    The amount of stuff you find is incredible. In my country the competition is so big and the e-waste regulations that strict that there is almost nothing interesting to find on the street beside of small amount of streel. I did street scrapping for around 2 month in Japan but it was not so also not as lucrative as what you show in this video.
    In Japan I basically took abosutly anything, because also a toaster or fan could be sold as e-waste for steel price.
    I don't know how expensive the life in Australia is but based on my experience in Japan, street scrapping on this scale is possible on every day of the week, I would say it pays better then a regular office job.

    Ben great videos mate🤘, I started to pick up the odd thing and after the items I have been able to find ( luckily), I started to do the computer and Electronics thing for metals to make jewellery with. But after a while and I can't count the amount of different computer systems and gaming consoles, ie commodore 64 with eveverything ,cassette driver,floppy drive and joysticks with about 11 games on tape ,all originals from the 80s . But I was able to spot some server boards, which are complete with routers ,power ,everything for a business with 100s of computer users. A gentleman who had shipped these systems from Qld to Vic $1000s to get them here. I believe he just wants to retire and fortunately for me I now have about 5 different servers that are working and worth thousands and thousands and that is not installed! I have worked with a friend who was a certified computer technician and I have experience in running the cabling system for the server's. I am now trying to find businesses that need unlimited access to computers as 1000s of outlets and, routers ,drivers ,etc. So scraping has become a lucrative business for me to make a decent income for a house deposit that I had never considered before because of my Health and Disability benefits I have struggled with. So I hope that my luck will be the start of us who are just trying to survive on pensions to get something for the effort that is involved in scrapping. You're looking like you are going to be successful or more successful and you're videos hopefully get others excited about what is possible. I think it's great that you have been showing others that just because other people throw out things it's not disrespectful to take whatever they don't see value in but I know that it's possible to make a decent supplement to a pension that is not sustainable and not nearly enough to live a normal life. Keep going mate when this Virus is under control at least some people are not doing anything but winge that they are living in poverty, but unless they are going to have a total different approach to solving money and and you're showing them that they have nothing to lose in trying to do whatever it takes for a better life than they are experiencing now. I'm hoping that you are the inspiration for others. Aswell as making a better income , meeting the people who don't mind taking the time to speak about the reasons behind the reasons why they throw out things that are sometimes brand new and the best is the range that is suitable for everyone. You could easily furnish a home with the items thrown out because maybe it's just not economical to take a perfect lounge overseas,or interstate ,costly moving a house full to a new residence. Love playing the videos and watching what you leave behind that someone else could use. Well done buddy I hope you get what you're after and I don't see change in the near future, more and more people have to sell and move . Unfortunately the Virus is going to leave alot of good hardworking people unemployed and unable to pay the mortgage they have been, so good Health and Good Scrapping. Bye🍻 ⌨💻💰

Safely prong the inside thingos out of those caps and then its total aluminium. Piddling amount, but I cut those caps in two and fold them and insert them into those aluminium bottles, like the Red Bulls, and totally fill up several aluminium bottles to have the vicarious amusement of a tidy batch of aluminium. i could do that also with aluminium cans but I just get the deposit on those without further ado. The aluminium bottles are also deposit worthy, but ever so rare where I am.
