I have had people call me a bum or a loser for digging in dumpsters. One guy changed his tune real fast when I pulled out a near new 4 drawer Craftsman toolbox!
I have read that the PCB filled transformers are usually painted black or a very dark grey. The normal light grey ones you see should be filled with mineral oil.
Doubt you could sell many near me. I see them in the free section on CL all the time. Hell I just bought a 20gallon at a yard sale for 5 bucks to replace my 10 gallon.
Porn. Lots of porn. Seems a lot of people junk cars without checking the trunks.
The yard I go to also has a 6' long belt of live .308 blanks for a machine gun. Somebody had tossed them in with...
That is awesome. They certianly dont build stuff like that anymore.
Could also be a massage table. But those usually have a hole in them so you can lay face down. Hard to tell what it was without seeing the padding that would have been on it.
If it was me I...
Years ago somebody dumped about 2 dozen HUGE cast Iron boiler sections in the woods. Somebody made out like a bandit hauling them off for scrap.
I love it when people ditch the window AC's. We...
Some people just don't think. Also some people are just way too trusting of the general public and think that everyone will respect what is theirs. They don't seem to realize that A: there are a...
Did you scrap that safe? I would think that a 100+ year old safe would be worth more than the couple hundred in scrap value to an antique dealer or collector.
My grandmother had a smaller version...
I see real old computers at yard sales every now and then. Problem is the people selling them have no clue how to hook them up if they even have all the pieces. They also want collector pricing on...
Yard was definitely in on this. No way do you process 70k lbs of heavy wire and not wonder where it is all coming from......
I saw one of those old terminal style computers at a yard sale last weekend. Guy would not take less than 30 bucks for it and said it did not work so I had to pass.
My yard does not even deduct weight for cardboard boxes unless it's a rather large box. I have a large amount of Flat Rate Priority Mail boxes that my neighbor threw out by the caseload. They are...
Just about every flatpanel LCD/LED TV now has a VGA input on it. Hooks right to any computer with no special video card needed.
I have a bunch of movies on my laptop and will plug it into my tv...
So the trailer is Illegal and unregistered but you are planning on towing to the yard?? Hope you dont get pulled over or cause an accident with it!
If you cut it up sell the axes. They are worth...
Just about every LCD TV you see curbside that does not have a physically broken screen just needs a few capacitors replaced to get it working again. Its a common problem where the caps on the power...
My neighbors never throw out any good stuff. One has a yard jammed with old rusting junk and he has finally decided to part with it and clear it out but he is taking it all to the yard with his sons...
Wait a month or two and then put an ad on Craigslist for a large amount of free scrap and list his phone number and address. Or put an ad in the men seeking men section saying your coming out and...
That should be a nice payday!
Thief just got caught in my town yesterday! Guy pulled into his driveway and sees a dude coming out of the vacant house next door holding a bundle of copper pipe and a pair of bolt cutters. Guy...
How do you end up with 20 pay phones with money still in them but not have a key? Did the guy dropping them off have any paperwork from the phone company?
Probably still worth a few bucks if it really is a Sulfur Dioxide compressor, call up Ricks Restorations! Maybe you'll get on TV!
On most 90's GM cars there is a red wire with a female connector under the hood that is in the upper right corner if you are standing in front of the car. Connect that wire to the fuel postive batt...
