Ever wondered how much money you can make collecting 10-cent bottles and cans in Australia? I spent a whole day rummaging through public rubbish bins to find out — and let's just say it was messier, stinkier, and more emotional than I expected.
From suspiciously empty bins to a stolen pop-up collection point, I faced it all. But along the way, I also stumbled into a brand new job driving a skip truck at the local tip — and even got to hang out with some cheeky kangaroos digging through trash at sunset.
In this video, I take you on a raw and funny journey through Australia's Containers for Change program.
