Another day another dumpster!! Today was another gorgeous weather morning so we just had to go treasure hunting. It started out a little slow, maybe we picked the wrong neighborhood? Either way we kept on truckin' and things turned out pretty darn great! Treasures and scrap metal, everything a growing dumpster diver needs.
Wire stripper I use: amzn.to/3sirg18
The motorized stripper: amzn.to/3y0JMuQ

I've enjoyed your content for a couple years now. I typically watch on my smart TV. Fun Fact, I can't subscribe (or at least don't know how to) when watching that way, so I logged in on my phone just to subscribe. I don't do that. Ever. That's how much you, and your sickeningly optimistic attitude, has inspired me. Kudos to you sir, and please keep doing your thing.

Hey Thub have to tell you my scrapping adventure today up here in Edmonton. Went to scrapyard today with a small load. Then started filling truck back up. And I came to this one dumpster and there sitting in the dumpster was a young Down Syndrome Boy. I got him out of the bin and tried to find out if he knew his number or knew where he lived. He did not speak well and I finally understood his name but he could only Sign information and I do not know sign language. I called police and they had been looking for him for awhile. When the police were ready to take him home I asked him for a hug. He said yes and I whispered to him. “Please Promise me You won’t Run Away again. He hug me tighter and nodded. Sweetest kid with no fear. Felt really good to be back out scrapping. The officer Thanked and said Thank God you were Dumpster Diving. I think I just developed a rapport with the police. Today was Awesome. A Kid Home Safe with His Family. And then I watched The Oilers kicked Butt in Ice District. Love Ya Brother

Your stuff is just so good, I wish we could be blessed with 2 videos a week lol Maybe if you did a "side quest" video a week, which can be anything from random clips helping friends/other background snippets or the more "experimental" stuff like excursions or melts of random and interesting object. Hecc even the mostly unedited "scrap-a-longs" sorting through the many bits you find. Just My few cents, I always enjoy what you post so keep doing the thing your own way \o/

I found a rolloff with the scrap wire of new house build and filled a large tote with the copper wire scrap. A year later there was 4 outside and office build that was getting renovated for post pandemic revival. All the wires had to be redone. I took 2 car loads before they fenced off the back parking lot and moved all the dumpster back there. I'm still working on then office haul when i need a quick $100-$200.

I have a bunch of 4/0 Aluminum Service Entry Cable. That is 3 insulated conductors and a bare AL conductor under a core wrap and PVC jacket. I thought the jacket/wrap removal would be an upgrade. I had a 6.5 foot piece that weighed about 6.8 lbs. The scrap yard currently gives $0.25 USD/lb for the cable, as is. They give the same price for the insulated conductors and $0.46 USD/lb for the bare AL. I stripped the piece and forget about the time for now. The untouched cable is worth $1.70 USD. When I stripped it, the components were only worth $1.58 because there is about 1 lb of trash that you are throwing away that is worth $0.25 and the trash disposal cost (for me) is $0.03. The premium I get for the 0.75 lb of bare AL amounts to $0.16. Net Loss for me on materials alone, not even counting the few minutes it took to strip. Maybe some scrap yards would value the insulated conductors at a higher price per lb. I would need about a 10% premium per lb over the cable price on the insulated conductors just to break even on the materials.

If there was a market for used bed frames in my area, I could make literally tens of dollars every week. I find 2-5/week. No one wants them, and most every place offers the cheap steel frames, a new one every time you buy a mattress. So I collet a couple dozen of them, break them in half, and sell as prepared #1. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The bagster was all marijuana grow op equipment. The tube fans are for exhaust ducting. Slap a cord back on that and sell for $30. They're pricey. Those heavy big cylinders with small holes all over are carbon filters. Most of the weight is trash unless you open them and empty the contents.

M8 here in the USA we call Lumex , Romex or 65% (that's the return in copper.) do you strip it , or sell it as is ? With your microwaves , do you remove the magnets and stack them or sell them ? I usually save them or sell them for about $5 USA dls , and I've seen them as high as $10 dls for the pair. Well keep up the good work. God bless y'all.

Sounds like you’re doing alright with the magnets! I haven’t saved them for a little while, I’ll generally just have a peek to see if the transformer is half copper but otherwise the whole thing goes in the shred. Romex is an interesting one, I did an experiment to see how much I could make stripping it down and I don’t remember the exact number but I was disappointed. That was just using a knife to remove the really easy outer layer and bringing in the #1 insulated the way they were. At this point I pretty much don’t bother stripping anything smaller than 10ga, but the larger romex (yellow jacket in my area) is still worth peeling the outer off.

Hey Guy, sorry,I didn't get your name. I'm Howard. I got a question for you. First of all,I do commercial HVAC. I scrap whatever I can BUT I have a question maybe you can help me with. I have been collecting compressor contactors (relays) for years. I have 2 big barrels filled. These parts have ALOT of plastic,but also have a nice coil of copper. I slam them on the ground and they pop out easily. My question is this. Besides the copper windings, I heard the contact points have silver.I'm pretty sure circuit breakers do too, especially the old ones. Do you know anything about that ? I get conflicting stories about this . Also, the metal that these contact points are fix to, is a brassish ,copperish color. I know it's not either one. What type of metal is this ? One more question. I also collect Condenser fan motors from AC units. In the past,I scraped them as is. Would you take the time to take apart these types of motors to get the copper out ? Is it worth the time ? I know 1 thing that I learned REAL quick. It's NOT worth sawsalling and disc grinding a fully hermetic compressor apart to retrieve the damn copper. Lol it's almost impossible ! Thank you for your time, Howard Haraway, Fairless Hills,Pa.
