clearly not residents.
I hadn't realized locals were doing this? Is this typical? Not that I really give a damn (not like they strewn the stuff about) but its not something I ever saw in the previous places I've lived

Its called dumpster diving and is very common. Some people find great things that others throw away and make big money on it. They also specificly look for small pieces of furniture to refinish and sell. Also, you have the cheapskates who salvage everything. Its no big deal and done all the time
