Hello, I´m looking for someone to discuss scrap with?
Just to talk about scrap, scrapping methods, business and so on.

Thanks.

Welcome to the Forum. I'd say you're in the right place for that. How about telling us a little about yourself?

Yes I´m interested in scrapping
And I´m unemployed so i want to start a scrap business
But i really don´t know what kind of business.
Maybe i will start to pick up scrap from small companies because then they don´t have to scrap it on their own.
Big companies they already have a scrapdealer which pick up theirs scrapmetal.
So i wonder if its easy to start a little scrap business like that?
But my problem is that i don´t have a car!?

Scrapping on a bicycle?

I ride around on my motorcycle a lot so I have saddlebags. I assume that saddlebags would work well on your bicycle, also a trunk rack.

I feel any thing is possible with scrap as scrap has some thing going for it a customer 6 to 7 days a week THE YARDS that is more then can be said about other business's . On a bike you will have to be realistic . But Copper wire and on the spot dismantling of value items . You might grow and then get a beater of a car like a mini van . from there it will be all up to you . If rags to riches is possible scrap can do it. Just prepare your self as it is not easy work .Nor do we all get rich, but yes you can make money

you mentioned one thing that won't fit, you seem to be looking for the "easy button". You can do it, but don't expect it to be easy. I read one guy on here rides around on his bicycle with a two wheel dolly in tow
