The expression "one man's trash is another's man's treasure" is near and dear to one Pennsylvania waste management facility that bridges the divide between trash and treasure on a massive scale – collecting $10 million in lost change since its inception.
"What we have is a series of assorted materials," Rebecca Guardino, Director of Ash Processing at Reworld, told FOX Business' Jeff Flock as they sorted through a bin inside the facility on Monday.
"This is about the quarter-sized particles where we usually get… a little bit of hardware, but mostly quarters," she added.
