People shouldn’t think “bandits”.🏵 I would say “dumpster diver”, ☂”scavenger”, “🚲junk person”, 🥗”rag-and-bone man”, 🥡”waste picker”, 🍇”trash picker”. These titles are from different parts of the world. For me title should be 🛒”recycle selectors”! They take what we don’t want any more, even though it is still good to use. Or new title 🖍”recycle choosers”!🔦

Oh, thank you Jordy. I think it comes from years of being a therapist. 🙂
