Last week, one Oregon man misplaced thousands of dollars in savings. Luckily, he was able to recover it — hundreds of miles from home.

On Thursday, the Ashland man made an urgent call to a recycling plant in Humboldt County, California, after learning that one of his family members had accidentally recycled a shoebox where he had stashed $23,000 in cash,Luckily, one of Wise's employees, Nick Page, discovered the money while he was working, and the plant's team managed to return the cash within two days.The man had recently earned the cash by selling his RV and a truck.

Prior to ending up at the plant, the box was transported hundreds of miles by truck from Ashland, Oregon, to Samoa, California.
