    We are working with a local R2 certified company. When I started doing this I began asking for advice from the local guys. I found 2 who are really cool. Some guys that are successful just want to see someone hungry get it. They have been very helpful. They are just interested in my material coming their way. The one guy even told me bring me your stuff and when you are ready I'll hook you up with my contacts.

    I spent almost 6 months getting this running so we are well prepared. I am in the process of becoming R2 certified. I hired a consultant that got my buddy through the R2 process. He assures me even if takes a year or more he will get me through the process.

    In the upcoming next few months we will be opening up a wharehouse / processing facility. There are alot of hoops to jump through but we expect to do very well. We will be the only e-scrap yard north of the city. Buy the time we open I will have every penny I have invested. Still we will be a building, scale, and some gaylords. God willing we will do alright. Operating capital is my next obstacle. I will figure it out. I figure about $10K on hand wil do it. I may just need to reall keep the inventory turning.



    My deal is this. I am going all in with this if it doesn't work, I'll be out trash night. If the deals goes good we will do more fundraisers, open a yard, and look toward a million.

    Dream Big, Take Action, Work Hard, Pray...
