Two days of Scrapping

Hey everyone! I haven't really givin any updates on scrapping in a while so here is going to be my two days of scrapping.

The first thing I picked up today was a side by side fridge, metal table, and gross mini fridge from a local non-profit I volunteer at. I came home and dropped those off in the driveway. Then me and my friend went out and tried to get as much metal from the streets as possible. Literally twenty feet into the first street we already picked up some christmas tree thing and a heavy metal frame. Then right down the street we picked up the heaviest BBQ grill I've ever seen in my entire life. It has to weigh at least 300 lbs. The two of us could barely get it into the back of the truck. We went and dropped it off at my house and checked the top stainless part. It was non-magnetic! Cha ching! Even the grill racks were non magnetic stainless steel!





After that we went and did the rest of our route. The biggest thing we picked up were 3 Air Conditioning transformers that were the size of my head and weighed 30 LBS each. Crazy. We also picked up a ballast that was 2 feet long! At the end of the night, we filled up the truck and plan to go out tomorrow morning to collect more, then go to the scrap yard tomorrow afternoon. Twill be a good day!

I'll update y'all tomorrow on how we do!

I guess everything is bigger in Texas

It's a members mark pro from Sams Club. It actually is really nice, but it had rats in it. It's nasty on the inside.

Taste like chick'n.

Sorry for not updating this earlier. We headed out the next morning and found a full sized christmas tree, a workout bench, and a lot of other stuff that filled up the truck. The first load consisted of all the appliances and that monster BBQ full of stuff. Weighed in with 1160 LBS of Shred, 95 LBS of Clean Stainless from the BBQ and some pots and pans.



The second load had 350 LBS of shred, and my non-ferrous. Didn't get a pic of that load.

The total for two days work was around $250 not counting gas which wasn't too bad.
