    Do you just drive around looking for scrap or do you have clients you pick up scrap?

    My grandfather was in this business his whole life. He had plumbing businesses, roofing and siding businesses, automotive body shops etc. that he'd stop at all of them about once a week. Then he'd take his truck back to his house and drop off the more expensive metal in his garage to store and make daily runs after that to get rid of all the iron.

    Do you have clients you pick up from or sort of just drive around on garbage day?



    I could of taken over his business when my grandfather passed away because I always worked for him on my Summers, but in my younger years I was such a stupid idiot that I thought I was above scrapping. Now I want to get back in the business.

    I'm starting with my 99' CR-V, a home made website, and some business cards. I'm not ready to quit my day job just yet.

    By the way, enjoy the eclipse everyone!
