    Thanks for sharing. The lawn mowers would be worth over $300 around here.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    A couple who hit me up from my ad on NEXTDOOR app and gave me a garage door opener and about 150lbs of scrap who live on my street. They texted today and asked if hauled off trash. I knew what she was refereeing too because I seen the pile when I was there. It was a little decent pile mostly vinyl siding and scrap 2x4s some aluminum flashing, a old heavy wood garage door. Normally I don't take on real junk removal jobs because I don't have the time or really the hauling capacity to do a real junk removal job. Plus getting into the landfill here where I'm located is a nightmare. Dumping a load could turn into a 2 hour thing because sometimes there is a very long wait to get in.
    But in this case I knew the amount of stuff would be small enough to just get rid of with my normal trash pickup spread out over several pickups. So I jumped on this one and did it for $60. I estimate that I also got about $20 - $30 in scrap value out of it if not more.
