    Good to see another Montana scrapper on this forum! I agree winters can be brutal, not to mention scrap prices typically take a dive in the winter as well. I try to combat this by staying active. I have a Facebook page that I try to post to once a week or so. It helps keep people engaged and it is free advertising. I also post my services on the local FB buy sell pages. I don't get a lot of traffic, but every little bit helps. Do you post on Craigslist? I have seen an ad for the Billings area. Is that you? My only other advice is to reach out to customers you have serviced in the past and see if they have anything. People seem to hibernate up here in winter and sometimes if you prod nicely they can come through for you.
    I see there are a couple of other threads on the forum covering this topic. Try searching winter scrapping and see if you can get some more ideas! Happy Scrapping!
