Full time. One 3/4 ton diesel truck and a flatbed utility trailer. I have a shop on my property so I have a place to stockpile inventory, break stuff down, grade and weigh. I still keep my hands in my old business, but it's pretty much dead. I pass out cards and talk the business up around town, and so far the results for local stuff has not been too bad. Getting ready to go pick up a load of AL siding from a house remodel this morning. I will fool with
anything metal. Appliances, grills, auto parts, engines, transmissions as well as non-ferrous materials as well.
