  • Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

    In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

      @reticent e ville There doesn't need to be one. I think the OP is saying it would be nice for Mike to hit 1m subs before the years out. Just something to celebrate.

    Very nice. I know what you mean about the grill. My husband and I went and bought one maybe a little smaller than that one. The one we had was a huge grill. We wasted a lot of propane just cooking for 2 on the big grill. That was a really nice load at the end. That was a crazy amount of stuff.
    Stay safe and God Bless

    @thatsfunny7729 2 года назад +2

    Love the videos Mike! Have you ever considered giving us a rough number what each load ends up making you? Maybe in description or even layer down the road as a pinned comment? I'm so interested in doing this. But, I really think most of the businesses here have locked dumpsters and as far as trash pick ups go we don't have the old school leave whatever you want thrown out on the curb type system. We have garbage cans that are picked up by a truck, nobody ever gets out of the truck and because of that, if you have anything that needs to be picked up by the garbage man that doesn't fit in your bin, you have to call ahead, make arrangements and pay extra. So, you NEVER see people putting stuff out on the curb. So, that leaves pretty much only dumpster diving which we used to do back in the late 90's early 2,000's for electronics outside of big box electronics stores and local stereo stores. We used to get lots of cool stuff. But most, if not all the businesses here now have huge Grey dumpsters that don't seem to have any human access really.

    Mike got me in the habitat of tossing all my spare nuts and bolts into a bucket along with any scrap metal we accumulated and I put it out on the curb every few months for the scrappers. Best one was when I picked up an old church organ and took it apart for fun. Two buckes of wires, screws, bolts, brass and other metal. That guy was pretty happy when he stopped by.

If he's in the HVAC field he çould have whole systems for you or needed help ripping the plumbing out of a demo. Just a thought. Looking out for the Scavenger. What a score though. Would love to know the total of the scrap run for that truck load. PS do you have a PayPal account I would love to buy a new tail light for The Dr. Your friend from Maine Eric

    Have no fear Mike is here to rescue the scrap from the landfill and give it new life as a new aluminum chair.
    Nice run Mike and that run was about $128. just from the one house. A smorgasbord of metal.
    Old lead piping is rare to find.
    It looked like you picked up a shower door header. I used one to make up a towing lights in a pinch. Saved money.
