Picked up Five Lucent telecom bays today: 7 ft tall & 3 ft wide
Steel frames, aluminum cages, wire and backplanes
2 steel telecom racks: mostly steel & some wire: super heavy
4 boxes of misc wire
Pics to follow
We use a couple of battery powered impact wrenches to break them down
Picked them up when it was 91 degrees and 2 million % humidity
I combined that pickup with a trip to the scrapyard:
3 Gaylords of aluminum
2 Gaylords of tin
1 Gaylord of wire
Misc buckets of motors, copper bearing, brass, #2 copper & stainless
One really cool thing when you show up in a box truck with loaded with Gaylords of stuff: they unload for you with a forklift and weigh you in first!
I had to get the manager of the yard out on the floor: While most of the guys are good to me, the guy on the scale was a jerk. Both the yard & shop bosses apologized and bumped the wire price for me.
