You must be a lot taller than I am. I jump up on the

in.
My favorite technique is to back my car up to the dumpster, pop the trunk
open, climb on my bumper then into the dumpster, and start sorting and
tossing the good stuff into the trunk.
A good number of the PDP-11 freeware tapes in the archives were rescued
that way :-).
