Wow, is that a film processor? Looks like it was once expensive.

Noritsu V30SM - uses prepackaged Kodak "SM" replenishment chemistry for
C-41, so the operator usually doesn't have to do any chemistry mixing.
It will process two rolls of 35mm simultaneously or one roll of 120/220.
It's the next size up from the one I used to run.
I don't know what they originally cost, but you can buy a used one for
one to two thousand dollars now. They're a pretty good basic mini-lab
film processor as long as you do your scheduled checks and services and
preventive maintenance.
I don't know what building it's sitting behind, but dumpster appears to
have computer monitors, keyboards and other electronica in it. It may
have become defunct and need too many expensive parts to be economically
repairable.
Likely it will be one of the big box-shifters. You take something back
(printer/TV/camera) as faulty, they will put it back on the shelves,
once. Comes back again, it goes into the compactor. _Nothing_ is
repaired. Horrified me when I found out. I presume they claim a refund
from the manufacturer or suck it up.
If it were mine, I'd have stripped off every functioning part I could
before I set it out there.
Question for William Robb - What is the function of the building it was
sitting next to?
If it's the back side of a Walmart or something like, would you mind
looking inside to see if their photo-lab has new Fuji processors?
