A discarded wedding ring was accidentally found in 20 tons of trash at a New Hampshire transfer station – making it the third ring in two years to be found in the same location.
The lucky find came after a panicked woman called the Windham Transfer Station last Wednesday to alert them that her wedding ring may have been thrown away, according to reports.
The woman told employees when her husband dumped trash at the station, what kind of car he was driving and what kind of trash was in the bag, Director of General Services Dennis Senibaldi told WHDH.

The transfer station crew then began working with the help of surveillance cameras.
“We were able to track when he was here, exactly what time he dumped the trash and where the trash in the trailer was,” Senibaldi told the outlet.
The trash they were looking for was “literally the first scoop into the trailer,” he said.

“That’s 12 feet down from the top of the trailer that we had to dig through to find one bag,” he told the station, estimating there were 20 tons of trash in the entire trailer.
The ring was found partially covered in red paint and on the floor after it fell out of its trash bag, WMUR reported.
“I grabbed the ring, took it upstairs, cleaned it for him, called him,” Senibaldi told the station. “He was heartbroken on Wednesday and more than happy on Friday.”

This is the third time in two years that a wedding ring has been lost in a bin before Senibaldi and his crew dug it up with the last time happening almost exactly a year ago.
He described finding the ring as being like looking for a particular leaf in a pile of leaves “because they all look the same.”
And while hard work and an eagle eye helped this time, timing also played a role.

“It was the last trailer that came out. So, they missed it in 15 minutes or so,” Senibaldi told WMUR.
“Had it been 15 minutes earlier, it would have gone into the incinerator.”
