    What's up Scrappers???

    Figured I'd introduce myself. I run a recycling company in Washington state. When the winter got ugly and slow I found myself here trying to figure out how to create more profit. Our business operates in multiple cities/areas. My friend started it in February of last year. I started in October of last year in a different area. The prices sucked, the weather sucked, blah blah blah. I moved across state. This site has led to quite a bit of thought and answered some questions for me. This has helped me and helped my friend in the original city. As for me I have only been in business here for 5 weeks. I appreciate the info and general attitude here. I have wanted to respond to multiple threads but wasn't registered. Couldn't ask for a better 5 weeks. I have been busy enough since start (in the new place) that I'm finding it hard to take care of the other business needs. At any rate, Thank you for the information so far. Hoping I can be a useful member of the community. We have people here operating on all levels. I think this leads to good discussions and thought.



    Enjoy
