USA ,wait intel U hear about Berden Old Mate PM of Australia, involment in Worlds Greatest Fraud of Australia Government Wealth,
Thanks so much for the hard work sharing the numbers. I guess in other words, brass may look like gold but it is not! And modern products use less and less brass.
Hoarder clean out, 40lbs of wire/brass statues, 40 lbs christmas lights
I wish I could have gotten all 7 appliances, only got the washer and dryer
You always get a thumbs up from me, Thubby. I'm from the future, and all I can say is be secure in your ventures. It'll insure a problem free trip.
When I was a kid my dad stopped for "every broom stick"
Scavenging for copper is an act of desperation.
Good video. I’m gonna try it on my neighbors house and see what I get
Why not knock on the door and ask??? Doesnt make sense
The roll off in the lady's driveway was densely packed. The stacked and flat orientation. The empty space on the end. It looks like a long term reduction of possessions project. The hauler will be surprised when it gets picked up. Edit 1: My opinion is Monet was nearsighted. Edit 2: The police in my town decided to crack down on crime, and started ticketing jay walking. One night, one of my daughters and the group she was in got stopped. The officer had to call for more tickets because he ran out. There was no more crime in our town...
That's one thing I like about living in the UK. There is a national database of all insured vehicles that the Police can check instantly. They also have instant access to details about whether the vehicle is Taxed and has a current MOT (a full yearly safety inspection). We are only required to carry our driving licence, although if we don't, they can access our photo licence as well.
This guy kills me! He won't strip wire clearly worth stripping to most of us, but will do RIDICULOUS amounts of work for BARLEY any recovery.
What’s the time lapse. I have 9 to do
If you’ve got that many then definitely try sell them as planters first! People love them, even if they don’t have the claw feet you can get $100 for each of them
Tickets suck!!😫 I mean, you might as well pile it high in the truck if you’re gonna get one. I hope you get most of those dropped.
What about the cancer bill
Where do you find the computer components at?
I bring them in whole, simply so i dont have to deal with the oil.
Where could I sell these components? Do you buy them? Because I have some stocks of old tech from 2010 to 2014 and last check they still work. It's brutally hard to sell them so I would like to pick them parts and sell them that way. It'd be great help for a freelancer like me with no job.
Your insurance person is like “ yea I’ve got you back…..officer he’s guilty…give him $1000 worth of tickets” My dad would call that a knucklehead tax….we do something wrong to ourselves ….that’s avoidable… life lesson tax. Keep your chin up, you’re doing good. Keep up the good work and good videos… maybe figure out how much in scrap that you will have to collect to pay for the tickets..
how far out is your court date? I feel like the only ticket they will drop is the forth one for a producing false documents or whatever they called it. not having registration doesn't seem worth fighting if you found out your registration was out of date. The first insurance charge and the unsecured load charge are probably worth fighting but I don't know if anything will change either way.
In my state in the US it’s all linked to your vin and plate technically you’re are supposed to have documentation but they mostly just care it’s valid
iit takes 1minute and a half
South Florida has tons of scrap
Possibly one of the only time I think you should've asked before diving in the dumpster instead of after.
100 ova what I thought
@11:55, some dog/puppy figures like the one in that metal bin as well as the one in front of your leg can be worth some serious money. not sure of these specific ones however.
Hope it gets sorted out. It was sad that the horrid cop showed up. 😂❤️💙
The "youre gorgeous" was a lai i aint gorgeous
Sweet video! Cool facts I did not know
get a plasmacutter will save you in the long run on gas and discs
tarp and secure load or pay the p;rice here in Alberta DOT will nail you repeatedly until you get it right .. your bicycle got squeeky better oil the chain son..
karma for not knocking and asking on private property perhaps, we would have the cops lining up with glee if they see us without a strap or rope here in Australia, better days ahead with a bit of luck, cheers
lawn mowers arent worth it unless it a working elecrtric vintage, otherwise you find their a dime a dozen. worth stacking if you have a large yard but than they begin to get difficult to process from rusting bolts.
In my state you can go before the judge and show proof of payment with policy, and it gets dismissed. Everything but the unsecured load would get dismissed. Good luck.
I found a lot of older dewalt cordless tools in bags, in a dumpster. The next day there was an employee still dropping the shop when i went by around 8:00pm. A different employee received his first anniversary with the company and the owner had replaced all of his tools with brand new ones since he had brought them with him when he started. All the old 18v tools still sort of worked, but the batteries were failing. i already had all the new 20v dewalt tools, but have them stashed away since there's an adapter available for the 20v packs can be used. i took small engine repair in high school. 9/10 they just need a clean air filter, oil filter, or spark plug re-gaped to specs, sometimes if they're older a new fly wheel or piston.
yeah dude insurance companies are trash. I had to call em twice to get them to send me a physical copy. Have to fight em for anything. I couldn't get better insurance this year due to 2 not at fault accidents. Both those were me sitting at a red light. Some jackass rear ending me while I was stopped at a red. I have seen tons of scrappers in my hood with a full load and no straps. Gotta fight insurance company to send you dated documentation. Also if you paid through a credit card or bank there should be a statement with the date and time for both reg and insurance. Only thing you should have to contest and lose is the straps. Maybe the judge will be cool. I hope.
Is putting the resin and paper saturated coils onto a grill and just letting fire do the cleaning for you not an option? You're unlikely to get anywhere near copper melting temperatures without using an actual robust furnace.
Certainly would work fine, but I’d have a pretty big black cloud with a pile this size
Why didn't you ask before you went in
You should have been respectful, and knocked on door .
Great Job Thub!
It was going so well ,sorry about the tickers ,sounds like you had a harsh police officer there ,hope you sort out the fines ,hopefully only get the fine for the load not Tied down ,as when travelling and roads that are not maintained you could hit a pot hole etc and items could fall out ,maybe show the video of how you secured the load .Wish you well ,love your presenting and explaining ,always a pleasure viewing your amazing videos .
Not sure how it works up there, but in US, you cannot be insured if your registration is not updated
Sorry they caught you tho
It’s actually the opposite here, you can’t register a vehicle if it doesn’t have insurance
Bummer dude. Sorry to hear about your run in with the po po. That always sucks. You're sure to have an upward karmic situation coming very soon. I'll be praying for that positive readjustment pronto. In the meantime be at peace not in pieces, ha.
Love the videos. I work at a scrap yard in the states as a shear/excavator operator. Never even thought about this as a hobby, but i see the appeal.
Just another super helpful video! This Trash Panda is very satisfied with all the amazing work you do! Thank you so much!
I’ve never seen dollars like that before
Spark test between 304 and 316 steel
Cool. So you bought a ton of junk, hurt your body and tools, got free cancer, and made about $22 in funny money. You're almost on par with door dash and Wendy's at this point!
Some time you have good days. And sometime you have bad days. But be great full that we are alive today. I’ll pray for you brother.
