What goes in your trash can is legitimately no longer yours. Constructive possession has been voluntarily surrendered, otherwise trash pickers could be arrested for petty theft.

I think it's really pretty simple, is the trash on your private property? No warrant no checkee. Is the trash placed out on public property, sidewalk, parkway or street? Fair game

Can someone go through your recycle basket and pick out the aluminum cans to sell? I’ve had it happen to me.
