When I moved back to Paris after china I couldnt believe the stuff on the street !! I managed to furnish my house and even with antiques !! when I lived in the South of france I met a couple with a great vintage store who were millionaires by going through the Streets of paris with a van !!! at least that is how they started !!!! and then I began to meet other pickers ,, and I would distribute the stuff to people who couldn't 'lower' themselves to pick !!! it was fun !! Vuitton bags, mink coats, Cartier jewellery ,, tons of art books, 19 th century paintings ,, old desks and antique chairs ,,, and enough great label clothes for a small town !!
Holy crap, I wish I was at your flea market when you sold those Corning Ware dishes. That style is coming back and people want them. A fan from New York !!
Great video i enjoyed seeing you picking stuff.wow that first treasure box looked interesting. that one round antique table was lovely looks like the one i have which belonged to my grandma.
that cement thing you said "i have no idea what that is"...the umbrella top you picked up after it, goes on top and 2 sitting frogs go on either side. its a garden ornament.i got one for $5 and sold it for $30
Hey Taco, great haul !!! I think those two wood tables with the metal feet covers are antique...you should be able to get good money for those. Love your videos !
I wish I lived in your neighborhood. I can never find wicker and love it! I would buy all I could afford. Hey that Caphalon you found is high dollar cookware. You didn’t do bad at all. 👍
Cool vids,keep it up. And that NFL foot thing was badass back in the 80's . Comes with magnet players and when plugged they vibrate. Very collectible !
I’ve been watching your videos in order and this one has several duplicate clips in it that you already posted. The part where the kid comes and takes the grill, the big pile of trampoline pieces and also the guy who tells you about the food. Maybe I watch too much! 🤣🤣
Heads up, dyson and other vacuum cleaner heads and attachments go for decent money even in used, or even not working condition on ebay. Enjoying the videos, keep up the good work.
I love all your vids, but your trash-picking ones are my faves. Around here, we can only set out what they call "large items" three times a year, so I spend more time anticipating trash-picking than actually doing it. Our next one is at the end of the month, so I'm watching you as part of my pre-game practice! Keep up the good work.
MANNNN I LOVE YOUR ATTITUDE ALWAYS UP BEAT AND POSITIVE, FULL OF ENERGY, OOOO I LOVE GOING ALONG ON THE RIDE. YOU GOT SOME VERY NICE THINGS TODAY. THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. IT IS WHAT IT IS ,AND IN THE WORDS OF THE LATE PAUL HARVEY ,GOOD DAY
That's a old Electric football game That's a classic if you have all the pieces it's nice timeframe 152 on this video keep putting them out there man love watching your videos one man's trash is another man's treasure God bless you and your family
Joey I love what u do and I'll be doing pretty much the same thing when I move next summer but I don't like the fact that you cut cords. I repair , clean , etc , vacuums and when you cut the cord your hurting the guy that gets vacuums . That cord pays you too little to hurt the vacuum guy. That's my only gripe , love your videos. Kurt.
Vacuums are a touchy subject on this channel, most of the time they are thrown out because they don't work right. But sometimes they might smoke, the cord can be messed up, or they were used to vacuum up insects / bed bugs / termites or other insects. With that in mind, I would hate to have it in my house / garage or in my van for safety reasons. If I sold at local auctions, I would bring them there because as-is they bring a 5-20 bucks a piece usually. I just am not in that business, hopefully I don't cut any of your cords in the future. Also hope you don't pick any up that may be faulty in that way.
I'm in Florida and people here are lazy and without knowledge on how to do a simple thing like change a belt. I may get 1 out of 100 that doesn't work. Keep the great videos coming and if you cut a cord I'll get over it. Take care Kurt.
That little red thing with the lampshade looking thing that you said you had no idea of, is a little love seat yard ornament that usually has a couple of frogs sitting on it and the lamp shade is actually an umbrella that goes on top. without the frogs though, I doubt if anyone would want it.
Love your vids Taco. You have me hooked on saying "It is what it is". Still waiting for the vlogs of what you sell on line>>>> are you still going to give that a try? Also, just curious what are your plans for videos in the winter months?
You got a really good haul and are very neat about taking stuff. The guys around here just pull everything out and take what they want and leave the other things for you to pick up. Grrr....
You should take all the books you find in good condition, and donate them. Places like Libraries, Vietnam Veterans of America, Salvation Army, Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity ReStores, Retirement Home’s. Just use a little bleach wipes on them to clean them and donate.
13:33 I know this is an old video but thought I would mention that lamp is a touch lamp. It's a 3 way lamp, you touch the shade to turn on/off and to whatever brightness. They also sold them in smaller versions with a rounded glass shade.
That's how it works! You let that guy have that little bbq'er and then a bit later you get scrap all taken apart for you! There is enough to go around!👍
Wtf, the amount of metal lying around, it's astounding, nicest thing i pull out a dumpster/skip was a 1920's murano glass blown pendant lamp, it's hanging in the hall now :) In England they will go in your garden and take metal objects, if you catch them they just say they thought it was thrown out. I used to get loads of stuff the same way as you but now i live in Poland the tramps beat me to it lol
To , Awesome taco stacks. Im Vicki M, in Eagleby, City of Logan, south of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. We love to get rid of our junk during council pickup and i always hope someone can use it , before it gets crushed by the trucks for land waste. We cant leave glass out so i hope someone takes tables with glass or mirrors, stoves. Etc, before hand. OR else any thing with glass is left behind, and we get a note in mailbox. ! Never thort of the cars and trailers that drive by, as 'pickers,' before your videos .( that just graded me up a bit.) But most who have a look here, are respectful and keep things in the required piles. INVITING YOU TO VISIT! I like how you dont depreciate anyone, for what they dont need , nor scatter there (junk). Our Browns Plains , recycling centre is Awesome. Its 30 people deep, waiting to open on Friday Mornings. Regards Vicki.
Do you have a sign on your Van, could be some easy advertising as I see you do run into people picking up stuff. Wish I could go do garbage day pick ups I loved it. Ever done dumpster diving ?
Yards around me no longer take e-waste. They used to about 2 months ago. Now they will take it for "free". Also looked soaked, so I couldn't part it out.
there is always cashforelectronicscrap.com they are also known as cj environmental. I deal with them on e-waste. no need to pay for shipping if you have the right materials they pay shipping costs for you and they will send a check to you at the end of processing.
Wish I had an Are like that to pick up “free” stuff.......but we live out in 10 buck 2.......we don’t even have a mall...in the next 30 miles.......is the gas cost worth it? Let me know!
With the camera picking up your heartbeat, you got your own Rap rhythm going!
I'm 71 years old and I'm addicted to taco stacks...you are awesome!
The things I especially like about what you do Taco, the things you pick up don’t end up in the landfill, reused, recycled, win win!

Great picks today! Wow the nice things people throw away.
Tables are "Lyre Style". Probably 1940's. I paint the the toe caps gold or brass color, tighten the joints and can get $25 apiece easy.
It kills me what you pass up sometimes.
Holy crap, I wish I was at your flea market when you sold those Corning Ware dishes. That style is coming back and people want them. A fan from New York !!
This was a lot of fun to watch while I was writing checks and paying bills. Thanks for a good Saturday morning❤️
Great video i enjoyed seeing you picking stuff.wow that first treasure box looked interesting. that one round antique table was lovely looks like the one i have which belonged to my grandma.
that cement thing you said "i have no idea what that is"...the umbrella top you picked up after it, goes on top and 2 sitting frogs go on either side. its a garden ornament.i got one for $5 and sold it for $30
I agree, sometimes just let stuff go. That neighbor can use the grill and there is no shortage of scrap elsewhere for the rest of us too.
I gave a thumbs up before I started watching as I new it would be a good video :)
Cool
Hey Taco, great haul !!! I think those two wood tables with the metal feet covers are antique...you should be able to get good money for those. Love your videos !
My Dad used to work at Corning Glass Works, he worked there from 1978 till 2011, when he retired.
You must be too young to know how popular that electronic football was....WOW!
Since I have been watching your videos I'm always watching on the sides of the road...Nice finds ty for the video from Austin TX ☆
I like your new start! Love watching you your so enthusiastic. 👍
Thanks taco stacks ..... keep living the dream cause I'm trying to now
He's leaving some really good stuff behind!!
I wish I lived in your neighborhood. I can never find wicker and love it! I would buy all I could afford. Hey that Caphalon you found is high dollar cookware. You didn’t do bad at all. 👍
There is nothing like this where I live. I can't get over the nice things you find.
Taco stacks saving the earth !!
wow you filled that van quick! Thumbs up!
Cool vids,keep it up. And that NFL foot thing was badass back in the 80's . Comes with magnet players and when plugged they vibrate. Very collectible !

Dyson are most thrown away vacuum cleaners, they are always at refuse places, expensive crap
I enjoy all your videos. Thank you
I learn alot from you thank you for your videos keep up the good work!
Weel barrow are good for flower beds 🌼🌻🌹
Some of the wicker has steel frames in them.
I love all your vids, but your trash-picking ones are my faves.

Hi Taco... I really enjoy watching your video.. Erden Capil from Philippines... Have a great day! Peace!
MANNNN I LOVE YOUR ATTITUDE ALWAYS UP BEAT AND POSITIVE, FULL OF ENERGY, OOOO I LOVE GOING ALONG ON THE RIDE. YOU GOT SOME VERY NICE THINGS TODAY. THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. IT IS WHAT IT IS ,AND IN THE WORDS OF THE LATE PAUL HARVEY ,GOOD DAY
Hi Taco... I really enjoy watching your video.. ErdefromPhilippin Have a great daylPeace
I went to the flea mkt this past Sunday. No Tacos for sale, Lol! Hope nothings wrong with the Mystery Machine. Take care have a good week!
Great score! Got all excited thought you got Pyrex but they were Corningware
8:37 "I rarely come across anything good" yeah right!
That's a old Electric football game That's a classic if you have all the pieces it's nice timeframe 152 on this video keep putting them out there man love watching your videos one man's trash is another man's treasure God bless you and your family
cutting the plugs off :( you should take the whole thing or leave it for someone who needs it....if it did still go its screwed now
Yea that’s kind of a jerk move.
The books sell nicely at flea market!
Those tables with toe caps are Dunkin Fife and well liked
Knowing my luck I'd get yelled at or in trouble trying this where I live lmao.
I think you're brilliant. Very friendly. Not a sign of a child around, or adult really? Are you out so early everyone is asleep?
Those were some nice tables you found, to be honest I've learned a lot from watching your videos.
Good video..i always want to rearrange the back of his van..looks like fun
Man I could have used that cage for my mouseys! 🐀🐁🖤
Keep on rocking in the free world.
I love that end table in the thumbnail (and at 11:40 in the video) it’s kinda sad to see so much mid century items being discarded.
Love the new opening title
Wow I want those tables!!!
Joey I love what u do and I'll be doing pretty much the same thing when I move next summer but I don't like the fact that you cut cords. I repair , clean , etc , vacuums and when you cut the cord your hurting the guy that gets vacuums . That cord pays you too little to hurt the vacuum guy.

Take care Kurt.
The motors in those vacuums are worth more than the cord.
So what do you do with the cords?
when I was scrapping I would pull the motor because the scrap yard I dealt with would buy them but then again I had to or starve
Nice haul you got love watching your videos
real hustle right there man keep grinding once you make 5k keep em and start a online business on shopify
That little red thing with the lampshade looking thing that you said you had no idea of, is a little love seat yard ornament that usually has a couple of frogs sitting on it and the lamp shade is actually an umbrella that goes on top. without the frogs though, I doubt if anyone would want it.
That umbrella base would make a good base for a tractor seat. Garden art/seating...
"this was a very good day" .
those trampoline springs sell pretty good on ebay
Love your vids Taco. You have me hooked on saying "It is what it is". Still waiting for the vlogs of what you sell on line>>>> are you still going to give that a try? Also, just curious what are your plans for videos in the winter months?
At 4:57 it appears those are Dyson attachments.I hope you picked up that box look at the completed
Lady @ 8:20 was awesome!
Turn trash to treasure the tragic to magic Goooooo 💃 Salsa
You got a really good haul and are very neat about taking stuff. The guys around here just pull everything out and take what they want and leave the other things for you to pick up. Grrr....
The number one thing I pick up are vacuums Nine out of ten times they work just need to be cleaned. Unless of course someone has cut the cord.
Don't sell your corning ware blue cornflower for $1!!!! OMG! I'd buy them all! Easy $10-15 flip on eBay just like Pyrex.
I can hear your heart beating! Love yer videos.
The long wire is for the electrical welding apparatus, in order to remove the bicycle's locks... See, how it's done on the RUclips ™...
Put "hobnail" milk glass on Ebay. There's quite a lot of it on there. I saw you found a hobnail lamp in another vid.
You should take all the books you find in good condition, and donate them. Places like Libraries, Vietnam Veterans of America, Salvation Army, Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity ReStores, Retirement Home’s. Just use a little bleach wipes on them to clean them and donate.
Was the light up reindeer in working condition?. I would have grabbed it.
I have had good luck selling wicker when I spray paint it a nice color.
Good job saving the earth!
Great video as always!
Cute table, that was a football game and small
Pool table, your trash is good!
Some kid ran inside to get a capri sun and this dude stole his bike! lol
hellspawnman I was thinking the same exact thing lol !!
hellspawnman lol
You should try the sweepers first before you cut the cord. I have found sweepers that work.
You are always happy . I like that attitude.
You sure work hard for your money. Good for you!
All your hard work is making me tired.
Love all the pyrex Corning Ware and I Love the videos. Wish they were longer.
13:33 I know this is an old video but thought I would mention that lamp is a touch lamp. It's a 3 way lamp, you touch the shade to turn on/off and to whatever brightness. They also sold them in smaller versions with a rounded glass shade.
Loving the daily uploads
That's how it works! You let that guy have that little bbq'er and then a bit later you get scrap all taken apart for you! There is enough to go around!👍
That dude should have given you the right to first refusal on the grill. No picket etiquette, except from our TS!
the wheel barrow are worth money you can paint the second one
I picked up a wooden spool last week but it still had about 50lbs if insulated copper wire on it.
That was very cool of you to let that guy take the grill
You find the coolest stuff 😉👌
I thought it was pretty good except for the cutting of the vacuum wires. Maybe someone needed one, now it’s useless 😕
Sometimes the vacuums don't work anymore it's why people get rid of them
Why pass on the electric motor inside the vacuum. That might be worth as much if not more than just the cord alone.
that weber was sweet man
The red thing was a kissing bench with an umbrella, great fleemarket find in my area.
I love donuts too! Hehehe.. I'm your no.1 fan.. Erden from Philippines.. waiting for your reply... Do your family with you taco?
Wtf, the amount of metal lying around, it's astounding, nicest thing i pull out a dumpster/skip was a 1920's murano glass blown pendant lamp, it's hanging in the hall now :) In England they will go in your garden and take metal objects, if you catch them they just say they thought it was thrown out.

Do you have a sign on your Van, could be some easy advertising as I see you do run into people picking up stuff. Wish I could go do garbage day pick ups I loved it. Ever done dumpster diving ?
A that bike didn't look like trash, I'll bet some little didn't think about where he parked his bike, NOW it's gone.
Dude, that computer tower gives you more money than light iron... C'mon.
Yards around me no longer take e-waste. They used to about 2 months ago. Now they will take it for "free". Also looked soaked, so I couldn't part it out.
Yep, part it out and sell boards and CPU to gold refiners, way more money then iron
I use to junk. I never found good stuff like you do. Do you go in rich neighborhoods?
there is always cashforelectronicscrap.com they are also known as cj environmental. I deal with them on e-waste. no need to pay for shipping if you have the right materials they pay shipping costs for you and they will send a check to you at the end of processing.
