Tell me, why do you scrap?

I took early retirement and wanted to start my own business that I could do what I wanted, when I wanted to do it, and still be outside.

The ferrous money made from scrapping is reinvested into the business allowing for bigger/better equipment and the non-ferrous is being saved as a retirement gift for my wife.



The real reason I scrap is to be able to control my lifestyle.

Ditto on Patroit76's post. Also I started out as a "rehab" to help recover from kidney disease side effects. I stayed for brain activity needed to succeed in this business, even on a small scale. 73, Mike
