- 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.

Out of all the scrapper I watch you are by far the hardest working one on you tube.
I agree 💪💪
👍🏼❤👍🏼❤👍🏼❤👍🏼❤😭😭😭😭
It is amazing what people throw away
My man Mike, you feeling ok bud?? You seem really tired and in lots of pain? You take care of yourself buddy, I don't want you on injured reserve. I can dumpster dive with you when I am feeling down and we all need our number 1 Scavenger dude. You do so much for the environment and you do so much for your subs. We all love you bro.
Sounds fine to me
Exactly what i was thinking last 2 videos....normally he doesnt sounds like that. He alwayse jump in and out like a jojo :) that scary severe pain but crazy nice dumpster at 36 weeee...you really needs to take care of you Mike.
Sounds a little tired. Maybe some allergies?
Is the pollen season coming in!
@@superchuck3259 I thought he sounded tired too.
He's the best. Take care Mike.
With all that is happening in our world these days, I take comfort in knowing that my Texas neighbors like Mike are on the hunt for items that have no place in a landfill forever. Thanks Mikes for your efforts in keeping these items out of the landfill.
Great job also hats off to your wife for supporting you.
I’ve recommended they do a video together
I need a wife like that
❤😭😭❤❤😭😭❤😭👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Love seeing the wife out there helping to hold you down she is definitely a keeper...🙏🏽❤💪🏽💎
That admiration comes from Australian as well, you inspire us all so look after yourself mate the world needs you.
Damn Mike, you sure have been busy lately. And we sure have been liking it! Keep diving in them dumpsters and we'll keep sliding in there with you.
Thanks for the ride along.
👍🏼😭👍🏼😭😭👍🏼👍🏼😭😭❤❤❤❤❤
You are Always so upbeat. I just love watching and listening to you. Your wife is one Very Lucky Woman. ♥️🙏🌈🇨🇦
That electronics dumpster was pure fire 🔥
You are my favorite scrapper to watch! I always look for your videos. When there isn't one I'm sad. lol Keep up the great work. That was an epic amount of wire and stuff you pulled out. Looking forward to your next video!!!
That was a ton of wire!! Can you say a dumpster stimulus check?! Lol wow
Love watching your adventures but it's hard to watch when you find a dumpster so full and we, I think I can speak for others, we can't come through the screen and help you fill up Dottie.
Remember Mike you are one of the good guys!
Back with my favorite scavenger. Scrappyscrappy doo ty Mike stay safe
Yep ya got Dottie real close. Don,t mess with her paint 🤯🤯❤
🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
Jewelry got my attention. The fact that it was dollar store stuff immediately lost it.(LOL) It's where it belonged. But that wire dumpster? Dang, son!
I would definitely watch a timelapse of you sorting all that out.
Excellent scores Mike you become a real professional scrapper I haven't watched in about a year didn't have internet PS I like the way you learn to pull the truck right up to the dumpster
whenever i'm having a less than productive day, i'm reminded of one of my favorite lines from the movie the
big lebowski, "sometimes you eat the bear, and sometimes the bear eats you.". first part of the vid, the bear was gnawing on ol' mike, but by the end mikey was kicking back, patting his tummy and picking bear out of his teeth. good times.
I really admire your work ethic! Great job young man!
My friend doesn't understand a single word of you, I'm Brazilian and I don't speak English, but I watch your videos every day, and I hope you find a box like this, I was very happy for you, one apr
You are BY FAR my favorite!!! I love how committed you are! You are positive, fun, and I am obsessed with how excited you get! Awesome entertainment... and I love it when you do voices🤣 Keep up the great work!!!
He knows how to keep it real
Awesome pick. It's unreal what a wasteful society we are. So much useful items in the trash.
I like your scruples Mike. If it's not in the dumpster or close to it chances are its not up for grabs. Nothing like an honest scavenger!
Snippets, wires and such, with a hint of scrapitty scrap scrap. Using the shtick,,,Allright, hiiiiiiiiiii yaaaaaaaaaaaa. Got to get that boom boom scrap.
You have the same level of curiosity that I do. I am loving watching you dig around in the trash. You know you weren't going to leave piles of wires in that dumpster even though you said you were quitting about 7 times.🤣
Holy MOLY MIKE!!! I think I sit here for 5 minutes shaking my head back and forth in disbelief at that epic-ass dumpster, watched for 5 more minutes still shaking my head, how stinking cool was that deal!!
Been along time since you had a great run...good luck Mike. You are great
Ohhhh I almost cried when you threw those shale (rock) samples away !!! 😊🌈🇨🇦
I use sample tiles of various media for mosaic tables, clay pots, frames, etc. Great for crafting. Even my workshop bench is covered. Fab finds.
Excellent find Mike…All that not going into a landfill. Koodoos to you.. 🎉😂❤
Your skill of tossing,throwing,heaving,dropping your treasures into your truck are commendable! Impressed every time!
Mike since I saw your first video I’ve caught the bug! I do a little diving in my home town and even road-side on the way to work and back! Keep up the good work and be safe
Mike can you show us how you prepare all your great stuff for recycle?
He does subscribe and watch all his past videos
Watch till the end, he talks about the stuff from the night before!
Give the class samples to your wife for her designs projects she like to do
You put a good dent in those dumpsters! Great work!!
Get them snibits yea yea yea. God bless you man✝️
You missed that 120min 8mm Maxell cassette at 9:34, still wrapped.
Damn. Worth at least $120 to the right collector too. What a shame :(
Yeah, Mike should pay attention to the old media.
Love the videos! That was a great haul!
“Alright, I think we’re definitely closer” 😂😂😂
Sounds like you might had a cold or sniffles, take care of yourself we don't want to lose you. Thanks Mike..
Never underestimate the ingenuity of a crafter!!
Would love to see the marathon how you process all this staff and what's at the end. At scrap yard.
The glass samples you could make a glass wall for the garden.
For manifestation? What are you "people"?
Mike
I miss finding electronics like the cameras. We have lifts on the side to hoist bulk in the truck. Mike you need one of those lifts. Either crank or battery to lift the heavy items.
I do have someone that will purchase all your cameras and monitors. There are 3 places that would purchase your items. I introduce you to them and I walk away.
The crane on the side of truck is a good idea. I know what I’m saying as I’m recovering from a spine surgery after lifting a little too much.
That transmission is worth around 300$ to the right buyer. I got 7 of them from work 2 days ago
Hi from New Zealand.
More than a few snippets this time mike!
Awesome night dumpster diving dude!
You know where the stuff is.
Until the next the dive, Cheers.
That wire dumpster was a scrappers dream.
You Rock Mike have Fun. Be Safe.
Get that Stuff do your cleaning.
Hollar Topshelf John
The dumpster with all the needles I spotted at 8 mm cassette tape still in the wrapper
That was incredible to watch! Good job!
Want to see how much you get bro much love Scotland 💘
Make sure to drink plenty of lime juice when you dumpster dive for several months ,it will help keep the scurvy away
I’m hooked!…saw a hot water heater lying on our neighborhood curb today and thought of you!….”Mike would like this!”😀
Enjoy watching you the most on the tube. You are the hardest working dude.Just dont over do, take care and be safe.
Jeeeeeez!!! I haven’t found a dumpster like that in a couple years 😳🤤 CHA-CHING! 🤑🤑🤑
That dumpster kicked Yo asssth!! 🤣
the lil scavenger that could!
HeY Mike...you feeling ok? You seem sluggish tonight. Take care big guy!

This haul made me smile so big for you! Just wow!
Get all the scrap!😁
Cool stuff Mike 👍🏻
Alot of crafters would love those samples for projects.
Very nice video mike i love your any video.
That was an amazing dumpster. That is the first time I've seen you not back up to a dumpster. Looked like extra work lifting over the truck wall
🎼WIRES, and CAMERAS, and 🎼PLUGS !! Oh My !!!🎼😁😁🤣🤣. 🎵 🎤♥️🙏🇨🇦
If it's free MONEY GOT TO SCRAP UP!! The scrap Ninja.
Ever think of putting a strong magnet on the end of the stick? Maybe wrap a bag over it so cleaning little magnetic dust and little parts off easier...
Good job.
Love it wen you run into throws real big dumpster with a lot of stuff in it. It's a good payday for you . And the hole time I'm cheering you on.! Come.on mike.! You can do it I've got fath in you.!!
Wow that dumpster was from the wire gods!! Would be interesting to see how much that was all worth!
When you’re not running around jumping at the dumpsters what do you do for a living?
Hi. Mike. The Jolly ScrapMan. Stay safe.. Watching. From Philippines
@4:16 it’s like he is rowing a kayak thru a garbage river. 😂
WHAT A SCORE!
you got me back into dumpster diving I was doing in high school because my friend found a NES with games on the curb
That dumpster was blessed by the scrap gods. 😇
" burritos"! 😬😂😂😂
WOW...WOW...WOW!!!!
All the glass samples could be sold on eBay to ladies who do nails like me! We use them mix acrylic paint and gel polish colors on the tiles can also be sold as long as there is a gloss to one side!
Those glass samples are wonderful!! As. Polymer Clay Artist I so want those! O’ to be able to go back in time!!
Wutzamatter Mike? Ya soundin a little geezerly. You’ll be ready for AARP.
Get it ALL Mike get it ALL
Just a tip Mike, it's easier to pick something up if you're not standing on it at the time!😸
Maik😄 found big money in the navigation container and metal and aluminum cables💵💵💵
Dang...all those electricals😀👍
Love it when you make a good haul
JACKPOT MIKEY!!
Clapping like a seal....makes me laugh..need that....
Awwww....they love the pond!! That is great that you have given them their own swimming hole! Take care! Big, ""WOOF-WOOTFS"" to the hospital unde!! Pearce to All.........💜💙💜💙💜💙💜
I usually wont click on a video that's over 10 min. but here I can enjoy an hour of pickin'.
You have a big day with all that stuff
What you should have done Mike, is get in your truck, drive around the block and get back in that dumpster. It would seem like a different dumpster then and you would be recharged, lol
Keep the video coming and all the scrap you can find in the dumpsters👍
Friday means dumpster dive day (y) watching mike getting some snibbits and scraps yhaeaaa baby!!
Alright , alright, alright. It all adds up and it's free money. No scrap left behind. They need to stop putting leaves in there, we can't see. All of those wires from the electronic store I could hear the cha ching.Not holy cow, it's holy shit. Good to see you Mike. Be safe and as always love the videos
What a haul with the wire!!!
💲♻️💲♻️💲♻️💲
Where dat magnet 🧲 Mike?? 😄
Come on Mike, don’t wimp out. Grab it ALL. You’re going to have lean nights when you’ll think of this dumpster and Wish you had grabbed it all. You can just set aside some for micro scrapping for another night. Also just a suggestion, when you fill a box, why not just dump it out into Dottie and bring it back to fill again ?? Love ya !! ✌️😘🌈🇨🇦
Mike in heaven: look at all the wires!
Nice job on saving our planet ☺️ my kids thank you,that's alot of wire😂✌️
Awesome score!!
