Once a month or so you can leave household items out on the street for the city council to pick up the next day.
But at night a lot of people go cruising for free stuff for their houses.
More pics to come (next trash day).

i like how these two pics kind of merge into one symmetrical scene. i'm always tempted to pic up treasures from the side of the road, but then i'm reminded of rule #1:

if it's out with the trash, somebody pissed on it. (scavenger friends of mine have discovered the truth of this rule, much to their chagrin)

we do the same out here in new jersey, only the towns give us one week in spring and you must have your stuff out there by the first day. then they pick it up at the end of the week after all the scavengers have made a mess of your trash. can you imagine, a mess of your trash!

"reminded of rule #1:

Vspomnit': to Remember


I'm going to indulge in some nostalgia. One year ago I got on a plane with my friend and we headed to her home town, St Petersburg, where we stayed for the month of August. As there are very few...
