
That long rusted thing looks like an old weighing scale, that goes with that heavy bell looks like object.
Nice finds in there....keep safe and God bless you always!
I love all the video, enjoying what you found at the end too.
Thanks Crafty Mama
I love watching you picking.You found some great stuff, I like those pictures. I know a lot of little boys would love that dragon backpack! Can’t believe people would throw away those brand new curtains! Great video lots of cool stuff. There is a RUclips website called “The clock guy “he might need that weight for one of his clocks, he’s a good guy. Him and his wife go dumpster diving and find a lot of cool stuff.
Ok I’ll check it out
Love your video's, loved the pictures and curtains, I really enjoy how you show everything you find, awesome score!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Lisa
Awesome finds man!
Love the prints.
Thank you
Love the wooden wine rack, and the monkey table
