I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

While I totally agree, I have seen great stuff on the curb too, I ought to know, I used to work for a trash company and I've had to clean up some serious messes people have gone through scavenging, not that I haven't been scavenging a time or a thousand myself 😅

@KeepItReal33 10 ай бұрын

@@jamesalinio5277 , I agree. You can find some really cool stuff on the curb, but the dumpsters Mike visits have incredible stuff. You can pretty much predict what will be on the curb, but the dumpsters have some of the wildest stuff I have ever seen!!! 😂😂😂. I used to scrap, when I had a truck. I miss those days. I’m just reliving those days through Mike’s videos. 😂

@jamesalinio5277 10 ай бұрын

@@KeepItReal33 when I worked with the trash company, I'd go around the county to the six convenience sites to get the time sheets every two weeks, I'd check out the dumpsters and check the hydraulics for the compactors at each site, and call in what I seen that needed dumped, I would scavenge the construction and demolition dumpsters for any "good stuff" lol boxes of hard wood flooring, bathroom fixtures, pretty much anything I could use or even resell, it was getting the stuff out of the company truck into my car or truck is where I would get into trouble with the office, the manager kept saying that there was a policy that employees don't dig in the trash LoL I finally broke that rule when I had to work a city route one day and brought in a bunch of hunting magazines and a shotgun shell reloader, the manager had me bring it all in to his office where he started reading the magazines, long story short, he "bought" everything for $50 and I put it in his pickup truck to take home, I kinda miss that job, but I don't miss the BS I had to put up with on a daily basis

Mike you need a lift gate. A lot of scrappers and salvagers have invested in them. Saves you money less back strain , injury from lifting heave appliances and heavy anything. They say they made their money back easily. They can pick up bigger metals. Furnaces, hot water heaters…. Check it out. What you got to lose?

14:31 The black thing is not for flowers Mike. It holds wine bottles upside down to keep the corks wet and swollen. With screw top bottles and synthetic corks, it has become less important to store wine on it's side or upside down to keep the cork hydrated.

I just LOVE watching your Videos. You are a Professional !! I watched a couple of videos from “Dumpster Diving UK” and Mike I’ve gotta tell you, that man makes me want to pull my hair out !! I’m always shouting at him, Holy Crow, you’re leaving ALL THAT GREAT METAL, ALUMINUM, COPPER WIRE, AND BAGS OF HARDWARE BEHIND ???? I mean my gosh, he really drives me crazy. He looks over the top and if there isn’t anything in sight, he leaves 😮. When he does find open tops LOADED with scrap he starts out saying that he’s going to “get it alll it’s not going to the landfills”!! Then after several boxes, he’s winded and huffing and puffing and then he says “well that’s it”!!! But there’s Tons More. I know that you would spend a whole day or two on gathering EVERYTHING out of those bins. He’s so Stupid and he breathes so heavy you’d think he just ran a marathon !! Okay I’m feeling better now. Thanks for letting me vent ! Love you ♥️♥️♥️♥️🇬🇧🇨🇦
