I will be doing the scheduling, contacts, helping build business when I have down time from my own business. I wish you were closer too so you could teach me and I could beat him this week, haha. Tips are good tho...if I get business picked up I may be out otr more. It's nice getting out from behind this computer once in a while.
    I am in VA, so yea, GA is a bit of a drive lol.

    I am surprised he didn't teach you though, so you can get a LOT more when you are doing runs on your own etc.



    Like I said though, anything bigger then other stuff and has any kind of holes, slots, nooks and crannies, just fill it as much as possible.

    Also, like I said, whether you do dumpster diving, or even going from home to home or business to business, you will sometimes need to rearrange, but doing it correctly maximizes room.

    I will admit, that it does not work all the time, but depending on what you get, it will.
