Man Lives Inside a Dumpster and Still Pays Over R$300 in Rent a Month – Lifestyle

Harrison Marshall, 28, went viral on TikTok by showing himself living in a dumpster in Bermondsey, south-east London. He moved there in February because it was the only option he had, still paying R$312 a month in rent.

The boy explained in a video on the social network that he wanted to live in the trash because he could not find any place to rent in the capital, London. He said, “People were getting hundreds of letters from one room… That’s when I started to think about the idea of ​​is it really possible to live in a dumpster?”

He also considered building a dumpster because of the devastating toll the cost-of-living crisis has taken on millions of families in the UK. “Nobody should have to live in a dumpster. For me to live in this area, that was the only option, and it’s crazy,” he explained.

Harrison paid just over R$2,500 to build the venue and showed off what the interior looks like in a video posted to social media. The trash room is decorated with his friends’ artwork, and the kitchen has space to store pots, plates, and cutlery.

His room, consisting of only a bed, is wedged between the kitchen ceiling and the garbage ceiling. Also, the guy has access to a portable toilet, but he prefers to shower at work or the gym.

Harrison said he had been given “a loophole to live in central London for little money”. He even revealed that the best thing about living in Dumpster is that it has “very friendly neighbours”. In addition, he enlists the help of some people in the neighborhood: “They bring me hot meals and home-cooked meals. Well, very well.”
