Earn Cash from Trash

We have a saying here "May pera sa basura" (there is money in garbage). I believe that this is true to some. For others, it is impossible to do it.

Where can we get trash and turn it into cash? We start at home, we can recycle plastic bottles, bottles and other stuff that can ne recycled. Sell it to the junkshop nearest you.

Others can find cash from garbage trash bins or dumpsters. I have been watching a Filipina Vloggers who is currently in the US. She is filming her dumpster diving adventures. She uploads it on YouTube - double purpose. Look for trash - and earn money from YouTube. Basically, what she is getting from the dumpster are items that can still be used. If fruits or other food, she is making sure that they are still palatable.

She also goes around the neighborhood to look for furniture, appliances and other stuff that are dumped outside the homeowner's properties.

Others will still sell the items they are getting from the dumpster and earn cash from trash.

Have you tried collecting your trash and turn it into cash? When I was a kid, it was a good business for me to collect wine/alcoholic drink bottles and sell it.

My sister is doing that. All stuffs at home that are old like refrigerator, TV, fans, empty bottles of different brands, plastic or breakable, she sells them. We bought new appliances so the old were sold including our sala sets.

This business is very popular in every places in the world. It's very lucrative indeed because one just hand picks the empty bottles and other used plastic items for reselling back to the relevant stakeholders.

Have you seen people in your place picking wasted fruits and vegetables in the trash? But the dumpster divers are blessed to find good items in the trash. Just like what happened to Inday Roning, she found fruits wasted and others chocolates.

Sorry, I have not heard about it and it seems so yucky, lol. Those scavengers are living below the poverty line. They do not have other means to survive. That is their orientation.

The fruits she is getting from the dumpsters are not so yucky. Most are still packed. The reason why the store threw them, they are almost expired or 1 pc is about to rot. But they can still be eaten. I won't pick those already trashed and not packed.

If you have time and only if you like to watch Inday Roning, she is a Filipina based in the US. You can check her YT, again, only if you like. LOL. There is one Pinay as well doing this but I can't remember her name. This other Pinay, is unique, the fruits that are not edible go to the compost pit she made.
