There is a cable network company dumpster that is less than 2 blocks from my house that has provided me with a lot of wire, steel, and receivers that are mounted on the dish for free for years. Last week I noticed that there the wire has been very limited and no steel or receivers at all. I stopped tonight after work to try to talk to a worker and find out what had changed. He said that the company was now recycling all steel and receivers. Though I was still more than welcome to still take all the scrap coaxial cable I wanted. Gee whiz! Thanks!
Can't understand that they are recycling now. For years they have watched me pick from that dumpster knowing that I was making money on their waste. I probably can't compete with the steel prices but trying to figure out what I can offer for the receivers.
This is like the fourth company that I have been getting free scrap from for years. I have always asked for permission to pick. Though I've learned that as soon as you show interest in wanting something they wanna get paid for it and it's always a unreasonable price.
