I worked in retail. We had to put things in the dumpster before we could go back and get them and take them to needy families. Clothing retail was the worst. When They found out we were doing it they ordered us to take razor blades to the clothing. This was a Children's clothing store! We were careful and removed tags and so they could not be returned. They fired us so we went to the local big city news and in 7 months that store closed its doors. No one would shop there again. Food stores here are more assistance friendly as no one can return food, it is just put back in a dumpster.... Our stores donate to food banks!

yaya kelley you're so right!! My niece and I were just talking about that today!! I saw a whole bunch of stuff from Target come in and the Salvation Army was selling it for the same price as Target. Selling used cloths even for new prices smh I don't go there any more. If I have stuff to donate, ESPECIALLY clothes, I'll ask around If anyone needs them. I worked for this very well to do couple and she gave me a bag of like brand new maternity clothes and baby clothes, name brand expensive stuff and I rehomed it all, you would be surprised at how many people are truly appreciative to get really nice stuff like that, I know I am. Most everything I own is second and sometimes 3rd or 4th hand, I don't care.

I knew someone that worked in retail, they told me that they had to destroy everything with a knife & markers, open up all the food so people can't use or eat it. If they didn't do what they were told they would get fired. They then added the total amount up of everything that was thrown out and the store got to deduct it off their taxes. It happened daily. So much unnecessary waste. I wish there was a better way or different laws in this country not to waste things that are thrown in dumpsters. It saddens my heart. Especially now, there are so many people that are going without food and just trying to feed their family so they can survive. Glad you two are out there trying to make a big wrong a right in a kind way. You are good people with caring hearts. God Bless you both.

@@yayakelley7771 that's what I do. I stayed in a homeless shelter years ago but, they do the same to this day, they take what is donated, workers get to go through it first then what is left, they take to the store, that's part of that shelter and then the shelter residences get to go buy it. So I just find people that look like the stuff would fit and look in need and I give it away that way. That way I know it's going to someone in need.

Those dates are not expiration dates. Those are manufacturers sale by dates. Chips and canned goods expire any where from 1 to 5 years after those dates in fact on canned food if the can is not bubbled or leaking you can eat it up to 10 years. We as Americans are conditioned to think that if it has a date it isn't any good. In fact milk is good up to 2 weeks after date if kept at a 32 degrees

I worked for a school foodservice. You're right. We would order food on a tight budget and the manager could get it pretty close to zero waste on our end, but once you give the tray to a kid and they pick at one little piece then throw the whole thing away, there's nothing that can be done. Aside from bought supplies, we'd get free government commodities like frozen fried chicken. It was actually pretty damn good. Most kids don't like regular fried chicken these days. If it's not made from chicken gristle paste and formed into a nugget and sold by a clown, they don't want it. Into the trash it goes!

They Don't Have To Heat Them Up ..They Add Shredded Cheese ... Lettuce .... Choice Of Dressing ..... Serve Them With Veggie Sticks & Fruit Salad That They Make Freash... Then They Have Grilled Cheese sandwiches Also With veggie Sticks & Fruit Cups ... Or Grilled Chicken Pita Pockets with veggie sticks & fruit salad Or Hot Dogs & Once A Month They Do A Hot Lunch With A Local Resturant Like Pizza ( Your Child Gets A Personal Sized Pizza Of Their Choice Or Subs ...You Fill Out A Form & Pre Pay ..Then That Day It's Delivered .... They also Have A Brown Bag Lunch Program For Kids who Come From Low Income Families ... Lunches are provided for them ...Theres A Breakfast program like That Too & Mid Morning & Mid Afternoon Snack Provided To All The Children ....( The Lunches That Do Not Get Ised That Day Are Taken To A Local shelter For The Homeless & On Friday after lunch ...

Yes, it would be nice to have all of that food donated to homeless shelters and pantrys. But stores can’t. I know of lawsuits that have happened in which the store that donated the food was successfully sued by various individuals who ended up sick. So stores throw it out, with some locking it up because homeless crawl into the dumpsters, get hurt, and then successfully sue the store for not taking the precautions of locking it up.

You can wash and sanitize all of those clothes and someone can wear them. I remember wearing rags when I was growing up. Thos clothes look good. Everyone loves snack foo. Stores by federal law are to get rid of out dated food or take a chance of being fined or sued. Those carrots looked good and kids love snacks. They, the stores should give the food to church organizations to give out to the hungry. I myself have accepted food from the churches. Food that ordinarily is discarded. You two are doing a good thing. The meat is probably already spoiled anyway. Wish they wouldn't throw it away. You two should be actors you know. This seems like a regular reality show now.

In Maine our local food pantries accept donations like the just past date food. It’s usually still edible. Two of our big grocery store chains hannaford and Walmart do donate cakes breads etc...it’s made the food pantry so much better. It’s a disgrace these corporations waste all that food. Bless you two for going out of your way to do the charity the big stores can’t be bothered to do.

A lot of places are afraid to donate food for fear of lawsuits. If food is close to expiration then the chances of a L/suit is high.

Buy the time food would be donated it would be going bad. Who knows how long meat was in the dumpster and usually when stuff like that (especially meat) has gone bad then they can’t sell it. Chips arnt as bad. Walmart’s coolers dropped in temp a couple weeks ago and they lost $17,000 and when that happens there’s no saving stuff. All the back wall coolers except for meat had to be dumped. Milk, eggs, cheese, packaged deli meat like lunchables and sandwich meat, produce, juices lemonade.

I've tried to watch some other dumpster divers, but they spend way too much time looking and talking about every little item they get, I guess in hopes of getting their ratings up. You two on the other hand get in there, go through things, decide if it's usable and don't chit chat, then talk about it at home. SOOOOO much better. I think I've watched almost all of your videos just in the last week or so and completely enjoy them! I so hate the one store threw away the food! I started a pantry back in 2008 and would would have loved for the store to have donated the food. If they had gotten the lunchables to a program they could have put them in the backpack programs with pantries and schools! Such a waste. Keep up the good work and the donations!!

Under most health code laws, expired food items, damaged food items and perishable food items that have been returned to the store cannot not be sold, resold or donated. They must be thrown out. Think about this if you ever want to return a perishable item...the store is going to throw it out by law.

Where I'm from they won't even let the poor go through the trash or garbage they throw away. I guess they are afraid you might benefit from the stuff they cannot prosper from OR that the poor or needy might prosper from their trash. At one point I was gleaning and the people that was throwing it away saw me. Ever since then they started busting things up, they had a sledge hammer out there. I live in kentucky. So you already know.

I worked for a "club" that was tossing pallets of chicken,.. beef,.. because they over bought Big Time! I said why not donate it. "nobody want this stuff" I called a local (regional) food bank and was told, you have it we'll come and get it. From then on they donated food once a week. My last year there they donated 80,000 pounds of food, Because I made one (1) phone call! Of course after it went so well, the manager took credit for it! Got to love it right! At least it was not being thrown out any more.
