    As much as the law must be upheld . It really will be upheld with me as I show up as a stranger ,no way they will trust me .
    I bet a regular scrapper could say just that
    --- Doing a clean out from a fire ...
    & if so, I bet have to sign documentation as such - - LIKE Freon items by me.



    I had 10 pounds and must of looked like fake scrapper out to bust them .

    This morning got out early and did manage to get 380 LBs of empty spray cans and truck oil filters from a municipal dumpster
    (yes mix trash) 4 sheriff vehicles drove by and paid me no mind. also found a - micro wav - projection TV . made $50 and have 25 lbs to start tomorrow . This yards name is called Blaze and I see they shred there metals on property.
    In life I want to make money with my skills as a scrapper and my skills as a painter . Scrapping is here but it is harder . all other work is of more abundance painting homes wall cover work have better opportunity's . The weather in Georgia is nice and kids who can pull A's can be a part of the Hope scholarship for collage
    ------------------
    The amount of copper brass and other metals that I find at my feet by me (up north) is unique but they pay less any way so I tend not to sell . CU #2 by me 2.26 here 2.80 they pay so well for coated wire that I feel good to sell as is .
    I like it here . I might just want to be away from the cold . -10 and zero for winter is not so easy and it's long - Nov to April
