Nice Find!

Hello Mr. Pot, it's Mr. Kettle. Looks like you're getting it done, but as you pointed out in my thread.



Careful you don't RUIN your truck. Let's just keep doing what we do - finding scrap...

Just a quick update - took my second haul in this weekend. Took in some radiators, aluminum and stainless. Trying to clean up some of the "stores" to make room for spring cleanup items. A couple...

That's terrific! I wish you success in the battle against this evil enemy.

Welcome. I'm not into bimmers - but loved the one in the movie The Transporter.

You're correct - I should be able to score more. My goal this year is to double last year. My first load last year was on 4/13, first load this year 3/14 so exactly one month ahead. Plus this load...

Thanks. Sideboards are a must with the short bed. They don't win any style points but can't be beat for functionality.




Ah, it's not who's sitting beside me, but what is riding from my rear...

Being a part-time scrapper it takes me a while to accumulate a truck load. I break everything down as far as I can, haul the steel in, and for now hoard the rest. This haul included 2 hot water...

I would be happy with that load. I scrap on my way to and from work in a Chevy Cavalier. It takes time to build up a load and then I haul it in with the truck. My goals is to always take in $100...

Welcome. I am also a second generation scrapper (albeit we were both part-time). Now I take my kids with me when I go to the yard. They love watching the machines and train go by, but they...

Sorry for your loss. It's amazing how attached we get to our pets and how much the become a part of our lives. We got a kitten almost a year ago - and while I was reluctant to the idea the wife and...

Awesome! I wish you continued success and hopefully at some point you will even be able to stop vaping. As you can probably tell from my screen name and avatar I have a "special" hatred toward...

Praying for a speedy and complete recovery.

Also, if you have not done so already, make contact with the property owner. I have considered this in the past and found that the property was owned by the railroad (CSX) and they would not give me...

Voodoo,

Sorry to hear about the relationship troubles and hope everything works out in the end. I second the notion about looking into a storage unit, then you don't have to store the tools at...

Welcome from Western PA. I have only been a member of this site for about a year, the information here is invaluable. Good luck with all your scrapping endeavors.

That's a good price on cans. I only got .50 a pound the last time I took cans in. I'm looking forward to the spring weather here so I can pick up cans. I like to go out on Saturday morning and...

Hello, also from Western PA (Westmoreland/Allegheny County).

It may be cooled via thermoelectric cooling. I pick up a small wine cooler like that.

Awesome deal, will pay for itself in no time.

Good luck with the pickup. I know it's only a tv, but like mentioned above ask if they have anything else, and give them ideas, old sweeper, lawn mower, lamp, etc. I like to do this to get them...

Nice score. I hope to start getting more computer equipment for break down. Ideally, I would like to focus on e scrap in the winter and metals in the summer.

It initially sounded like they are just trying to stop people from taking items out of the recycling bin. I never take items out of marked recycling bin's when I curb shop. What got me was this...

I would have went to the door and asked, but I do my route at 5:00 a.m. on my way to my day job. If I didn't take them, the garbage collector would have before anyone was even awake yet. The...

Doing some curb shopping I saw some steel patio chairs and decided to grab them. There was a box on top of the garbage can and I noticed baseball cards inside. I grabbed the cards out of the box...
