    I would have grabbed the table legs and the lamp...you may get a lamp shade at a later date..lamps are so easy to fix..I have found and fixed so many and made good money on them. Open the boxes of broken wine glasses usually 1 or 2 broken...and one or 2 are good..you could have still saved those two Christmas trees and fixed the one that had the part and repurposed the other.. Everything in those dumpsters can’t be perfect.. You have to put a little blood sweat and tears into fixing them and show what being a dumpster diver is all about..You don’t like to get your hands dirty..I am a 50 yr old woman.. I do it! I even get caught. I don’t even lie about the boxes..I tell the.m I am diving. They don’t care! They are used to people doing it!

    Have you ever been approached by the police while dumpster diving? My brother in law is a scrapper and was once charged for trespassing while dumpster diving. They tacked on a public nuisance charge to boot and the charges stuck. This was in New Jersey. I imagine the companies might consider it a liability if a dumpster diver is injured on their property, but otherwise it is just being draconian.

      That's because nj is full of shit!! They rather put good stuff in a landfill than let it be recycled and used. NJ sucks. Most places have a no trespassing sign if they don't want you dumpster diving. But check laws in nj. They may have a law against it. Also check ticket. It should have law or ordinance # that was violated.

      wearing a hard hat when not at a construction site looks weird.
