    scrap sources

    I don't see a lot of relevant sources for scrap being shared. I'd like to share some of my ideas, some have worked , some I will continue to pursue. I will give my five top sources and would enjoyed if you shared your experiences and what works and what doesn't. #1 for me curb shopping. I get a variety of items this way.#2 freinds/ family/ referals most of my e- scrap is obtained this way. #3 my garage door repairman. Simple I called him up he liked the idea he drops everything from motors to tracks to springs on the side of my garage a few times a week. I usually leave him thank yous that resemble a case if beer or a$10 dollar bill in an undisclosed read.#4 Contractors I have several freinds that work for home remodeling companies. I get mainly appliances this way. Some other odds and ends too. Piping wiring ect... #5 my full time job. I'm lucky enough to work in the service field if I'm at a homeowners doing work I'm very careful but I do offer to remove things for free. I've gotten everything from electronics to auto parts. I've tried all types of auto places, lawn mower repair around here with no luck as well as HVAC companies with no luck. What places have you found that work for you?
