toss-across collecting

A creative method of scavenging for discarded returnable beverage-containers along the road; it involves starting out from your house and walking along one side of the road and throwing any returnables that you find on that side across the road to the other side, so that you can then collect all the returnables from both sides of the road on your way back again; this eliminates your having to carry any heavy bags of containers "the wrong way", i.e., in the opposite direction from your home, where you want to transport all the containers for processing and bagging up for the redemption center.
