Scrapping without a Pick-Up truck?

I have done some part time scrapping and when there was appliances then I would borrow a truck from a friend of mine. All I had to do was keep gas and oil in it and if it needed anything, I would tell him. The truck sat for months on end so I was at least keeping it running and lubed up. Occasionally I'd have to enlist the help of another friend. It was a gas hog tho, I'd put about half the load money in the gas tank (if it was tin,steel), cause it was a short bed. Not too many times did I have to turn down a load.



I now own a Ford Ranger with a 4 banger, it has the same size bed as the other one but will go to the yard on $5.00 worth of gas. But the Taurus is still my main pickup tool for a lot of smaller stuff.
