Trash gangs were informal groups that emerged in urban areas, particularly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, consisting of individuals, often children or young adults, who scavenged through refuse for valuable materials or items. These groups played a significant role in waste management by recycling discarded goods, such as metals, paper, and bottles, which they could sell for a small profit. While they provided a means of survival for their members, trash gangs also faced social stigma and were often associated with poverty and crime.
