    I'm out in Garbage night every Sunday night, Monday night, Wednesday night, and Thursday night.. I could go to a garbage night every night minus Sunday, but just be a longer drive.



    Usually start by 7:30pm.

    What do you mean, like neighbors, or cops?

    Once it's on that strip of grass between the curb and the sidewalk, it's considered "public property" .. I have been stopped by cops before and was told this several times...

    As for neighbors...I get more metal from the neighbors being nosey, in turn they offer something when they figure out what im doing lol.

    I do both. Residential is easy because of the obvious cluster...Commercial is a bit more scattered, and something I don't really make a route for...just one of those if I'm there, i'll check.

    No, the extent of my scrapping is either garbage hunting or checking the free section on CL. I Just stay in the neighborhood (dont stay out long, maybe til 9:15 or so)
