    Always impressed at how clean everything looks while you are driving. It appears to me that you went to the suburbs. The sticks has horses, cows, crops growing in the field and dirt roads everywhere. I live in the sticks with all kinds of wild animals on my property day and night. In the Southern USA. Deer, opossum, coyote, rabbits, turkeys and raccoon.

    Here in Finland the power supplys to laptop goes for 7 - 12 dollars a piece second hand. It is also lucrative to put SSD drives into laptops and sell. The old XP laptops with serial port are in demand, since they are used to analyze car repair fault numbers.

    Can I suggest purchasing a pair of heavy duty folding ram9s?. That way, you can take one of your large orange bins and a couple of wheelie bins. Load them up inside then wheel out and up into the van. Less time wasted walking back and forward when collecting and quicker to unload at the other end.

    Good job, now is the time to think about the other van investement of turning it in to an enclosed trailer, you can make a trade for the engine tranamission and other parts for the retrofit,throw in a piece of shiny gold and they will think they are prospectors, Then you will have almost matching van and trailer, make sure when he does the trailer he makes a place for your ramps and 2 spare tires, 1 for the van, 1 for the trailer, Just a thoughtful thought. Then later on you can have them boath silk screened with eWaste Ben with monitors, pcs, gol and silver coins, clouds on the top with the number 9, white wall tires with living large in white letters, and chickens all over, and your face with a headlamp and a drill driver. and so on, big building employees and mo monies.
