I do not have any disasters going on here except Rick Perry as governor. So I just find scrap where I can...I try to use the not so taken care of neighborhoods but oddly enough. I am 1000% confident now after just a few minutes of it. That here in the bible belt..drinking is big..and if you have an hour or 2 and your in the right places...its possible to acquire 50 pounds of aluminum from beer cans haha. As for the Damage done..as of Sept 1'st we cannot recycle utility polls without paperwork..Cool I guess except I came across 3 that look like they are from the 1970's and no one not even the city knows wtf. Now someone has to come out and instead of me just showing up with an Electric Reciprocating Saw and cutting them up into bits that will fit in my long bed...I have to go back out and meet with a city worker at some time or they have to go check them out and get back to me... I picked up a bunch of little RR spikes and turns out now in Tx you cannot recycle those either without paperwork. Though I picked up the spikes before I came to this site and found out you could not do this haha.
I just started out myself and mostly rely on luck as I have no possible way of advertising until more "stable" courier work comes in. Though I am hopeful everyday I will come across abandoned stuff here and there. I am more interested in picking up junk cars and scrapping those but need a 16ft trailer or car hauler. Around here those are EASY money, or can be..
