ScrapBilly here:
Pardon my manners for not introducing myself earlier.
I been scrapping off/on most my life, but bought a Pick Up earlier this year and been doing it heavy ever since . I have a family of six with 2 in college. I have a day job and try to work scrap in as much as possible. I find the different catagories of metals my biggest learning curve, knowing this helps me to sort out as close as possible for when I get to the scales. I found some people I know just dont share my enthusiasm for this. I given up trying to convince the naysayers. I love to hear "Oh you'll take that" or "do you want this" I also am almost 50 Y.O. and many years has made me wiser. I would never been able to get a washer/dryer into a bed of a full size PU 20 years ago all by myself found it is more brains than braun. Love when an old lady comes out to help me with a fridge or something large and I am able to flip it into the bed with little effort using leverage.
time vs. reward has also been my latest battle too. Do I break down spending 10-15 minutes to get another 3-4 bucks or just get on with things and go get more?
I got 2 pick ups now and just got a deal on my first trailer (see post in tools/equipment).
Looking forward to posting more and helping out with what I can. I love the unlimited potential of it. I have had to "pass" on few items/deals cause I just couldn't do them or move em.
good to be among like minded people here,
Billy
