Pedro Galicia stands beside his allotted storage area loaded with recyclables at the Sure We Can, a Brooklyn non-profit redemption center Thursday, Feb. 27, 2020, in New York. In one of the most expensive cities in the world, people who scour through trash might be viewed by some as homeless or drug addicts but there are canners who dispute that claim. They are called "bottle professionals" by some redemption centers employees who describe them as people who know by heart each recycling and trash pick-up route, who buy from other canners and who take the job seriously.
