    Yup , Having true scrap knowledge is important . The few police that have interviewed me , did seem curious about scrap concepts . I gladly gave a lecture .

    remember pjost the scrap area in this case is the dumpster . . From there truck to the dumpster. me being in the dumpster is pure courtesy on there part ,
    Since I work for a trash company . I am quite sure the driver of roll off , dumps load and thats all . But at the dump some one might actually grab some of the easy metals . still I am sure not with the detail that I pursue .



    Guys I will tell you this when I am in work mode and I am removing trash from my collection pickup truck to main truck that compresses .
    I see it and I cant keep up
    - Can's - Can's - Al , Tin -
    Resources are wasted
    Even I a consummate scrapper can't keep up .
    Trash Trash Trash it's just to much' - I smell of it - Maggot juice - grimy
    often those little critters get on your arms pants I am invading there world
    I can't wait for winter and NO MORE MAGGOTS

    I save plenty like appliances and still much gets passed me
    I know its a bit off topic , But I can say what we scrappers do find would of most likely end up being buried

    I heard California has a system of scrap recapture and trash used as fuel from methane to actual fire to make electric .The term chimney smoke scrubbers

    A key element in converting trash to safe fuel . Trash is truly a wasted fuel resource in way to many locals
