I think they are just trying to catch up with the rest of the world. 20 years ago, if you can believe it, I remember finding about 40 Aluminum windows that someone dumped in the woods- they were like tires back then- You'll almost NEVER find a score like that again in the US today!

Believe it or not, I've seen the time I had to PAY someone to haul a junk car away. Seems like I remember paying around $50.

Ahhh.... refreshing. We need to start a new thread.. something like "The Scrapping Good Ol Days"
It was a time of finding things we now need to fight for
Things people would Pay to get rid of.. now we have to pay to get them/it

Heck the most recent has to be the e-waste boom. I remember people were so willing to get an out of date paperweight out of their way.. now people think that computers have gold bars inside them.. I still get a few but it sure isn't like it used to be.. on many "scrapable" items!

I remember walking under a massive train bridge ans came across a huge pile of smashed computers. Kids would throw them off and watch em go SPLAT. If only i knew about e waste then. Coulda cleaned up the trails and made some cash! Ugghh..

Guys really I need my first car and I want something that runs, and drives great but for FREE! lol

Nothing we can really do to help you get em for free.... Its just luck. I have yet to get a complete free car, and iv been at this over 2 years. Theres no trick to getting free stuff. And You cant force or talk people into hading over a car for free. It all depends on what they wanna do. I mean you can try and tell them the costs to dispose of cars, time, etc. But people arent dumb these days. Good luck

It was like 3 truckloads of aluminum and this was back in like '05

I'd LOVE to see a HQ stationwagon thats two cars wide & two cars long.

You could fit six wide in the front seat & six in the back (with two on top...) another six behind that & full the rear with emptys. (or a Boot boy or two)

We have a Bogantown in NZ called 'Gore'. "Its the arse-hole of the world" Quoted Mick Jagger. Theres two sorts of people there, 'Gorons' & 'Gorks'

'Gorons' mostly work on cow farms pulling tits & drive 70's & 80's cars up & down the main street while getting drunk & yelling & grunting at people.

The 'Gorks' watch them.
