    The Hurrier I go, The behinder I get. I LOVE IT.... I wish I could find a treasure like that. I saw that saying in a dairy barn that my brother worked at for years and I have said it for years and lived by it. Love his way of cleaning up and recycling. Thank you sir. You have made my day.

    Although It's perfectly legal to go through trash & scrap people's junk, I don't know if I have the gall to go at the edge of someone's yard and go through their trash cans. Once trash is set out on the curb, it's considered public domain. The dude is making money and not hurting any one. We are such a wasteful country any ways. Go for it, DreamCar!

    I love watching this kind of stuff. Thanks for taking the time to video your scrapping run. When I was a kid in the 60's, I used to get all the scrap TVs from the repairman across the street. Lots of copper and brass in those old sets. That's how I got my spending money in those days. Allowance? Never heard of it. LOL

    I pickup a honda snow blower and was stopped by several people trying to buy it right off my truck, all that was wrong with it was a dirty carb, that was a keeper!
    just used it last week and saved my back.
    before that, it was all shovel.

    How big is the overhead in doing this? I do this to and from places I'd already be going, in a small hatchback car. I can't help but look at a big V6 or V8 truck driving around doing this and wonder how much is lost to the price of fuel. I"m presuming it still works out in your favor?

    Do you get leads for these pick ups or are you searching on Big Bulk pick up days or...??? I know where I live they only have 2 Big Bulk pick up days per year. If you have Bulk to pick up outside of those 2 days, you can call the City to arrange pick up but it cost you $15. I have set out to distribute fliers and only had a handful of calls. I'm just looking for a better formula! Thnx.

    Very cool man. I love doing this stuff. I got the cops called on me for taking aluminum cans out of someones recycling bin because it was considered "stealing." Cops were on my side and we were laughing together except the homeowner. No one else in my neighborhood has a problem with it as long as I don't make a mess which sounds fair to me.

    • @hanksgarage_
      @hanksgarage_ 8 лет назад +3

      +j jones I know your comment is old, but I completely agree... IMO there is very little money to be made on scrap in between scrounging it, hauling it back home, breaking it down, and hauling it again to a scrap yard, just ain't worth the time to me for such a little return. I pick up stuff solely to use or fix and sell. I make 10x as much as this guy does scrapping it all by selling it on to someone else, majority of what I pick and fix are small engine stuff and they leave my hands in a day or so of posting..
