Newbie Here!

I've spent 14 years installing windows, I've scrapped a lot of aluminum when it's convenient. Anything steel or cast iron I would give to my local scrap man. I'm not installing anymore. I still work with windows and doors, but I wear slacks and clicky shoes to work now.

Seldom do I work more than 6 hours a day, and I've been tempted to hit up the many dumpsters I drive past every day. I still have my longbed work truck with a lumber rack that doesn't get driven but once a week. I figure why not put my truck back to work and why not kill some time in the early mornings and afternoons dumpster diving.



I doubt much aluminum or copper makes its way into these dumpsters, probably looking at mostly steel. I haven't ever scrapped out in the wilderness, I have only recycled material that I have personally extracted from people's homes.

So that's my spiel. I don't have any crucial questions I need answers to, I figure I'll learn as I go. Look forward to browsing and searching for info on here.
