It made a huge difference in the quality of my life. Without it, I would have been living in a bare apartment, without even a refrigerator for what little food I had. I was very thankful that people were discarding good stuff!

When I was new to Japan and flat broke, I needed some things I could not afford. They had a special day for getting rid of unwanted large items. People were throwing away good stuff. I got a refrigerator, small boom box, futons and a bicycle in one trip. I moved them into my apartment right away and was pretty much set. I afterward went out a couple more times and completely furnished my apartment with what I found, for free. Yes, people do throw away good stuff, usually because they are updating something.

I have seen people throw away so much stuff that’s still has more life to it and it’s a shame if there are people going without when others are dumping stuff
