Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. 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!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

@lorireed8291 Жыл бұрын

It amazes me that all of that cardboard in the dumpster where you found all of the servers wasn’t recycled. It would be interesting to take a dumpster like that, you get your stuff and then go piece by piece to see what else could be recycled, used in some other way, etc., and then see what’s left that’s truly trash. We can all do SO MUCH better!

Hey Mike, I appreciate you recycling all that metal. I wonder how much metal you recycle in a year. I don't care how much you make, that's your business, just the weight. I think what you're doing is awesome. I drive down the streets and see tons going out in the trash. If I had a pickup truck, I would do the same. Love your channel and videos. Take care and be safe.

@davidbuffington5944 Жыл бұрын

@OldsmobileCutlass1969Va Жыл бұрын

Try picking up a small trailer to pick up what you can. If you can't take large loads in, break things down as much as possible to maximize your payout. I scrapped for years strictly out of my Oldsmobile 88!
