Eighner makes it clear that he is more comfortable scavenging from Dumpsters than he is from smaller garbage cans:
Going through individual garbage cans without scattering litter is almost impossible. Litter is likely to reduce the publics tolerance of scavenging. Individual cans are simply not as productive as Dumpsters; people in houses and duplexes do not move so often and for some reason do not tend to discard as much useful material. (27)
Justifying the avoidance of individual cans is another way in which Eighners essay displays a compelling logic of Dumpster diving.
