We have a crv, I've hauled decent amounts in it. One day I had two push mowers in it without putting the seats down. Had to open the window on the back for the handles to stick out!

Those last pixs remind me of when I used to work as a pharm tech in a local hospital. One of my jobs was to pul outdated meds from the various drawers and such of the ER. I remember one day this older nurse holding a UNCAPPED needle ready 12 ml syringe full of blood behind another RN's back as they read some orders. One bad move and the one nurse could have been exposed to AIDS/HIV, Hep, whatever. Just made me cringe and close my eyes that it wouldn't happen in front of me.
But hey, its your funeral riding around with that much loose scrap in the passenger's compartment if things go bad. I just hope its quick!

I carried a 46 kg (100lbs) 3000 watt UPS inc batterys (15kg) 20 city blocks home in a sack on my back last Sunday....Originally Posted by Savannahsworld
Just because I saw it in a rubbish skip, then I went back for another load...
Got a homebrew kit inc condensor for spirits, trailer lights, tools and sundrys.
Today I carried 50kg sack 10 blocks... In it was 2 fridge compressors, microwave transformer etc, washing mc motor, 16 motherboards, various fridge Ali, wire and as many goldfinger boards from computers as I could fit in there..
Could be another competition in the 'Scrapper Olympics'.

Before I got into scrapping ACS I didn't have much. I remember a few times I fit a full size top freezer refrigerator in the back of my ford pribe , a 2 door hatchback. I have loaded it with window airs, compressors and all kinds of stuff. I once loaded a 4 ton condensing unit in it.

Hey Gravitar, That looks like my minivan after my sister and I go to the dump. We bring home more that we drop off. I had to laugh- I will try to remember to post pics next time I go.
When we get home my wife almost always comes out with that look on her face like what sh$t did you bring home this time ? ( notice the $ sign )
My sister is a worse scavenger than I am- and she has a good eye for finding hidden treasures.
