Lost and Forgotten Object Dumps (32 photos)

Landfills and giant heaps of trash have their appeal, but they quickly blur into a mass of indistinguishable waste. Eventually, it’s all just a mountain of junk.

But when a dump holds only one type of item, it transforms into something different — a graveyard. A resting place for forgotten things.

We’ve discovered graveyards of old TVs, telephone booths, ice machines, and even massive items like planes, trains, and cars. There’s even a graveyard in Japan for discarded kaiju monster suits.

In these Lost and Forgotten Object Dumps, old items find a final resting place, transforming what’s discarded into a haunting tribute to the past.
