What Are Dumpster Diving Discoveries in Saints Row?¶
Dumpster Divings are a type of Discovery in Saints Row, an optional, freeform, open world activity that typically rewards you with cash and XP when you complete it. Dumpster Divings, unlike Armored Truck events and Crimes of Opportunity count towards the completion of a region’s Discoveries when completed, and while this won’t increase the passive income generated by any Ventures in that region like completing Threats will, it does count towards various achievments/trophies that task you with conquering various regions.

How to Find and Complete Dumpster Divings¶
Dumpster Diving events are very similar to Drug Pallet Pickups, save less interesting in almost every possible way. They’re less numerous, they do not appear in clusters, you almost never have to engage in platforming to reach them… just find the markers, head to their location and you’ll find a glowing dumpster at street level beckoning you.
To complete a Dumpster Diving Discovery, just locate the target dumpster - as mentioned earlier, the glowing golden light should make this fairly easy in most cases. Despite the flavor text you’ll get after looting a dumpster, most of the time you’ll earn some XP and $2,000, which to be fair is a good amount of cash for such little effort.
On some rare occasions, however, you can also score unique items from Dumpster Diving. These treasures include an outfit made of trash, a unique weapon visual mode, the Recycler SMG (can be applied to all SMGs), and a Golden Garbage Truck, the latter of which comes in four parts. Find all four parts and you’ll automatically assemble the Golden Dumpers Truck, a [Sanicruiser] with a unique skin.
