the dumpster itself is not actually magic cause they change it out when full, it's the location, highly classified blackwater spec ops super secret underwater inverted location, right next to the scrap metal bin can't miss it.
They throw some not so nice stuff in there too, ask me how I know

When I was a young Soldier I was an avid dumpster diver.......I accumulated a lot of tools and stuff (some that I still have) that would have gone to the landfill if I hadn't liberated it.
I still can't pass one without giving it a quick once over to see if something in there needs rescuing.
When I arrived at Fort Benning in 1985 there was an old gentleman that actually had an official permit to dumpster dive for aluminum cans. When I met him he was driving an old beater pickup truck with a chicken wire cage on it.
When I left in 1990 I saw him and he was driving a much newer Ford 4 wheel drive pickup and pulling a gooseneck trailer with a wire enclosure on it.
He had paid for the whole rig (and made money) diving for cans.
Soldiers drink a lot of beer.

That truck and the dumpsters have served me well Wreckerman...and thank you for your avid support while stationed here. I got more cans from your quarters than any other location on post!
Isnt that " Fraud, Waste, and Abuse "? If only the tax payers knew what all gets hauled off to the heap.
