An indoor dump. How novel.
The inside of this building is cavernous, dark, and damp when the misters are going. If it weren't for those lovely jets of water hurglin' and spurtin' it would also be unbearably hot and the stench would send you to your knees.
Down the center of the building, and the northwest wall, runs a pit, about two and a half cubits deep. People back their vehicles up to it and dump their stuff in and can watch with glee as the very large earthmover smashes your erstwhile family heirlooms into oblivion, almost like a Roman Gladiator game.
Except your old dad's old baby carriage and grandma's tacky collection of JFK memorabilia doesn't really stand any kind of chance.
