    I pretty much have not changed anything. All the calls I get are pretty much on the way from work to home, so it is nothing to swing by and pick up a washer/dryer/refrigerator. My big client (plumbing company) continues to replace appliances, so once a week I will drag my 16ft flatbed with me to work, then swing by after my regular job. I will usually fill it about 2/3 full, and save the stuff until I have a full load to take to the yard (after processing to remove the non-ferrous). That way I am not making several little runs, just one big run. I just got a call today from a apartment complex who asked me if I would be interested in a continual haul off (as they replace appliances in their apartments), and I said I am your man. I will not go out of my way as much as I use to, but I get enough calls off of craigslist that it still keeps me busy.
