One man's trash is another man's treasure
The chair combo thing was called a gossip bench. When people had land lines, the telephone was put on the desk and people sat on the chair to talk.
People still have land lines
Great video and lots of good finds!I can't believe people throw so many reusable things away. You're right...donate them instead of sending them off to the landfill!
BUT if they donate everything, there'd be nothing for the curb shoppers!
That's an old furniture picking trick. You see any piece of furniture with drawers and you want it, but can't get it at the time, grab the drawers quick and then nobody will want it without the drawers and then you can go back and get it later :-)
2ndhanddaisy , wow you are an absolute genies wow that is a great idea well done!😀
Thanks :-) It pretty much explains why every time you see a nice piece of furniture on the road, it's missing the draws :-)
great idea
My neighbor was remodeling. He tossed solud wood drawers out the second story window. I got them, use them under my dresser and bureau for shoes. The arrangement looks nice and serves a purpose.
😂🤣
That telephone table is cool! My Grandma always had one.
You are an "old soul" Taco 😊 I love your ethics. Your parents are so lucky to have a son like you!
Hi, Taco that was a good pick up telephone & phone book chair I have the same here at my house use to be in my grandparents home many years ago also it had lamp on the table. Enjoy your videos, take care!
dude i found a 3 fan gou and i ddint even know what it was back then
Never a disappointing show ever!!!!!
All good dude!!!
Sweet find on the tools. I would love to have that telephone table. It was a cute one.
that is a 40's era telephone desk, very collectable
That chair/table combo is, I believe, a phone table. Put your phone on the table and sit to chat. Nice and old!
I've said it before and I'll say it again I love, love, love your videos. I just wish I could ride along in person. Hope you and Salsa have a great weekend.
The table with the chair is one of those antique phone chairs. I bet if you put that on eBay u could get some good money. Used before wall phones. We used them in the 40 and 50's.
Thanks for sharing your picking they are my fave. Loved the telephone table. 😻
Am i the only one who gets satisfaction when he takes away all the goodies?
The chair table is called a telephone table. It's antique
Hey what's up taco! I don't know how far into scrapping u get but those microwaves also have copper bars inside them if u take them all apart.. be safe and have fun. Keep the videos coming.
yea but microwaves are really dangerous on the inside
Thank goodness you took the gossip chair.
Good one.. I'm kinda binge watching your videos. Watching one with the snow reminds me it'll soon be coming here..lol.
You're right about donating things, I'd rather give people things/ donate than just throw it away.
I just sold my house after my husband died & bought a much smaller place & I took LOADS of stuff to places called ' The Lord's Cubbard '& 'The Lord's Locker'..they help people in need.
What the heck is with tossing those tools? And that telephone table was amazing!
Gossip bench - 1920"s 2x sold comps on eBay $80-100+. Good 2nd guess to pick up!
That's a phone table and the green desk you could've sold at the flea market. If it's furniture and it's fairly nice always grab it Taco, people love to find furniture to paint.
What's going on Taco!! 9:16 is a telephone chair. Your old radial dial phone would sit on top and your phone books would go inside. Sweet Happy to see you got the 2x's back...I may get a 3x! Peace!
And that phone chair is worth a lot more than you would think...
Brought back memories. We are showing our age. lol . My sister was pulling me around on a blanket, I fell sideways and smacked my front tooth on the leg of that sucker. Kindergarten photo that year I had a black tooth.
When he said no, nevermind...I started yelling at my monitor saying "no! don't leave that telephone table behind!" LOL Glad you changed your mind, Taco!
I was yelling along with you.
I think it's also called a gossip bench.
That chair desk thing is called a gossip bench. The phone was usually laced on the table part of it. I owned one once. Unique little items.
I was so scared you were gonna leave that awesome phone table behind!
Susan K. Me too!! Lol
I've been looking for the telephone table forever. And free in the trash. And in good shape. Wow!
Me too.
When I was slow with work years back my brother and I decided to see what the scrapping life was like. We had a 16 foot trailer and we set out the nights before morning trash pick up was scheduled in the neiborhoods here on Long Island. To my surprise we made a cool 200$ on average per night, which is a bit more than most employers would like to pay! That's for the 8 hours of pickup, maybe 1 hour sorting, and an hour to and from the scrap yard.
I would go through all of this if I were you never pass this up.
At 13:20 that's an antique telephone chair you don't see those anymore.
You should pick up antique furniture those are the rage.
That was a telephone seat that you grabbed and an old one. The chairs and the Duncan Phyfe table weren't bad at the first stop. Those metal baseboard radiator covers are nice to have if someone has dented or rusted ones. New ones cost a fortune. I was on a job and the prior homeowner left them outside and ruined them during a reno. New ones were over $1500 and they wanted me to fabricate some wooden ones to save money.
another good finds...that chair and table that are attached together are old my grandmother had one and she would use it to set her telephone on the table part and sit and talk on the phone :)
I believe the ratchet was from Montgomery Wards
I love the "do ta doo doo doo". You're such a happy man!
This is so nostalgic to me. I used to love doing this with my dad in the spring on junk day. everyone just puts anything by the road. So fun
I swear I get so hyped now every time I see people throwing stuff out thanks to this channel 😂
The chair combo is for phones and phone books.
That chair table combo is a antique phone table. Looks 50s
Oh I did not know that other than picking good stuff ..you do magic tricks, lol you went from a jeep in to your regular van in a split second. That was a good one.
Tools for the van!!! Great finds.
OMG. ...I would love to have that little conversation table that you found. That was a great find!!!!
Thanks for the video..Be safe!
You rock taco stacks. Keep living the dream!!!
The chair-deck combo is really an old telephone table.
LOL that chair combo as you called it is an antique and it is a telephone table.Used when we had the rotary phone-pre-wireless so glad I live in the south-no snow hardly ever. Love your videos
The chair table is an Art Deco phone stand. Really good shape, hope it gets a home!
Watching your channel during quarantine. It's amazing what people put out there. In Nevada they just don't do that. Good luck on your finds. Lucky guy
The microwave glass trays are great under plants, they protect the shelf but let light through, happy hunting!
Hi thank you for sharing I truly enjoyed the video🤗
The chair is a telephone chair! You would put your phone on top of the drawer and your phone books went in the cubby! I would make a killing if I live where you live brother.. haha
Yep. My grandmother had one of those chairs with a rotary phone sitting on it
That table chAir combo is beautiful
At 13:20 it is an antique telephone table. Phone goes on table phone book on shelf and you have a place to sit down when you were having an extended conversation.
I love that chair that you just said no and then you grabbed I want that chair
Like your videos so I finally subbed.
Question: How old is Salsa?
New to your channel. I'm really enjoying it! It's a side of picking that I'm unfamiliar with. Glad to see someone doing scrapping, garbage picking videos!
Yes, the handled metal piece is to adjust your camper once at the campsite. Once trailer is off the vehicle, you can fine tune the parking and find a good level area to camp.
Lucky! You got some good speakers!
Great finds some of those items good enough to fix up and sell like the wood furniture.
What u called a chair combo is actually from at least back in the 50-60's as a telephone chair. The side table attachment is where the phone usually would be. 😊
I used to live in a really nice apartment complex. I couldn't tell you how many times I pulled things from the dumpsters and donated to thrift stores or gave to friends and family. Oh yeah, kept a few things as well.
The table was Duncan Phyfe, and the chairs were matching lyre back chairs. I woulda’ bought ‘em.
That chair combo is a phone desk. They use to put their land line phones on those way back when.
that is a super cute gossip bench. It's made to hold a telephone book in the cubbie and the phone on top. Obviously from back in the day when people would make calls from their landlines.
Boy you are getting a beating about the telephone table! Lol! I was out shopping the other day and saw some Pyrex and thought of you!
Love the telephone table chair
We call them Gossip Chairs/Bench Yakkity Yak : ) Look'm up on ebay, your's worth 75 but could quick flip for 30/40 easy at swap. Good pick'n day with the Roll around trailer jack too!
I agree with you on the press board and have agreed with you every single time, but I loved that desk. Desk come with no drawers lately... I would of given you a lot.😥
Dumpster diving ! The things people throw out
wow nice world! and i've been hunting for one like that - whoa gossip bench chair with built on table
It's cold in Queensland Australia churches too and watching you in the snow, Brrr.
Its called a telephone table and the drop leaf table is also a good seller as well
This is not just garbage picking it's shopping, I did that found some great stuff 👍😍🤩You're subscribed
That was an old phone desk. This is so fun to watch. I miss doing stuff like this.
Beautiful👍😊great job..
Great commitment in inclement weather.
That's why bring truck. Also also invest automatically wire stripers so does that TV wire. Its it pay 100 fold
That's a telephone table, probably 40s or 50s.
At 9:15 that chair combo is really called a telephone desk,
I’m glad we don’t really get snow hear in Australia I could see myself slipping over
The chair combo is an old telephone desk/seat.
Omgosh! I would love those chairs! 😍
Taco.. I loved the telephone chair/table. Very cool old find.. PJ x
We are checking out the t-shirts for sure
Those telephone chairs are desirable antiques
@ 8:55 what u found is a scanner with a light fitted cover design for scan photography negatives and diapositives, it's special informatic stuff, if it works, u can get roughly 25$ easily.
have you got a carpenter to call about great wood, like that table base.
Love trash picking day, never know what you're gonna find
It’s called a gossip chair! Great find!
Taco, there's an old saying ( You got to strike while the irons hot) if you don't grab it when you first see it someone else will!
That table and chair thing is an old telephone table. I would LOVE to have it!
Yeah, the metal trailer hand crank is for a tent trailer.
That gossip bench is very pretty! Nice piece!
I think you may be interested in my home town if Marietta Ohio. One spring day a year, everyone puts out their usable items they no longer want. It was one of the high points in my mother's year. If it's metal scraps only, it might not interest you
It is called a gossip bench. The telephone goes on the table and you sit and gossip. Lol
We never have people leave stuff like that on curb. I wish there were storage auctions close by.
Well, by now you know that odd looking chair is a phone bench. I could sell that for about $125 in my antiques booth. It always stuns me that you can't sell the furniture you find (like the fabulous chairs and table). It would probably pay for me to drive there from Florida, rent a U-Haul and bring back the furniture you leave behind. Thanks for sharing, Taco.
telly table great find..
Glad you pickt up the telephone table with chair . I was like. Yes. Take it...
Vintage telephone chair!
At about 9:10, that is called a 'telephone chair'. They used them with landlines to set the phone on, and store the phone book. Even before phones could be installed in any room in the house :)
The chair combo is a writing desk
