dad says ...

That if i have a good rest of the week at school i can have two appliances out of the basement what should i take washer/dryer or water heater or maybe the old stove?

It depwnds on what you plan on doing with them. For reselling i would most likly take the washer dryer if they still work and are in good shape. If you scrapping i would take water heater and washer. If you plan on ebaying stuff the washer dryer if they still work id strip and part it out. So it really depends on your goals. But this is my opinion others may have differant views and experiances. Also consider your capabilities space and timelines etc.

Negotiate, two weeks for all four.

from all- i think the stove would be the heaviest

stove and washer

Overwhelm him with your efforts at school. He then may help you cleanup the basement and have all of the scrap for your hard work. My best education (IMO) came from working with my family.

Like AFmedic said... Look at resale possibilities first and then go scrap. Like everyone else said ... DO GOOD in school and eventually buy and run your OWN scrap company so we can all say.... Hey, I remember hunterscrapper when when....

All us dads are just looking out for you...
