How do you say CHAMBERO in English?

"Yes, we're SCAVENGERS, and we have a battle cry of our own: SCAVENGERS, assemble!" In Guayaquil, a CHAMBERO is usually an unemployed person who searches in landfills or dumpsters for items or materials to sell later. Due to the high levels of poverty, there are many people who dedicate themselves to this activity. However,  Guayaquil is not the only place in the world where you can find CHAMBEROS, and they receive different names in other countries. In English, they are commonly called SCAVENGERS.
