Know your fluff

I heard from a sanitation man FLUFF is all the left over unusable mix of glass plastic foam etc from the metal industry from cars and other appliances after shredder .
So i used a spread sheet to keep track of how much non metal actually i might be including with my mix by estimating the weight of items i see are true metal . Metal items that could have foam plastic glass i now can see how much i might give per order



I can see how to lower the FLUFF in my mix and see really how if your not careful you can accidentally get paid for to much FLUFF
some yards are also more forgiving so i can balance out according to yards preference.

Julie, you crack me up sometimes! I expected that from one of the guys! ;-)

A comparison of 2 yards one is a net other a gross now if i see how to not accidentally give to much fluff and be a Tweaking Fluffier - As you see first i know the loaded weight . Then i only add up the true metal . The fluff with simple subtraction is then isolated and reduced according to any yards rules and wishes . By me a yard wants very little - foam - plastic or any non metal .They watch very much so . Another yards I know gladly takes vacuums chairs with some wood
tires with wheels - I compare net and gross. This load almost had to much FLUFF I reduced by taking apart some of the items to avoid accidentally getting paid for (well you know the word)

"scratching head repeatedly".

I dated a girl years ago, her nickname was Fluffy

Like cramming your mouth with as many marshmellows as you can until you can't say "fluffy bunny" anymore?
