College kids dumping stuff (particularly Ivy-leaguers, etc) is a great one. Various friends & acquaintances back East have found literal & figurative gold, dumpster-diving at the right moment.

Situation’s a little different here as part of an apartment complex. They’ll theoretically take care of it all (repair / replace) as long as I demonstrate that I didn’t let it get a bit out of hand at one point. Nuf sed on that.
