    New and EXCITED

    Hello From Wisconsin,



    Started scrapping for some cash when I lost my job, and found that I love doing it, to me its like searching for lost treasure. Started a small business doing free pick ups here in the Milwaukee area, so far so good, I am trying to get my hands on whatever I can, I do have quite a bit of computer scrap and am trying to arrange pick ups from local business. so far that is my story, I have big dreams and really want to make this a successful business and make money, and help mother earth to be a better place for my future family.

    there's a whole scrapping degree here, it just takes time.
    We are just sharing all our experiences and everyone recycles differently.
