Got a strong client

I went to Arizona at the end of April with my real job to go help train some people to do that job they need to do. The section was opted out to another company and they were apparently using illegal immigrants to do the work. Well our company decided to have its own people do the job and had people from different distributions go down to help them out.

I was there for 3 weeks. My first week down there, my wife calls and said that she has a guy that I need to talk to NOW. She gave me the number and I called. Come to find out, he is the basically the township supervisor and he seen my wife at the store and noticed the decals on the truck that said we remove metal. I set up a meet with him for the day after I was scheduled back home and went to see him.

in 3 trips I scored about 1,700 pounds in scrap. Got a electric weed eater, hedge trimmer, and heavy duty flex ladder out of the loads to. Most of his clients are older ladies with no use for these items. and he does all yard work for them and had better items.

Money off scrap and then sold the others for $90 total. Not bad. The guys said he will call when he gets something and I just go pick it up. He is getting ready to change out 3 water heaters, 2 stoves, and 3 washers and dryers. I can't wait to go pick these up.

Thats great man. Good job!

congrats tj....have fun with those appliances...where are you on the debate...take the copper out of the motors or sell as is ??

I pull the copper out. Couple quick cuts with grinder and a sawed off regular screwdriver for punching copper through. Quick work for me and every cent I can get, I like.
