    Smile Decent score from craigslist. Potential for more.

    Was looking on cl for a fridge for a guy i work with. Responded to an add (text) that said he had all his appliances for sale as he was moving to colorado. He texted back that the fridge was sold. I then told him that if he had ne metal, tv's, computers, etc. that he needed hauled off that i could do it for him. He responded that he had a couple of fenders and bumpers if i wanted them. I said sure and we set up a time for me to meet him. So tonight i went to get my stuff and ended up with quite abit more. Total haul: two fenders, two bumpers, working dewalt englo compressor, working delta compound miter saw, working dewalt belt sander, dell computer tower, hp printer, broken poulan chainsaw,broken mountain bike, several 4-6 ft sticks of 1/2" copper pipe, broken pop-up canopy, 10 5 gallon metal buckets and one broken windshield. all in all a pretty good pick for me. He also told me that when he moved into this rental house that there was a bunch of junk in the woods behind it and he would ask the landlord sat if he wanted me to haul it off for him. he said it was prob two truck loads of stuff. im pretty pleased with the way this played out.

    Sweet score man!
    Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.

    What is a broken windshield worth? Do you scrap glass?

    Worth nothing to me. I just took it to get rid of it for him. I find that hauling of some of there trash helps get callbacks. since we have a "community" dumpster its no problem gettin rid of a little trash.
