- 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.

It's always a pleasure watching you busting your butt out there scrapping what we toss to the curbside. Nice of you to trade the mower for the fridge, you are an awesome young man. Love watching your videos keep up the great work. Have a great day stay safe out there.👍👍👍
Great haul, It was good of you to trade the lawn mower for fridge, it shows what a kind man you are 😍
Mike Mike Mike !!!! Fantastic one today !!! That was so nice you gave that guy the lawn mower !!! Your such a great person !!!! Thanks for taking us along today with you!!! You are appreciated!!!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
That was a good swap because it gave you space on the truck. You are doing a community service.
Good way to start the week with Mike The Scavenger!
Yes, Mikey. You put a .22 round in the chamber, insert a nail at the end, pointed side out, and then hit (or pull the trigger) to set off the 22 round. It drives the nail into concrete. Nice of you to give that guy the lawn mower. It will give you a good name in that neighborhood to do things like that. Great video and keep up the good work.
I wasn't feeling good, but then here comes a video of Mike the Scavenger to the rescue and picks up my spirit. You always ask if the thing you see on the curb is for the taking when you see someone in the yard or garage. Stay safe, stay in the dumpster finding the next great thing for good money. Peace.👍🏻🧓🏻
Living vicariously through you man. Dang I miss doing this stuff. Had to pick up my guitar that my brother gifted me from the trash and start playing when I saw this video drop.
"Electricians haven't started yet". The art of scavenging
Mike you are one hell of a guy for trading that guy 🖖
I love how you just wing stuff into Dottie . These yards are so beautiful. You find so much nice things for garden’s.
Mike’s quickly moving to 430k well-deserved subscribers! Like, share, and tell your friends about Mike!
That one device there is what some people call a Hilti although that's not specifically a Hilty. It uses 22 caliber blank cartridges to drive Nails into concrete and steel.
Hilti dx shot fire is a game changer in construction. That orange handled is just a manual handheld one
Ramset.they use .22 cal. Blanks. Hilti uses .25 blanks.
Very kind to give the mower. 🙂
Nice day curbsiding Mike glad I went along for the ride see you on the next one hope all is good with the dogs
Most fun you can have watching y'alls computer screen. Thanks Mike
I’m amazed at what people can put on the curb to be picked up.
Mike the Scavenger - you are the best! You make me laugh so much with your metal candy dish -candy is dandy and the infamous bed rails that get you in your junk. Your enthusiasm at finding treasures is never ending. Keep up the good work!
FYI; the Remington is for shooting nails into concrete using a .22caliber blank cartridge
ONE MANS TRASH IS ANOTHER MANS GOLD!!! God Bless You. Thank you for sharing, it's very enjoyable.
Great video as always. Remember folks, I keep a few bed rails in my garage. They make great angle iron. Last summer a neighbor was putting up a new garage door opener. There was a wooden frame, cheaply built for the last one. Once he installed it he realized he needed angle iron to build something sturdy. I had him measure from beam to beam. The joists were 20 inches apart. I told him he had to help me in my garage. I have COPD and use oxygen so sometimes I need assistance. We went in and he said "What's that?" and I said "An old bed railing. We cut the two long pieces he needed. Then we cut four pieces the same length to fit to attach the garage door opener. We did have to use my drill press to drill some holes and I had more than enough bolts, nuts and washers to fit. We went back over and he installed it and got his door up and running. He laughed they were painted brown and looked great. So that's one bedrail that didn't go to the dump.
I went to the doctors today which is 15 miles away. On the way back I saw "FREE" so I stopped. Wow, they had a lot of clean buckets. I got 10 five gallon buckets without lid that had food grade quality. They had over 2 dozen 1.5 gallon buckets perfect for making patio pots. I took them all and was pretty happy with my find. Next year, I'll plant veggies in the all along the back of the house and reap the fresh veggies from home. (I talk a lot).
Cool stuff, Mike!
That Remington powder actuated tool is a nail gun and goes with that blue box of nails.
Yes that’s when you want to nail things into cement it takes a cement nail and you put a little cartridge in it and it shoots it into the floor
Ramset?
I was going to say that. You explained it better than I would've.
Love all your shows you are one hard working man and so kind and funny love your family of bull dogs
Love the videos Mike! I’ve been collecting up scrap cable from work, don’t know the differences between them like you do though
I used to have that same exact chandelier light years ago. Good finds!!
i just bought one of those 'ramsets' at an online auctions about two months back. great for setting 2x4 plates on concrete!!
The box of mails goes with the Remington 💚💛❤️👍
Find a set of drums and start a Junkyard Band. Call it the ..Scrappity Scrappers...
Powder actuated tool uses a small cartridge similar to a blank for firearms to propel a special nail into concrete. Handy for installing walls, or new lumber-type kitchen dividers your carpenter is building during your addition or remodeling project, etc., into pre-existing concrete floors. A variety of charges and nail packs in different sizes and power ranges are available.
Might be able to pawn it.
It's a nail hammer for cripes sake! Self explanatory!
@@genehasenbuhler2594 not really.
@@markfurman4386 evidently youve never held one in your hands- it's marked on the barrel and tells you what itis!
@@genehasenbuhler2594 I own 3, including both Remington hammer detonated, and the Hilti.
I love hard work. I can watch it all day.
Mike, just keep it coming and we will be here.
Love the Deftones reference to White Pony! Next time you go out and move on from a pickup you can FEEL LIKE MORE!
Love that 🐎 🐎 🐎 🐎 picture! Beautiful. And that guitar is going to make someone very happy come Christmas or a birthday. Thanks for taking us along. Stay safe out there.

Urban Minor, I love it! Thanks Mike
That was nice of you to give the man the mower good on you 👍
You are correct on the power driver. It uses a small 22 cartridge, no lead😁, we use it on the metal stud wall track to anchor in concrete .
it's all good !

that tool with the oregon handle is for setting walls in concert
Thanks for sharing be safe Love your energy
Yes Mike you put 22 blank cartridges\in there and shoot nails in to concrete. LOL some really cool stuff there
There's alot of other scrappers on CZcams but they can't be like Mike! Great video and good haul for curbside scrappin!
Love the horses too.
Oh man I love those crystals off that lamp
I bought some crystals from a chandelier last summer, at a place near me. They sell all kinds of stuff plus have a plant nursery, and landscape rocks and stuff. Awesome place!
My brother used to mow a 3 acre yard with one of those no gas push mowers, my dad would sharpen the blades with Chinese wet stones, it did such a good job. Of course it was the 70's and the blades came out easy
Hi mike. Thank you for taking us with you and all of your travels and dumpster diving. You're one of the best dumpster drivers out there. Take care and stay safe. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎🙂🙂🙂
1 of the best, he is the best. Mike da man!
The GOAT!
Like the Indian ( Costner' s ) friend, in Dances with Wolves said. " Good trade ?"" Well he asked. Good deal Mike, good trade. Nice to see you, hope it were every day. ( go back to reruns! ) everybody loves you Mike. Good guy!
Mike. My son said. I love him he’s cultured.
I think I saw a pair of FELCO pruning shears in the tool tote!
Always a pleasure watching you mike
Outdoor heaters in Texas….. lol 😳😂😂😂
Out door heaters in general 🤣😂😁
Some people would buy anything.
What's next backyard ac units?
Another Great video Mike,
Thanks for taking us along for the trio.
That ORANGE took looks like it is an "Explosive Power Tool" and yes they use like a .22 bullet but they can't be used in a gun. And they can clast Nails, and all sorts of tuff into concret,makes the job so much easier.
Take Care
Gordon - Australia
That tool is a Ramset, it drives nails into cement and steel beams, using one presently on a job securing walls to the floor in a basement reno

That thing is probably an impact driver. You can shoot nails into cement. We used one of those when we were putting in the base for a floor in our basement.

Blessings!!!!

legend big Homie
On those ACRs you should make a connection with the guys that put them in and throw them a piece for the ACR for the paperwork you need for the yard and when find others you can maximize your $ on them.
Window ac units on the curb. "Yes" Whole house ac units on the curb. "Unheard of in my areas of scrapping".
Thank you for taken the pictures I was cool
dottie needed some bling!!! Lol stay safe out there Mike. Angel from Norfolk VA. The tool that takes the bullet is for setting special nails too nail. Toe plate too cement floor.

Hey Mike that thing is used for putting nails into the concrete as you go put the frame up on a slab you put the nail on one side you put the round in the other and you can push down it shoots it off into the greenwood into the concrete for the framing and then you just go from there that building the shed or a house
