    City Spring Clean-Ups are on the way!

    SPRING CLEAN-UP. For those who aren't lucky enough to know what that means, it's when a town has an agreement with it's trash hauler to pick up an unlimited amount of garbage for free during a certain week in the spring. That's when you have literally parades of scrap trucks going through the town collecting thousands of pounds of scrap.

    Who's got them coming up? and how big of a deal do you make it out to be?

    for example, spring clean-up is a huge deal for me, I've currently got at least 3 trucks equipped with CB radios going to run through the streets. and i have a 2000sq ft landscaping shop that suddenly turns into a tipping floor and sorting/break-down facility for 4 days where everything is dumped and at the end of the day, 2 of the trucks come back to help sort while the 3rd stays out overnight. In end, all the precious metals and materials are sorted, and a dumpster is dropped off by the scrap yard to take all the shred.

    the whole operation is kind of big
