    Cool Hello future

    Hello fellow scrappers and recycles.My name is Matthew Green. I have a young company named Greenway Environmental. Unfortunately, I am a resident of the State of Indiana,Lol! I work alone, and have enjoyed learning the hard way, the business of recyclingC E D's and the residual elements involved with the process. I have been rolling along for 2 years, have lost jobs, lost friends, and almost lost my family in the process. But the things I have learned about myself, and the profession, have served myself and my neighbors in Indiana quite well. I have not been able to find outlets for reimbursement or monetary value due to fact that the full scope of this occupation is a 20 hour a day reality. I hhave recently had to cut back my intake due to lack of space, money and the outlook on getting value from materials in general. I seek employment in the recycling electronics field. I am a former tradesman for 20 years. The housing industry took it out of me. I have cached most of my materials, and I am eager to finish the process, but not until I can maximize the value. Not for greediness, but to prove that this is not a joke or sham to the people who don't understand and have turned away. I didn't become this for profit. I do this because the soil and waterways in Indiana are becoming graveyards to toxicity. My son will be spending a lot of time there in the future. I cannot leave him wealth.... But I can clear a path that helps protect him and others alike. I plan to do that very thing. Please feel free to contact me anytime. I am a drummer in 2 bands. I love to cut up and laugh. I don't judge anyone or think my **** doesn't stink. Lets keep it mutual

    I had to read this twice, I thought you meant you were a resident of the grey bar hotel of Ind.
    Anyway, if your doing any recycling then this is where you need to be for any info related to it.

    That would definitely explain the "lack of space."

    Yes, I'm from the northern part of Ind. That's about 45 miles straight west of Ft. Wayne./ After you get about 10 posts you will be able to PM (private message) people.
