    savannahs world scraping

    the scrapping gods are good to me this weekend. I went this morning to get pancake mix and iv found a jackpot, two truck loads of stuff first load mix pike of stuff I need to separate. second load was half a trailer ( heavy iron) and three sections of chain link 6 for fence. came home has pancake took the fence and trailer to scrap yard made $57 bucks before I had coffee then went home and clean up my light iron week most of it.
    then on my way to stop that of I got a call from a cl ad I responded to couple days ago for all windows and a steel shed. SCORE!!!!! waiting for tomorrow to bring the shed them I have to clean the glass out of the storm windows. that should be a pretty penny. plus u have a fridge full of al I need to prep. hopefully I can get all the al cleaned up before noon. deff starting to get the scraper high two days in a row how not to get addicted...... think I've been for a while lol.

    Before you start taking them apart, scrape the windings to see if their copper or alum. Don't waste your time with the alum ones. Sell them whole.

    what motors usually al. I've take vacuum and a washer dryer apart..... I haven't day on motor long enough to take them apart. I'm trying to do things different note that I have a decent job I can pkt my scrap trio the side and instead of taking it in when I need cash take it in when I either don't have room or when I full a bucket.

    Hey Savannahsworld - our company does big volume of refurb IT equipment and our warehouse is in Rincon. Please contact me if you ever come across good quality, high end resalable equipment like network equipment, servers, etc. I also have a few pallets of scrap servers, PCs, etc, probably 3,000 pounds worth or so. Maybe you would be interested in it. Give me a call at 404-994-6262 so we can talk about it. I am often away from my desk but if you leave me a message I am prompt about calling back.

    Thanks

    hi everyone as I sit back (only for about 30 mins) I'm over whelmed with what I have. I still have the piles of labtops a pile of wire ( biggest pile I've collect... score) I have two cars (first time in life a truck and a car) I just want to give all this stuff to gas. I'm not trying to become a scraper.... I'm trying to become a man and a truck. helping people when u can and scraping and fixing cars allows me to not have a 9-5. my girls happy with me not working a real job. I try to be out of my house moving around, even if all u do is bulldog paper work stuff one day. I'm up and moving from sun up to sun down.

    not sure what this post really about but. than you to you who reads and those who write post. you help me be a better scraper so that u can be a better help to those around me
