- 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.

It's a good thing it wasn't dark when you saw those faces in the dumpster. If I had seen them in the dark I would have about had a heart attack. Lol
Mike. That bundle of white tubes are nickel / cadmium batteries used in emergency lighting when power goes out in shops and so on. I have some 10 years old and still work great. Rechargeable.
That was a pretty deep box I think you only got the first layer of stainless caps didn't dig after the you got the 5
Thought the same
Mikey you r a very hardworking man. God bless you my dear. This wish comes from India. I am hooked to your videos ever since I found them on youtube. I can watch one video after the other for hours. Take care be safe n God bless your family and you
Hell of a score mike nice job keeping that stuff out of our landfills
I am an electrition that scraps. Therefore I am a SCRAPTRITION! Lol. Another fine video Mr. Scavenger. Well done
Hi from the UK Mike I love your videos and love your sense of humour, you really make me laugh. You are doing such a great job recycling and make some terrific finds
Those socks you have on are crazy, fits your wild personality! 😂
Just wondering if the things you set outside of the dumpster for later pick-up ever get taken before you get back to claim them?
That box you got blue things out of went right to bottom of bin must been another layer there
Richard Williams that is what it looked like to me too, just a layer of cardboard packing in between layers.
That is what I ve been thinking too, the box was to deep for just one layer of parts
I thought that too.
not the only one here xD it seems!
would deff pulled out the other layers . see if there was more :P . i'm sure when mike reads the comments he might go back a 2nd time! after all where all helping him right :P
Good morningMike,reise This camera, see the landscape🤙
Those things are frames for a door you look through. I call them windows
It looks like a new one of those Body Frame Repair Kits goes for 460, clean 🧼 it up 🆙
That body frame repair kit ,is what we call a Jig in the U.K. and it’s used to straighten out chassis to stop the car from crabbing they are usually hydraulic now ,but it will be handy for a amature car enthusiast ,great vid mr Mike 👍👍
Also known as a porter power. Great find.
Probably all you need is an appropriate hose, and some jack oil! Used one of these many, many times, starting in the mid sixties. Great find! Clean it up, and try it out...should be quite sellable!
I just got a trunk just like that !!!! That’s awesome. Lol. I got mine from a trash pile and it looks brand new. Same color and all.
Love the trunk.
I believe in paying the security guards to watch over my scrap. That’s why they are there right. 😂😂 a good electrician never leaves copper behind!
There was another layer of those blue things look how deep the box was.👍👍
I didn't know that Lowe's recycled those batteries. Thanks for the info! 😁
Watch out for those dumpster attack noodles they go for Mr happy first you were lucky that time my friend 🤣
That money hole at 13:35 had another layer of those pipe caps in it. You only grabbed one of two layers.
I noticed he misses a lot of stuff
Me too, he is always in such a hurry, still love watching though
Mike if you were to find the right person you could get a lot more than $5.00 / $10.00 bud closer to $50.00. Great video thank you 👍😊
I have had an old trunk like you found that has been in our family since it was new that now holds all my house painting supplies.
Yep it pulls and aligns the frame I've used it once when I went to school for collision repair. My instructor was scared we didn't have the chains hooked up right. Pulling frame is a dangerous situation
Nice haul mike. Nice to see the dumpster juice has gone. Stay safe. 🏴 and wash those hands🤲
8:40 I would've made a joke about my noodle's coming out, but Mike starts banging it on the ground instead. That's Mike for ya lol
Always finding good scrap Mike! That orange box contains what is called a hydraulic ram kit and 1 ton is the weakest version, 4 ton is much better. The spreader is called a duck bill. The seals are probably shot. I started working in body shops at 18 and ram kits were one of my favorite pro-toys. Slap $30-$40 on it and see if it sells!
😊 mike that is a port a power ram for straightening automobile frames.
Saludos desde santiago de Chile bendiciones para ti hermano cuidate mucho y bendiciones. Para ti y para tu familia
It's an good extension to your tool collection
Love your videos. Thanks for doing what you do.
👍👍💜 Thank you Mike again!🌞
grande Mike!
You are awesome Mike and I believe if you have a comedian show you will be one of the top stars in the USA
Those square machined Aluminium plates are seriously expensive ideal for use as beds for 3D printers. If I was in US I'd bid you for them 😊
Nice play for the bike i like your bike awesome
Finally you have a new video mike.. keep safe 🥰🥰
Hi, those sheets of plywood will sell good at a yard sale, even half sheets will sell!
A mellow interlude at 12:00!! Just before finding the blue aluminium caps!!
I love when the cat scares him lmao
I would love to get that Rigid bag
Great finds. Enjoyed your video 😎. God bless you and be safe 😎 🙏
Good thing you did not hear hello or hi back when you saw those two faces. 😆 Great video.
That tool in the red box is a porta-power .It is a hydraulic ram and the wedge one is for spreading.
Some good finds, Mike
I just see Mike having been a BMX racing in his early kid days. It's still great exercise for a mature guy.
Oh I see your bicycle up in the bed of your truck now, 🤪
all right all right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
love it
Guten abend. 👍 👌 💪
Let the boxes hit the floor!
U must have alot of hiding places to store ur goodies until 2morrow. ❤😂🎉😊 13:41
Hey Mike,
How's you. Got quite a gd load on this scavenge.
Be safe out there.🏴🇬🇧
Tearing up the streets before the dive action. In the early 90s I had a launch ramp in the back of my van for wall riding action.
Right on !!!
Straightening out twisted chassis after a wreck!
Need more spaceship parts mike lol
Hi mike. Happy to see you doing well. Please take care and stay safe while going into the dumpsters. Talk to you later my friend. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎
Love your socks
These pieces recalled a rainy and very windy day ..... But also a good harvest ...
Nice stainless. Just noticed the box was 3 times deeper than you went.
Keep doing what you're doing
Keep finding parts and soon you’ll have a whole trailor
Id like to get my hands on one or two of those small red boxes. I could repurpose the 7734 out of them.
I see those shin guards
Those cast blue caps sound like Aluminium
For jacking out body damage i use mine for Splitting tractor apart to install new Clutches makes easy work
Mike !!!! Aren't you glad that you didn't see those "faces in the dumpster" .. 8:58 .... AT MIDNIGHT???? instead of during the day?? hahahahahahahaaaaaa
@23:28 You almost dropped that heavy steel piece on your toes. I winced when I saw that.
All that lumber in the open top. I wish I could come across something like that.
Very nice trunk!
That was so e good lumber in that purple one
the body kit is also known as a portapower. and they have good value.
Stay safe Mike
New imployee, that scraps lol
Good one
Anything that’s been in the sea or by the sea don’t last long mike
good job Mikey stay safe
Nice trunk !✌
They got their eyes on u in the dumpster lol
Be safe and if you need to take a break I'll still follow you and not blame you. 👍😷👍
Always happy to know all of your finds will not sent to Landfill.💲💲💲💲💲💲💲
Nice haul Mike
That thing you found at 27:08 is a toddler bed. I have one just like it. Was my daughter's now my grandbabies use it when I get to keep them
17:08 not 27:08
Good find
Keep going!
Mike you guna have to sort out a trailer for the truck use the truck for scrap and then trailer for the timber so you can garage sale the timber
Find more of those doorknobs they are worth a small fortune!!!
hi mike! Psssst, watch out for the security guy!
stay save and healthy in the urban jungle and dont step on nails.
greetings from germany! love and peace, bro!
boxes that lock, and a bag full of crap. snibbits of wire, and steel window frames. big aluminum caps, and trailer leaf springs. these are a few of mikes favorite things. lol! edit; dude! that porta power frame repair tool is a real find. what do you want for it? i'll buy it right now, where do i send the money?
It is a dandy tool for a user that knows how to use it. I have watched many "trashed cars" become good runners and drivers under proper use. Definitely a good find.
I'm 67 years old and I remember when my dad bought his porta power tool. That was about 45 years ago. I had 3 sister and we work in that garage with our dad fixing wrecked cars. We use ours all the time. Good tool to have.
@@carolynm7-28 I am 73 and had a friend who rebuilt wrecks also. The key to using the potra tool was recreating the accident in reverse so you pulled what was pushed. I watched many restorations that were amazing. Truly an unique tool no user would ever trash
You are not smooth I saw you drop that bag back on the ground at 3:50 I love your videos keep up the good work
Boxes with the locks would make the coolest geo cash.
C'est satisfesant de regarder ça
Them glass door knobs go fo 20.00 a set . Did you know off breakers have nickel in them . Have a great day
Drats Mike take a school bus doing this. lol
MIKE JOAR A PRO 👍
Wow all that lumber in the landfill?
Man I would have taken all that lumber. To build something. Kicker ramp something
Yes! The price of wood right now is through the roof
Used to straighten frame rails and body panels on a car we call that a porta power in the US
Those metal squares are actually for installing glass, wire or tempered.
3/4”ply wood in a roll away...I’d so be fetching that crap!
And making more than one trip for that stuff
What I was thinking... pull the nails and Craigslist at $25 each.
