How much of that was non-ferrous?
Hmm, what's the biggest fish you ever caught?
At min your at 40000 yr in scrap why work 6 days a week for 10 hr lube tech
Tater that sounds just like my day.

KZ, that's not that hard to do. I did 300 tons of appliances last year (600,000 pounds) working part time.
Where in skippies sake do you all find that much appli/metal glad to hear you do anyways. My flatbeds down till I get her legal
Commercial accounts for me.
What kind of commercial accounts like apartments. I would have to get a bus licence and cards, flyers and junk first
Lets see 10.5 hr in the shop for business, then 8+ after the doors close to get loads ready for tomorrow, I am lucky to sleep 5 hrs a day. Speaking of which dinner is over and I can get a double load in before noon tomorrow.
Well you guys are some busy dudes...I never considered myself lazy but now I'm starting to wonder.
scrapping supports my fishing habit, when i am not fishing for a living.the rest of the time i pull net 14 hours a day and then go cast a pole for 30 min or more.
Really not that hard to haul 400 ton a year but when your also working 6 days a week 7 to 5 well I'm pretty pleased with that. Hoping to start a legit biz and leave the mechanic work to someone else. Some day soon I hope
Wake up go to work, I have s*x with my wife whenever I want.Quote:

visit the kids.
work D*MN hard , likewise, sometimes not much, because what I've learned.
Visit with my children.
I doubt I could work a full-time job myself anymore, unless it paid D*MN well anyway.
I drink too many beers too in the day, bad habit.
I quit that for about three weeks ,but it was boring, un fulfilling, so I bought some more beers again.
Soon my business will become HUGE!!!
But soon ALL THE WORLD WILL BE MINE TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
God Bless you!(I pray, amen) (got to go for now:( )
Tater where are you getting all that metal dont worry I live 1500 miles away

How do you PM

Alright thanks I sent a test
I hauled 17 tons of file cabinets over 2 days. I can see where it wouldn't be that hard to haul 400 tons a year. Acquiring that much might be another story.
I know consider the dry spells, weather delays, many of my picks on 6 miles down dirt roads, equitment break downs and all the other stuff that can go wrong during the year and I'd say its pretty darn good. Also build pick up bed trailers too. Torn down two trailer houses also last year, completely demo em all. Not to mention the copper and radiators,acr , and parted out least 6 vehicles this and hauled many more off complete minus radiators and any other gravy parts.
