YOU THROWING THAT OUT?? Trash Picking Ep. 174

[@KeynEyeFlips]

I believe that table is porcelain enamel top not Formica. Such a great find!

[@earthangel6480]

EARTH ANGEL. Mistake not grabbing all those Christmas items; you never know what old ornaments may be mixed among them! Always can donate them if nothing! 👍🥰

[@jilldavidson2204]

I really enjoy you internal dialogues about furniture, they make me laugh because much as the entrepreneur in you says "takes up too much room etc etc" you have such a good instinct for what is interesting and individual which comes to the surface. Don't let that good taste and feeling you have for it, be too easily suppressed. You have what we call 'the eye' for it, which not everyone who sells old furniture has. I wish for your sake there was a 'mid-century vintage' specialised market every few months in your area. You would clean up! Keep up what you are doing, and don't worry about what the watchers in the street think. Love your channel.

[@margretbjornsdottir3444]

Hi Tacos, I find it so fascinating getting older WOODEN furniture and making it beautiful and useful again. It’s fun to be watched and a lot of of us are watching you. You got nice things thanks for the lovely ride Margaret n Iceland

[@RibbitHopX]

That table is great! My grandma had one. The top was porcelain on metal. She used to roll out her pie dough on it.

I love it when communities work together to help each other.

Awesome furniture finds. Happy you went back for the old cabinet - yes, it has the look!

[@bonniemoore4056]

That cabinet is at least 75 Years old my Grandmother had one when i was growing up .

[@dianegardner2029]

I sooooo want that table and cabinet. Bet the shipping from PA to Michigan would be a bit much. Oh well...glad you saved them.

[@LoriHakaMyHeartCries]

That stand is for a bird cage. Renee would have gone through those boxes of Christmas decorations. Y'all should go together! You can help a sister out!!🦋

[@pamspash1901]

I am pretty sure the shelf unit (without drawers) is the top to the “table” you picked. Anyone else see it? Thanks for the great (as always) vid. ❤️

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

That’s what I thought too. Great to use as a planting table, you can have pots on the shelves and if you spill water, the table can take it, being that it’s metal covered... 😊

[@psmith-kk3ex]

I agree. I don't think it ever had drawers. I think it had maybe two side by side doors.

[@peggysmith3985]

don think they go together as the top is a bit too big for that table

[@bonniemoore4056]

@@peggysmith3985 The finish on the table is not called formica that he keeps calling it, the top is enamel and that table is at least 75 years old.

That framed poster was Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, James Dean and Marlon Brando in their heydays.

You should always take those old wooden shelves because they are so sturdy. You could use them to give yourself more storage in your garage. Next time the guy leaves things on his back porch for you offer to help him finish cleaning out the house. It looked like he threw away many nice things.

[@lisagrafton2529]

That white cart thing "looks like" what hairdressers use to store curlers and supplies. It rolls to where they're working at the time.

It is ironic that it bothers when people are watching you and yet here you are on youtube. And yes, we are watching you as you work hard. Your effort and work ethic are appreciated.

[@melindalewingellis1923]

Taco it’s a rake ! It’s a leaf rake. You rake them up and grab them also. That is a wooden cabinet no drawers.

[@SynzTheHobbit]

Correct! Those grab-it type rakes came out in the 80's or early 90's? Also the cabinet thing is a hutch meant to sit ontop a kitchen chest of drawers, more than likely.

[@milliemarky4464]

Yes, TS, it’s a leaf rake; you push forward the handle, lay the big circle of the rake over your leaves, then pull the handle back to pick them up. They cold on QVC I know & were not cheap. I got mine at a yard sale & it works pretty good...

[@mountaingirl1797]

Cabinet looks handmade‼️And you can always just hang a mirror above a dresser it doesn’t have to fit on it👍🏻

[@amandagray8519]

That mirror with the dresser arms on it at the last stop he could have put on that old dresser an made a beautiful piece

[@seakins1001]

[@lillchief]

The white stand on wheels is a portable beautician caddy, for moving rollers, bobby pins and tools from different chair stations,

[@shadesofidaho]

Little dresser at 3:50 is an old commode. Chamber pot goes in the lower side cabinet. They usually held a wash bowl and pitcher on top and some if not most had small mirror on harp type stand.

[@howardwillison8508]

The chrome stand on wheels with the big plastic tray is a beauticians stand. We had to get one for my daughter when she went to cosmetology school.

[@eliciaburton4862]

The shelf you loaded last I think is an old, very old pie safe without the wire and doors. Could be cleaned up good pick it's an antique for sure

[@rhondaedblom250]

Love the enamel top kitchen table. I have an old green and cream colored one my parents gave me years ago and I just love it. They are almost indestructible and very functional. Great pick.

[@frenchpizza9725]

[@rebeccanichols1165]

So glad you picked up the old pieces. If I lived close to you I would be there in a heartbeat to get it.

[@kayspence759]

[@maryoconnell6503]

You can put chicken wire where the glass used to be and sell it for good money! Easy to do for your friend.

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

But there are no doors which it would have, had glass used to be there. This one is just an open shelf unit, as it is, but meant to be on top of the table. Great planting table! 😊👏

[@digicthus]

I would've grabbed all of those wood planks where you picked up that condenser. Not sure about out in PA, but here in MI, that stuff sells for at least $5 a board. More if it has aged paint on it like red barnwood. Cheers!

[@digicthus]

@@pamelafisher1986 that is the only frustrating thing about watching Taco sometimes. I really wish he would educate himself a bit more on saleable items and maybe less focus on scrap steel.

[@dennisleinart7683]

Was thinkin that one wood plank is worth more than all the metal he picked up.

[@digicthus]

@@dennisleinart7683 Yep. It's easy to get tunnel vision when you're out picking though. He knows for sute that he can sell the steel, the rest is all maybe can sell. It's a personal preference and all areas are different on what does and doesn't sell.

[@patriciasheehan5089]

I've seen those picker things on QVC. They sold it as a leaf picker.

[@veronicamorgan8103]

The shelf unit that you went back for, looks like part of a pie safe. Very good score there.

[@julesiou12]

You got some great pieces of furniture there. Love the bread tin too. Doesn't matter about the lid it's still usable. Brilliant finds!

[@mariettadennis2415]

Porcelain top kitchen table- it’s good! Take the armoir as well.

I'm with you on the old top - I had one that I painted blue and put it on a wooden bottom and put my dishes in a while back. Good job!

[@kaseythomas9646]

Even if it's cooler and the humidity is up I really sweat when I'm working. And you're exerting a lot more than me!

Your could use little metal corner brackets with short wood screws to secure the top of the dresser. You would have to take the drawers out to do it. Great finds!

I really like that old shelf unit thingy. Glad u went back for it taco ❤️

[@kyrad6543]

The enamel top table probably comes from the 1930s. That green was really popular then. The enamel top sat on top of the frame to make it easier to move and was not fastened permanently. // The shelves could be the top part of a Hoosier cabinet. Very cool finds. // FYI coke takes off rust. Generic coke works too.

[@loriacton1303]

So glad you went back for that wood piece really cool

[@JimForeman]

That black box is an army foot locker from before ww-II. Best thing I ever found at a garage sale was a stack of aircraft avionics, the lady said she thought it was a CB Radio of some sort, said it was left in the attic by a guy who had rented her house. Said she'd take five bucks for it. Being a pilot, I recognized it as what we called a "full sack" dual Nav-com radios, ADF, DME and a transponder, all made by King Avionics. I paid her and was walking away when she pointed to a box and said, I think that goes with it. Turned out to be the four instruments that went with the radios and a full wiring harness. I sold it to a local avionics shop for $4000 and he probably doubled his money on it.

[@shannonsmith924]

Heh I don’t think you live in my area but we always put out weird stuff in the trash when doing big cleaning projects. Old stuff and stuff from maintenance like full sinks and such. I guess you’re one of those people that would pick up that stuff. Totally thankful for people like you than enjoy doing that sort of thing.

[@janecharlton6780]

The rustic look , my mother's formica kitchen table is almost 60 yrs old and still in fantastic condition. Great day picking Taco .

[@daisyday7610]

One day, when you decide you’re not wanting to be driving around and lifting things you may decide to refinish or repurpose furniture and then list it and sell it.

[@marshacrom6206]

The kitchen table is called a "porcelain" top. It is like the "porcelain" signs metal with a baked on enamal coating. The shelving is from an old kitchen cabinet definitely a good primitive piece. I would have grabbed both too.

[@robinw7193]

I saw a small snowman blow mold in one of the Christmas boxes! Too small for outdoors but looks cute in your house by the fireplace!

[@sammierunner1328]

The black box on the porch is a footlocker, back in the open squadbay days we had a wall locker and a footlocker.

[@rickeydonald4756]

Made me sad he put all those usable items in that dumpster. There are so many of the poor and homeless that can not afford to shop even at thrift stores. We have to stop this waste! Another depression will teach some difficult lessons though! I hope we learn before then.

[@rickeydonald4756]

I take all my unwanted clothing to our St. Vincent de Paul store. They sell clothing for 25 cents each and $5 bag sales. They use that money to fund one of the 2 local food banks and partner with another church to provide overnight shelter for the homeless. I know where their money goes to work in my community. This is the way real charities work!

[@wmrphotography7349]

I’m glad you took that porcelain top table. My grandmother had a few of them. I would love to have one or two.

Hi Taco and Salsa! You done a really great job today. You found some interesting things. That white thing that had more than one self and departments. Was a beauticians tray. It also has wheels on it so it can roll wherever they want.
