- 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.

Don't Ever STOP Saying... "Watch yo heeeaaad"! Never gets old! 😁
I got to admit this guy is addictingly entertaining 😆 it's a shame I don't live around him I saw a dumpster today half-filled with old pallet jacks and I can't believe they're now throwing boxes of masks away but not that long ago had to spend a fortune online to find them
I miss the meows in the dumpsters

He's in Houston, Texas. Killer logo Mike!!!
You are so right about him being addicting. I could watch him for hours.
چ
I got addictive to your videos. I can't believe how much good stuff people throw away.
Yeah, and I thought I threw away good stuff!!! Nothing compared to this stuff from the Houston area!
It really is crazy sometimes
One man's trash is another man's treasure 😁

Mike, your work ethic and addictive positive attitude keeps me coming back for more of your videos. Thank you…
Awesome! Thank you!
When what to my wondering eyes should appear? A new MTS video making me grin from ear to ear! You know I love it when you use the sweep magnet!! You definitely got some good stuff & I love the metal pumpkins! Thanks for another great video!!
Just what the doctor ordered while I'm home getting over this cold. Thanks Mike!
Brilliant as usual! Mike please do a follow up of you processing that haul.
Another GREAT Mighty Mike and Dotty video. Definitely Quality over Quantity
Good stuff Mike. Brass, copper! I love when you find the good stuff that can be recycled and not wind up in a landfill. 👍👍👍👍🙂
All those "smalls" are the kind of things I love sorting through too. Get yourself a drink and a magnet and it's hours of fun.
Best of the best.other scrappers don t come close.. so much fun to watch.😊
It still blows my mind what people pitch. Thanks for letting us tag along. Cheers from Wisconsin!
Mike Mike Mike!!! Thanks for taking us along!!!! I appreciate you so much!!! Stay safe stay great!!! Keep up the good work!!!
This dive was Very Aesthetically Pleasing.
Always a pleasure watching your show
You are the most industrious person I've ever seen Mike. God Bless Ya!
I just loved this one Mike. I' m always hoping that you find more of the best. Things that make you squeal. You' re so funny. Lol. You keep us all entranced. Thanks! Watching it late, what a great way to relax and end the evening.
I love your videos. That's what I look for in the mornings and right before bed.
I finger test my taint stank at those times of day.
Good afternoon Mike. Congratulations. What a haul. So many treasures to choose from - what a jackpot, what a score in all those boxes and containers in that dumpster. Fortunately, none of those items in those cardboard boxes appear to be edible items.
I'll bet ol'boy hits a lot of dumpsters in a year. Some of them look familiar from his other videos but I bet he is always on the hunt for new ones. Keep them coming.
I have seen him comment that he hits about 70 dumpsters per night on his regular route and has hit up to 200 on some nights, I wouldn't be surprised if he spends 4-5 hours editing each video he uploads.
Thanks for taking us on another great trip! Where'd you get that awesome magnet? Appreciate you Mike!
Got it on Amazon… link in video description
@@MikeTheScavenger Thanks! Probably should have looked there first... doh
The answers to all of life's questions are found in a dumpster in Texas.... no wonder no one finds the answers! 😉😂 If it's in a dumpster MTS will find it! You found some great stuff tonight. Glad you kept that white half barrel, it will come in handy. Thanks for taking us along as you get in the down and dirty. Stay safe and GOD bless
Go Mike Go. So many dumpster so little time.
Mike I love that you love what you do 💕 Cause I love what you do my days would be terrible if I didn't have You I love you Mike 💞
Don't make his wife jealous!!
You're the narcotic of videos! I could sit here and watch videos like this one all day long! Lolololol! Keep up your awesome work, Mike!
That was an awesome trip! That brass, stainless and copper adds up really fast! Great couple of dumpsters to add to the treasure map for sure! Awesome trip!!!! Keep up the energy and kick butt Mike!
Thank you 😊
Mike, this was a real haul of smalls as Frank and Mike would say.
Love your fun videos ❤!! You are so funny and I have learned a lot watching your videos!!
Really nice haul of smalls, that will definitely all add nice weight at the scale.
Wow Mike, you scored some great stuff today. You prolly already looked it up but that Neewer bag looked like a large selfie light. And that was a good loking tripod in that bag. We need a followup video for this load.
Good video as usual. The answer to life, the universe, and everything is "42"
The 21:00 dumpster with the Swagelok parts represented a fair chunk of change if you were buying all those items new. Swagelok does make good stuff. We used them and Valco depending on the application. I liked both.
Didn’t kn it could be entertaining to watch someone ramble through a dumpster but you do keep it entertaining , and I do enjoy watching 🤪🤣
طك تل س
The dumpster you found the neewer is a ring light and the tripod goes with it. A lot of youtubers use them.
Good Afternoon My Good Bro Mike The Scavenger
Awesome haul Mike. You have a great day. 😎👊🏻
Man nice to be back, those three weeks I was in CZcams jail sucked but I will always speak truth. I watched 4 vids yesterday not sure how many I have left to catch up on but I'll savor them they keep til the next.
Legos are soo worth taking because they are such an universal toy and will be popular for thousands of years. The best part is no matter how old it is, it will fit and you can build something amazing :3!
i love when mike abuses the dumpster before gettin in!! 🤣
I too would love to sort all of that into catagories so I can relate to your love of sorting. Happy Holidays.
Thanks Mike. You always cheer me up.
Total pleasure 👍
Fun day!!!
Way to go mike 👍. You scored again. Woo hoo.🎉
Always awesome in your neck of the woods. Looks like a lot of stuff for the spaceship.
What a great video!! Loved how your magnet picked up the cardboard box of metal stuff.
NEWEER IS A LIGHT FOR PHOTOGRAPHY
You got it Mike
A lot of good ISH in the dumpsters today!!
I'm glad I'm getting ur newer videos now ,ur zest for everything gives me a lift brother thank you so much love and blessings 💚💚💚
Te apreciez foarte mult Mike.
SCAM WARNING - Hey Mike I am retired and have watched almost all of your diving. You are the champ diver. Hardly a dive goes
by that I don't see something I would like to play with. Got a notice from a site that looked like your site informing me that I had won
a prize. WOW, was I thrilled until I realized that I had seen Nothing of a contest or drawing on any of your Diving videos. Later
saw a warning issued by another U2r about this scam. (Shed happens) Keep it up. I love your work
You rock Mike!!!
Great finds Mike 😀👍❤️❤️
This was awesome finding all the scraps and such 😊
Cool stuff today Mike.👍👍💯
Mike you are my favorite watch,you earn every penny.keep it up I'll keep watching,bored in illinois.
Really enjoyed your video. God bless you 👍
Awesome run, Mike, and congratulations on knocking on 460k subs!
Between the non-ferrous and my favorite LEGO score a very great evening.
Love your videos Mike!
I can't believe what people throw away. I admire your work ethic, and you are in great shape, allowing a very fast pace work schedule. This video also inspired a deep political thought about hard working, individuals prospering in a free capitalistic society verses communist or deep social states. Thanks for the entertainment and thought provoking activity so early in my day.
Bună Seara Mike felicitări
Another great haul from the dumpster I do a little bit of scrapping got a washer and a mini fridge anyway thanks for sharing Mike
This one was super satisfying. Thanks Mike
Coolest guy on CZcams
Thanks mike a nother go haul 🤘☮️
Nice job Mike! I like finds like that too.
Every time I see Mike push a dust pan aside. I’m yelling take it take it. The dust pans in my house disappear on a regular basis.
Like other people loose socks
Just finished up watching all of your videos yesterday, so it was nice to open up youtube and see a new video dropped today!
MMMmmmmm Love that stainless
I'm a big fan of your channel. big hug from Brazil
Champion a new video from the Man 👍❤️💛💚
That's some quality stuff mike!
Definitely want to see a follow-up video after this
I love when you find brass and other non ferrous fittings. Can't wait for the follow up video! ❤️ From the Metroplex
The bag with Neewer is a ring light for photography. I believe.
A friend of mine sold his lake home and he gave me permission to take anything I wanted…I went mike the scavenger in that house🤣
Grabbed myself four boxes of old 90s style ceiling lights on the side of the road this past week. All brass with aluminum bases. I was pretty happy.
Cheers Homeskillet
You the man. ❤️💙
The gowns and masks would be great for people that do painting
Love the dumpsters after the trade shows. All that stuff leftover can’t be taken on the plane ride home so they scrap everything!😅😊
Most definitely excellent video with great content thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother
Very aesthetically pleasing.... tooooo funny!!
Nice haul Peace
Great job
Greetings to you, the channel manager. I am an Iranian and I have been following your channel for 2 weeks now. Why do Americans throw away this amount of valuable items? I saw the electric cover in the trash cans of your country You point out that there is no such model in my country, and there is a weak domestic and Chinese version of it. With this amount of extravagance in America, I think there should not be any poor people in America. In short, I am your fan and I am happy to meet you and your CZcams channel. May you be successful and victorious. May the people of Iran bless you, the people of America. God bless you🇮🇷🤝🇺🇸
This is way better than anything on TV., Mike you could sell your forearm space to advertisers.
Neewer is great lighting equipment.
I think if you take the circle thing out it is likely a light ring for photography.
I wish more people were like you. Tearing up that check. My mom was not so lucky they took 75dollars.
Does anyone else miss the old bmx dumpster runs ?
Hey Mike love me some MTS, scrapy scrap my friend
I can feel it calling in the dumpster tonight. Scribbits!
wow what a find in those dumpsters.
i am sure there are some fixtures and fittings that you can use.
That Neewer studio light was a nice find!
Mike..you are awesome
I went dumpster diving today and found a $50 water cooler
