i moved recently. as i was gathering my belongings i got all my garbage items i've collected over the years and put them in two big cardboard boxes. on the boxes i wrote in big black letters - GARBAGE. so i go to work and i come home to find the movers have put the boxes next to the dumpster under other assorted trash items. this is mostly my fault. the movers looked like country fans, so i should've known that they would think that garbage meant "throw this away". thank god it happened on a rain - free sunday or my things would've been destroyed and/or gone. i should've just wrote "nickelback" on the boxes and they probably wouldn't have even touched them.

I think I would have shit myself . Losing my collection would be like losing a member of my family. They may only be material possessions; however, I treasure them dearly. I am glad that you found the box before it was too late.

Don't worry. Had it not been for you writing this post, I would have done exactly the same thing when I move in a month's time. I think I might mark the boxes 'Music memorabilia' instead now...

ahaha, they must have thought you were crazy...packing up your garbage to take with you LOL. That's true! Who the hell would pack their trash up in a moving box and label it neatly? ;D Thank God you got the boxes back before the sanitation department got to them. That was a close call. My heart stood still for a second when I started reading your story. Can you imagine losing your most prized possessions that way? Glad your move went well otherwise!
