      @@supersparks9466 Most customers opt to have a bin for convenience, saving the need to leave cable on the ground or find multiple bags and boxes to keep it in. Plus it makes collecting it quick and easy for us. But some customers have their own containers and that's fine by us - we're easy 😊

    I did see the video Adam did about the green bin I did ask the question if was the rate less than the local scrap yard considering their running cost of picking it up and I was convinced by their reply that it was about the same so as you say any twin and earth small SWA etc by the time you've stripped it and taken it there, it's worth it. The bigger size stuff and meter tails are debatable. You wouldn't want to have it left out with the other bin at the side of your house as it would soon be nicked. As for Adam, he has just finished a kitchen extension and for one of his first jobs his done really well on it definitely a confidence booster.

    Good video, interesting to see that it doesn't cost in to strip anything below 6mm². Out of interest, what are the dispoal costs of the sheathing? As I don't think this was factored into your final calculation?

  • @GreencableTeam

    Nice little watch that, Nick! So many puns to make about "stripping" and "earning cash on the side" - not enough time to make them 🤣
    Worth noting that the cable in the bucket would be earning you around £2.80 per kilo as it's Single Core / High Grade cable, therefore around £17 total.
    So this cable stripping exercise with the machine will be earning you around £18 per hour. Many ask us if it's worthwhile doing it with a knife... horses for courses!
    For your Multi-Core/Household/Twin & Earth cable, that'll be the stuff earning you £1.80 per kilo and definitely not worth stripping as you say.

    100% agree with anything under 6mm^2 not being worth the cost to strip. Usually the company I work with we save up a large pile and strip it all in a day and send it off provided the boys don’t keep it for themselves.
    We usually strip anything from 6mm^2 to 630mm^2 and will also pull busbar out of decommissioned switchboards.
    Other factors can be the cost to get it scrapped such as having to travel to get the best price.

    100% it’s worth it.
    I used to work in the exhibition trade. At the end of a show, I’d collect LOADS of cable up from Dozens Of exhibition stands.
    Back at the workshop, I’d stick maybe 10 cables in a vice and walk backwards pulling the rubber off.
    Do it in your tea break. Easy money. 👍🏾

      Most careers where you’re directly close to money will make the big money compared to an unrelated service like sparky. It’s all down to consequential loss or gain. If the lawyer screws up you can lose your house.

      Like to keep it or us take it way for them. Each domestic job (let’s say a rewire) generates maybe around £20 worth of scrap depending how much time you take to rip it all out. To the customer it’s not worth the hassle but to us over the year it adds up 👍

      Not if you put it in your quote that you will be stripping out the previous installation (ie, the cables) and renewing it.

      Remember Raoul Moat? He was pulled over and over by PC Rathband - who he shot in the face - who had seized his van after pulling him and finding hedge clippings in the back. Moat was trying to go straight, trying to earn an honest living. But, he had no licence to carry waste, so lost the van (as well as his fucking mind).
      Or how about when some piss-artist smashes into your van, and when the insurance assessor comes to have a look, he opens the back door and sees loads of crap you are going to stick in your tat pile? If you are carrying waste illegally, he may be able save his employers a nice chunk by knocking down your pay-out (leaving you way out of pocket)
