    Back of my truck.

    So here is the first of what I hope will be many loads that ride in the back of my truck.


    Not a lot to look at, nothing really cool just some bits and bobs, a few odds stuff, a computer shell or 4. I looked at it and was thinking "meh".
    At the least I would get to meet the people at the yard I'm going to use and get some gas money for the trip, only a 22 min drive so no real loss.

    Get to the yard learn what to do and head to the shred drop off point. Seen some cool stuff out in the piles thinking like a real scrapper going "thy forgot to cut the cord there, O thy take tv's thats cool...thy did not take the copper out of it!" Learn a bit about my yard, like printers can have the plastic on it! Now if I can only get the gold contacts with out a hammer or 15 min of break down. Any way.

    I drive back on the scale and look at my "empty" read out, not to bad got my slip took it in side and got this,




    I was like "WHAT THE F%^&?"
    It was just small bits and stuff. I know I had some heavy stuff in there, like lots of the dividers you find in metal cabinets but 600# of stuff! Just had to say there was a smile on my face.

    So there you all go my first run no longer a scrap virgin, sold my self and I liked it!
