Don't burn the bed! Sell it on facebook local. You'll get $45 to $65 dollars for it. It's a kids loft bed. The wood you said you could burn is the slats for the bed.

[@Jezzy2much4u]

the steps are for the bed frame.....looks like a loft bed that is lifted with space underneath.

[@saedoll2507]

Glad someone said something. They are from Ikea - I'm pretty sure. The steps are a lot safer than a ladder. =)

Hi Taco! That's a loft bed put it on Marketplace or Offer up.. You can get at least 100. for it. They will come get it or meet with you to get it.

[@idahobeef]

All those storage bins, worth money! I pay $5 for each at my local thrift stores

[@multiple_miggs]

Aren't they $5 on sale at Target and Home Depot brand new?

[@arepurposedlifewithlaura3333]

Ok, you're going to have to update all of us on the bed and chair. I think you should start putting videos up and go back and read comments before throwing anything out. In my area, you paid $5 and could easily make $500 with what you found there today.

[@brookeburks6268]

That couch & loft/bunk bed you probably could get $60 each or more off of market place or offer up.

[@jamiekonz9151]

Dude that bed is worth a good amount. Why not put it up on a local FB marketplace???

[@lakelassie934]

I disagree. Cheap pressboard and poorly made, would sell at estate auction for $2.50 to $10. No one wants their kid hurt on cheap bedroom furniture.

[@jenni1111100]

It looks like a good toddler bed and that stuff sells all the time on FB marketplace

[@imabee2010]

Yep, storage steps are for a bunkbed setup. Very cute

[@cherrybomb7657]

Seems as if you are so used to picking trash beside the road that you don’t understand when going through boxes of unknown items you need to be more careful. You might have actually broken the squirrel’s ear when you were moving the stuff at back of unit. You never know what you will find hiding from view.

[@maryoconnell6503]

You can def sell that bed online. Those platform beds are expensive and it looks like you have all the parts.

[@maryclendenin8565]

BIG mistake on that loft bed setup....you can make some good $$ on it.

If you don't have kids and see a bunch of components stuffed into a storage locker you might not put 2 & 2 together. It's a hard sell unless he does a trial run of assembling it to see if it's all there and intact.

[@rebeccanichols1165]

That bedframe with the stairs will bring some nice money. Over 100.00. Great locker. You could easily make 200.00

[@johndolby6561]

That bed I'm betting you'd get $100 easily on marketplace. New that sells for $599. Made by Ashley I'm guessing. Plus it has the trundle

[@OrthodoxAtheist]

Actually, not $599, but even more expensive! Looks like Bed Kingz. Looking at the parts in the video here, it looks like something sold by Walmart for... $1,027.95. That's right, he's talking about burning/tossing $1,000 worth of bed. :D www.walmart.com/ip/Bedz-King-Stairway-Bunk-Beds-Twin-over-Full-with-4-Drawers-in-the-Steps-and-a-Twin-Trundle-White/42924526 Same price on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Bedz-King-Stairway-Drawers-Trundle/dp/B00KI3ALZI

[@crzy8angel]

Those dolls are porcelain. On Amazon they’re going from $35 - $80 a piece. You should look them up and see which ones you have. Could be worth it for you. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Super glue the ear back on that squirrel and sell it! And Salsa would like that big ole frog to throw around or sleep on. 😁 That bed is a good thing to sell as well. All in all a great locker!

[@raggedyann4372]

Cyn thia the boxes are trashed, might get a few bucks, nobody collects those dolls, unfortunately 🥴

[@sarahanderson8371]

Love locker clean out! Steps to a bunk or loft bed. Hope you keep it worth a bit. Keep the bins for your van to put stuff in.

[@vintiago]

I love the Ortiz picture. I was born and raised in Mass and lived there for 47 yrs before deciding to move here to Kentucky so we are huge Red Sox fans. If you put it up on EBay, I would be interested in that for sure.

[@momtrips6783]

The wooden boxes with the roosters painted on them are mid-century canisters and are moderately collectible.

[@JHMDEUCE]

The parts from that broken lamp are worth a few bucks.

[@fletch218]

As always, Taco, a great video. This was a great amount of stuff for $5. I often wonder how much research you do on the items you come across. For instance, the sailing ship print; will you research that at all? Ships are very popular. Also, how much of what you trash do you recycle? Do you check all the plastic kitchen junk for recycling? The loft bed? What will you do with that. Those things are soooo expensive. It seems to me you need to research even dumb stuff; it can introduce you to things of value you never knew existed. Remember, too, age and name brand are not the only things with value. If it exists chances are someone collects it.

[@thomassliders4770]

Good thoughts

[@rubycarson]

David Ortiz is known as Big Papi and was shot and wounded in the Dominican Republic a couple of months ago. He is well loved, and that print of him might be valuable.

Those wooden canisters are from the mid 60s we bought a set for my exes grandmother back then. Google and find real values for the bed and some other items I am sure you have at least several hundred dollars there in that unit.

[@Mrs.KatsCrafting]

what on earth? Those people must not have trash pick up and just stored what they couldnt throw away except those beds they go for high dollar here. the bed is up high like a top bunk and the desk fits under it for small space rooms. Its pretty sad that most of what they left behind belonged to their kids.

[@sharonnowlin2297]

Your $5 Storage unit will make you some money!! What you called boxes are old wooden canisters with roosters will sell good on eBay or maybe better on etsy. The kids paperback books should sell at the flea market also with the brightly colored frog. Do you put the unopened pack of razors and other stuff like that in a big box? I always did when I sold at the flea market and all of it always sold.

[@Rosebud830]

Do you get help to value items you find in Storage Lockers? I see so many items of value you dont even notice? There are Vera Bradley purses, cast iron pots, steps for bunk/loft beds, etc. Please dont throw away until to make sure what your items are!!!

[@maryluwhittle6366]

If you have the lids to the dovetailed wooden rooster cannister set, then I'd put it on E-bay. They are nesting cannisters, so you can put one inside the other for easier shipping.

[@momtrips6783]

Even without the lids I bet they'd sell -- and definitely worth bringing to the flea

[@barbfrank917]

If Paper and Moose was with you, she would have told you about the steps for the loft bed. I hope you didn't trash it.

[@wadehendryx7378]

Much better unboxing. You went to the bottom of each box. You actually showed more also. The box of knives, you showed those. I know they were nothing but we like to see what you get whether it's good or bad. Mainly it's going to the bottom of the boxes to see what's there. You never know there could be something at the bottom of the Box small enough not to see just by going through it real quick that could be worth big money. Everybody's interested in what's in the box is whether it be junk or good. Thank you much better. Love your videos. Would love to go on a trash or Treasure Run with you sometime. Not possible I'm in California.

[@lyricwritertoo]

I save a lot of “free” type cups myself. We are remodeling our retirement home. Have had all kinds of contractors come and go. I put them in the fridge with ice tea, lemonade etc. then they can take them to go and they are sturdier actually than solo cups or foam etc. and free! I saved a lot when kids young too. Oh and also trim them off as plant starters and double liners for small pots. I really need to do a “recycle upcycle” channel! I don’t hoard. I just reuse everything. I never buy containers, ever! Most all in my life is used. Especially wardrobe. I sew and paint to upcycle it. So no my storage unit wouldnt look like that.

There have been a few times I cringe when you say you don't want something, or will toss it, but really, you are doing pretty well. You seem to know what you are willing to spend your energy on. I'm looking forward to more of your picking and thrifting. Happy days!
