  • Trash picking is loading me up with scrap electrical's and copper wire so much that I can't keep up but at least it keeps me busy through the week and gives me a challenge to see if I can clear it out before the next day out street scrapping.
    Keep scrapping & Have fun!

    I want to say a big thanks to Ben.
    Hope I didn't slow you down too much mate. Driving round my area can be a serious h!#dFu#k in those narrow streets 😉
    To All,
    I went through a pretty big breakdown and serious life changing events that put me in a pretty dark place with no family or close friends around me. Too common for us older guys!
    Was told by my doctor to get out of the house and have some fun. DON'T sit at Home.
    After a moments thought and a flyer about my councils Hard Rubbish collection, thought I do know someone.
    I think I just about filled the old Merc on a previous encounter from my own junk, and being invited down to Ben's place last year, thought I'd reach out.
    The sparkling personality and sense of humour must have made a lasting impression 😜
    Viewers of this missed a lot of the conversation in the van (probably good 😉) but really fun and totally what I needed,.so thanks.
    If there's a next time I'm bringing a pushbike, my phone and Vintage Stereo equipment will be on the hit list (if it ever stops freakin raining here).
    To all you folks out there feeling down and bruised, there's always someone you can talk to, doesn't have to be Beyond Blue, Lifeline etc, just someone, anyone who'll listen and actually better if they're outside your inner circle.
    thanks again mate and all the best to all.
    Mark

It's about 20 years old but probably still in perfect working condition. Once when I was in Netherlands I could buy the whole 5.1 setup for 17 euros but I didn't know much about speakers back then :(
    You could take it for parts because there's a really nice board inside aswell with a big transformer and give the rest (enclosure and speaker) to some kid or for somene who collects speakers like me.

    I can't believe you just leave all those remote controls behind. I make a ton of money on eBay with remotes, but I guess you gotta draw the line somewhere, otherwise you would need 5 storage units and you don't wanna be that guy. :)

    Its a little irritating with the cord cuttng but they could easily leave a sign asking the scrappers to leave the re-usable electronics. Someone went through the effort to wrap and label a PC for it to be pulled apart

    I am surprised at just how much electronics people throw away on the street in Oz. It is so wasteful. In the UK that would be a car boot sale.
