    Cleaned out my shop - caught the bug

    My knowledge of scrapping existed of leaving my scrap on the street for someone else to pickup.



    I cleaned out my workshop and decided to take a load of scrap to the yard for the first time now I'm hooked! Looking forward to see what I can learn and gain treasure out of others trash!

    At least you were not paying to dispose of these items. Probably helped a few people out with your scrap donations. You need to have time to scrap and you will make money. Some people break everything down some people sell as is dirty vs clean. Either way you will make some cash. Why would go to the dump and pay to get rid of shred items when I can get paid for them?

    Better than the dump!
