When I was a kid, we used to bike to these newly housing development and we would take their used woods from their dumpster and we would build stuff with it.  So proud when I was able to build a dog house for my dog and build a treehouse to play in. 

Dumpster diving was still legal but I would not do that again.  Even if you dive into their dumpster, it is still grounded for trespassing and is frown upon.

Don't see an issue with that because they're going to trash those scraps anyways...
