- 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.

Dont swear when its heavy please.
Mike - every time you jump out of those open tops, my hip replacement screams!! Take it easy on those feet, knees and hips !! You will feel it in about 10 years!!
I think that everytime he does it
Hey Mike, thanks for the great videos. I don't know if you'll actually read this because this posting isn't exactly brand new but... that stuff that looks like corrugated roofing is actually used to pour cement on in multi-story structures.
I'm writing this as you're recovering from your surgical procedure. Good luck with the healing my friend. And remember, It may be true that your body is your temple but even temples need a little work every once in awhile.
Nearly choked on my egg roll when the tomato cage stole stick. Omg too funny
I wonder how his knuckles feel after punching the karate proof glass?
U ok
Yeah I'm fine
@@cawierin411 good :)
Mike I'm your biggest fan love the videos wish I could go dumpster diving with you one night your videos get me through tough times I have alot going on in my head and it takes over until I watch one of your vids the I feel calm thanks
That other scrapper turning up just proves the point that you have to take what you can when you can
Poor Dotty !! Getting shrapnel wounds tonight from that aim, might need to give her some TLC soon Mike 😂👍🏻
1:58 haha Okay, okay, Okay! The phrase formerly known as Alright, Alright, Alright! 😂
Mike keep a spare knife in Dottie & youll always have 1 close. Good video. Stay safe.
Now that was funny!!!! The dumpster grabbed your stick!!! Priceless!!!
Mike every time you launch something into Dottie. It’s a thrill. I always say SCORE!!! It would probably freak someone if they didn’t see you and something just flew out the dumpster and landed in Dottie.
The wife and i were scrapping in a neighborhood I haven't been to in a while. And turned the corner. And there was a scrapper there. Cool to see other scrappers out there.
I thought i was going to see a scraper standoff. lol
"Imma save my back this time"
Proceeds to use ax, using back, arms, shoulders.
Ha ha ha Mike is a paradox in a good way.
Those gray panels are either painted galvanized aluminum or steel. Can either be roofing or siding. I loaded trucks for a company that made stuff like that in my younger days.
When you see an open top, you gotta stop! Great line...new shirt idea?!
When saw those stainless doors, had an omg moment from last time. Lots of awesome scrapity scrap😂
Don’t know why I watch your videos, but it’s something I wish I could do now. Good luck
"get the gettings while the gettings are good" ... tee shirt idea !!
How many said Take the dolly?
"when you see an open top man you gotta stop" thats a tshirt right there!
Great job with this scrappy dumpster diving episode . Thumbs up and thanks for sharing your experience. Good money for MIKEY.
Mike, if you park close to the dumpster then you can use your vehicle to help get into and out of the dumpster and it will be close to put your finds in the back!
A good rule of thumb, if it's in a dumpster, it's fair game. Grab the dolly.
Never parks next to the dumpster, loves throwing 12 feet🤣 enjoy watching more than Netflix
Time to invest in a cordless sawzall Mike!
“I hear thunder.” Then proceeds to grab a metal stick and lifts it in the air. LOL
"O-OH, MIKE'S ON THE PIPE AGAIN, THIS COULD BE THE START OF THE END OF "MAGIC MIKE" SHUUUCKS.
those small empty wire spools are too useful to leave in the dumper. they're really handy for storing garden hoses, extension cords and air hoses. i have about half a dozen of them i use for just those reasons. it also makes hauling and using them on the jobsite a lot easier. i just make a letter G shaped bail from rebar for them so they are easy to carry, and make a handle out of a bolt and some pvc pipe on the open end to hold while i wind and unwind the things on them. my lady used to put her christmas lights on them so they didn't morph into a ball of evil when they weren't being used.
Man, i wish we had pallets like those noce ones being thrown away here. I would have loads of good lumber.
Chinês a comer
Keep hitting that stuff
Your Friend Topshelf John
"GOTTA BE STRONG" ? BUT HAS NIGHTMARES WITH DOORS...HAHA

Your so brave, still did a good haul thanks mike..😊😊
Mike is working hard for his money
I like your videos mega and I hope you keep doing so your videos are better than tv 😂👌🏻
Those pieces of sheet metal are for pouring cement on forms with space underneath. Not sure of the exact name but they are used in building multi-level buildings and such. We use it to do porches where I live.
Mike you should have a drill and whatever you think tool wise is important to have, and keep a set of them on your truck at all times.
Nice
Thank you for working smarter not harder....Dottie looks good in Ketchup.
Def loled when u threw the snippets at the cab of the truck...
That Axe work was pretty cool!
Another Dumpster that gives on giving - well done Great Score indeed - Axe versus Door - Door Lost - we love it - keep Safe and many Greetings from us in Australia !!!!
You need to add light to back of truck for night picks.🚛
Mike being a Beast with that Ax😂😎🤟
Here's mikey!😉 savage scraping
That pipe alone makes scrap yard worth while.
as a former homeless person, it hurts when Mike passes up food.
Sup diggy smallz :) back in my fay i always painted "maintenance" on both bed sides and on the tailgate to make it look like i was supposed to be there. Just a thought to consider. Keep the videos coming my friend :)
Drill, saws all, extra batteries, knife , tools of the trade.
You found a dolly for your Dottie haha
Definitely hit the jackpot there with that load Mike.
Get it mike.! Get it.
Here's Johnny!
Looks like them metal panels are the same material they use to cover windows during the hurricane. Looked to be cut in to window size, other than a roofing size.
Nice work looking forward to the scrap run
Got to love those open tops.
Awesome haul again Mike. I be all jelly 👍✌👊
Mike the scavenger turns to mike the tornado chaser? 🤣✌
Great finds, enjoyed your video 😅. Be safe and God bless
Mike, suggestion, get a really strong magnet and use it a a rope to make your truck do the work pulling out those heavy fire doors.
Nice finds as always 👌 Enjoy your contents. Stay warm and safe☺

When you were throwing that black pipe in your truck i keep waiting for the sound of your back glass busting
Mike...you ought to look into those shoes that advertise here on CZcams ....I am pretty sure they're called "Indestructible." They look pretty nice and really made well.
You almost filled Dottie totally to the top! All that roof metal and the pipes!! Lordy...that was a lot of stuuufff!! Look forward to the run to the scraping place.
Here's Mikey!! lol

All those pipes would be good for woodworking pipe clamps
Here’s Jonny!
*I would invest in those non-slip shoes that are inpenetrable, for all the jumping into unknown dumpsters you do.....maybe even gloves as well. You don't wanna be on the opposite end of a knife, rusty nails, sharp metal, glass, or whatever looms in the bottom of those things. Don't say I didn't warn ya!*
that guy is a cat.. light foot and always on the prowl for scrappity scrap scrap. =0)
Its Johnny!. Sorry its Mikey!👍🤑
14:40 that box looks like a motor controller or PLC. Somebody sure wasted some gas pipe in that open top.
The box was a fire alarm panel, and the pipe was leftover sprinkler system pipe.
@@d.t.4523 OK, I was a maintenance man years ago before retiring, I just said it looked like a PLC box not knowing for sure, I probably should not have commented, but the black iron pipe can be used for gas, air or sometimes for a dry /water fire suppression system. Thanks for correcting me.
@@AdamosDad No problem. A plumber would have kept the pipe, but fire system guys throw it out so it doesn't get used again. I see a lot of that gear and some sprinkler guys once in a while.
@@d.t.4523 👍, If you have seen todays scrap run, I noticed he kept the control cabinet, hope he tries to sell it and lets us know, its probably to primitive for his spaceship. lol
Guten abend. 👍
Good lick with the corrugated roofing metal deck. That crap is sharp and unforgiving. So are those screws that are in some of it/ Keep diggin'' bro.
Always Check the fuse inside the microwave most of the time they start working
