Garbage picking is when people look for things that have been thrown away and try to find things that they can use. This can be anything from furniture to clothes to toys to tools.
When people throw things away, they usually put them on the curb or in a dumpster for the garbage truck to pick up. Garbage pickers will go to these spots and look for things that are still in good condition and can be used again. They might take things home to clean or fix them up.
Garbage picking is a way that people can save money by finding things that they need instead of buying them new. It's also a way to reduce waste by reusing things that might otherwise end up in a landfill.
However, it's important to be safe when garbage picking. Make sure to wear gloves and protective clothing, as well as be mindful of any hazardous materials that might be present in the garbage. Additionally, it's important to always ask permission before taking anything from someone's property.
