    New to scrapping from Vancouver, British Columbia!

    Hello, scrapping forum community,
    I am still in the planing process with this whole scrapping idea. By indulging in this forum website i have learned quite a bit, but still have a longs ways to go. I have hopes in starting a successful business, Instead of just earning some extra money. I have no background in this, and hoping i can obtain some tips and tricks of where to start off.

    Here are some questions i hope can be answered,
    How much capital and time am i looking at if i am pursuing this career full time?
    Should i seek a part-time or full time job related to metal recycling?
    Is there any education? Trade ? I should specialize in , to give me a competitive edge?



    Hope to hear from you guys
