    That is a lot of machines! It is good that you are cleaning up the area also - that should go a long way. He might refer you to others that he knows that might have the same problem - at least when you have his place looking better.

    i think you are getting more as is...
    Also some aluminum and stainless steel in there, but I agree, getting more. I will process the ones with the metal bodies though

    I really do not have time myself to list them, but I have thought about trying to find a place nearby that lists stuff for people for a percentage of what it sells for. If I can find one, I will see if they might be interested in listing some.

    I should FINALLY be finished with this job this weekend. With my regular job I am limited to picking the dishwashers up on weekends, and with a time of about 3 1/2 hours to drive to the property, load, drive home and unload I can only get 3 - 4 loads a week. Been processing the faucets I was also able to pick up on this job in the evenings while I am polishing the couch with my butt watching TV, and now just about have filled my 3rd bucket with brass. That will make for a decent little payday itself when I get it turned in. As soon as I get the last of the dishwashers home I am going to take some pictures to show what this accumulation looked like.

    I will have to count them after my last load. I have been so busy doing pick ups I have not had much time to take them in. I have so far taken in two loads, in addition to processing 10 dishwashers, so that will be 58 plus the ones I have stored on my property. I will take pictures and provide counts.

    LOL. Most of my pick ups were Saturdays after the scrap yard closed and on Sundays when they were not open. Since the yard is only open for 3 1/2 hours on Saturdays and it is a 3 hour round trip to go to the plumbing yard, load up and return I am limited on the number of runs I can make. Once I get them to my place it is only 20 minutes to the yard, so I can make several trips, even with them only being open for a short time.

    Finally got numbers and pics. Below is the two piles I have created. The pile by the shed has 87 dishwashers, and the pile by the trailer has 179 dishwashers. I have taken in 82 for a grand total of 348 dishwashers.

    Man, that is one heck of a deal you got there. Great connection. I processed one VERY old dishwasher and oh gawd the smell was awful!!! I think it had fruit loops from the seventies in the drain tube!

    Actually that is my 32' trailer I was using for hotshot deliveries, until I finally found another IT job. I am keeping it though in case I have to go back to hotshotting if this does not work out. My 16' is a bumper pull.
