    Red face Hello from Cleveland-

    Hi, my name is Bitya-
    I kinda stumbled on the scrap thing by accident- took a load from my rental house- and the pay wasn't bad for less than 3 hours work & a little gas. I have done several loads since (taking adavantage of having my trailer) and gotten burned once already (from now on I say when I'm lined up on the scale). I think it's kind of fun and sometimes my 11-yr-old son helps. Theres so much to learn still and any tips, etc. would be really appreciated

    Definitely check the ticket. I once walked out minus $35. Boy I was glad I went back.

    "check the ticket" should be one of our motto's. I had a bucket of #2 and they paid me for insulated...caught it before I drove off...thank goodness.
