- 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.

Please make a follow-up on those weird orange things! ❤️
I always imagine another scrapper rolling up on a dumpster while Mike is screaming and shouting to us.😂😂
And they'd be muttering "geeez, Mike got here before us again, but maybe we can get ahead of him while he's in that dumpster" lol
Super!!!
"Yes, police please........... there's a man punching a dumpster and then jumping in and falling over talking about snibbits!"
Imaginewalkingpastat night and hearing holler in’ and strange noises! I’m sureMike is responsible for some of the segments on the ‘unexplained…’ programs.

I appreciate scrappers/dumpster divers like you. You recycle and resell some things that would end up being wasted and buried. More ppl need to recycle but at least ppl like you get to make money off it but it’s just such a shame how much useful stuff gets tossed into dumpsters. Humans waste so much
When you find out what those cone shaped things are please let us know. Great haul.
Wow that light fixture dumpster was great! Please up date us how those yellow and Orange things turn out.
Dude you would be like a kid at Christmas in our metal dumpster at work, we change excavator bucket blades and skins, 20-30mm thick and we always get cutoffs too, last time we emptied it was around 2,5 tons
Mike I love watching your videos. I am a sixty year old women that has never been near a dumpster, but I find it so interesting what you find and what I have learnt from you. Thanks for the laughs and entertainment. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Hi 😊 have you gone, for fun, opal hunting, or other gems? Thank you 🌹👸
Me to 63 years old lol love Mike's videos lol
@@diannekhan5199 hi Ms Dianne 🌹
I'm a 67 year old woman who scraps. I don't get much dumpster diving action in my area. But I do get curbside scraps. Let's hear it for supplementing your social security. LoL 😆
@@keri-jodilts9582 hi Ms Keri ❤️ hugs 🌹 😉the looking in dumpsters and curbside stuff for electronics is a kind of hobby for me. Thank you 😘👸
Another great video! You've got me ready to start scrappin again! Hey you know what would be fun?...say it with me people! A MTS VIDEO GAME! Find the items in the dumpster! Bonus points for zip ties!
Ok,we need a follow up on the wooden pineapples please 😁
Mike I'm waiting for the night when you open the dumpster lid and a CLOWN IS SETTING IN THE DUMPSTER LOOKING AT YOU LOL😮😮😂😂😂😊😊
Hi Mike, I'm watching from Liverpool UK. I'm an ex scrapper. Disability stops me now. But I look forward to your videos. Keep on doing what you do. 👍
I stop whatever I'm doing just to watch this I don't care what it is you make my day I wish it was every day that you were on here I feel like I'm there with you there's nothing more that I like to do in the come and visit you and spend a day or two dumpster diving with scavenger Mike I'm going to put that on my bucket list
Mike, you are by far the most entertaining scrapper on CZcams. Keep up the awesome work!
Been looking forward to a great video from you! I get withdrawal symptoms without your videos! Anyone else feel like that? 🤣👍❤️💛💚
And just think how long that would have taken to disintegrate in the landfill! So glad you got all that metal Mike!
Mike is the kind of person who like to make you laugh by pouching the Dumpster thats his tread mark😅😅
First pick was some ballasts, 2nd pick was crap, 3rd and the 4th pick now we're getting scrap. A Dumpster gave some wire and a lawn chair, Mike the Scrapper's digging, looking everywhere. Oh oh ohohoh ohohohoh the right stuff
I am just beginning to realise just how addictive your dumpster diving exploits are. Grateful for the small crumbs and bonus for the big lumps. Your enthusiasm knows no bounds and i need my regular injection of "Mike the Scavenger". When it comes to weed eater line i ran out once during a job and used several pieces of two core wire. Worked perfectly. Clothes can always be laundered, then kept, sold or donated.0n those "Carrots", maybe they unscrew? or you can just hacksaw the end off.
Mike, those white pipes you were cutting with the copper inside were antennas for UHF & SHF
Oh you HAVE to do a follow up to this one!! So many questions
Come on people let get Mike to 500k
👍✌🇵🇷
I agree! There is never a dull moment watching you scavenge! Did you figure out the sliding thing. First dumpster? Maybe a medical overhead light? No idea. But it is scrap worthy.
Mike The Scavenger always gets "The Right Stuff"!!! Have a great weekend, Mike.
Half a mill, here we come brother!! You deserve it sir.
I have been rewatching some of your older videos-from 4 years ago. You have smoothed out your style but your videos are still the most entertaining, fun stuff out there!! Thanks for all of the hours of treasure hunting in the urban jungle.
Google lens brings up some kind of shock absorber for that bomb looking thingie.
Geez I must be the only one who asks you not to edit your videos so short. I used to love watching you hop in and out of the dumpsters load Dottie (you don’t even call her that anymore 😢) you even edit out a lot of the searching. I loved those 45 min videos more or less a few minutes. Lol Can I get any help here from your fans ? Yea or nay I am Really happy that you got so much Great scrap. Take care of yourself, the wife and Furbabies. 💖💖🇨🇦
Over 25 minutes I'm done on any CZcams channel.
I was thinking the same thing about the editing 😞
Looks like all the oldies are enjoying your videos I’m nearly 78 and I see all the cardboard which I’d use in my garden! You’re most entertaining and often you’re a bright light in an otherwise dull day. Thanks keep it up xxx
Only Mike would bring a SAWZ-ALL on a scrapping trip! 😂
Oh yea well CTH does it also. So there you go..
I always wonder why they all don't 😂
my saw zall is in my truck 24/7
I have mine with me all the time.
My 2nd favorite scrapping tool after my hammer😊
Some days I just want to watch you and shake my head at the stuff people throw away. It's amazing
It’s quite amazing, isn’t it?
Awesome sauce indeed! This load is follow-up and scrap run worthy. 🤞🏽Here’s hopin’.
The best way to start a day is with MTS videos.
Have a good weekend Mike and Laura.
Don’t you just love it when it’s already in a box!
That always gets me laughing, shh, your gonna get us busted, but a few dumpsters before he's using a quiet Sawz-all, funny guy Mike. Got to say, I do love it when he has these longer videos, just can't get enough of a fix of Mike.
Told my wife the other day that a piece of metal was extruded Aluminum she was impressed me i have no idea but sounds cool lol.
split them down with the grinder mike they look like bowling pins lol
Never dull is good stuff for lite polishing and shining
Alright! ❤ Mike in the house!
You found such a wide variety of things. Makes it more fun to watch. I like those bomb shape things. Let us know what you end up doing with them
The scrap is working Mister Mike tonight! Thanks man Peace!
A lot of house stuff in them today, still make it Mike with the videos 👍🏼
I was drinking water when you said "that's some designer shirt" it came out my nose😅 good thing it didn't go down my leg😂! You see truly my favorite site! I love people who do diving and scrapping that know what their doing and what things are! I've been a picker for over 25 years and have educated myself on as much as I can but I'm always learning! Come on Mike, is it energy drinks or coffee,you gusto is amazing😮 Keep safe and healthy!
❤ watching mikes video's always something different to see... Hope all is well with you and the furry paws
@My Cancer Vlog sorry to hear that
All I can say to you is thanks for making these videos.. you're an inspiration.. I've binge watched a little over 500 of your videos in the past month.. some of the best content on CZcams in my opinion.. What we got here y'all a little SCRAPPITY, SCRAP, SCRAP?!!! Just snibbits!!!! 😅😅😅
I burst out laughing when he lit up the light saber he found in the dumpster. 😄
The Force is with Mike!
Lol Mike! "That's one of those smoking devices. There's good metal on there!" (Less than a drywall 2x4) Tosses it in the back for later. Hee hee!
You're saving the planet and getting rich. Good job Mike.
PPPLLLLEEEAAASSSSEEEE...we need a follow up on this one....tons of good stuff! Those Hilti tools are a score...Good night out there!
I just ate lunch. Now I have a Mike the Scavenger video for dessert.
Mike, inside the antennae was super cool! Nice work, love the positive hustle! Stay safe
Hi Mike, quite the score, great job and take care.❤️🇨🇦
That grease gun is really a hydraulic pump , mostly used for auto repair , attached to different tools with a hose . Usually only needs o-rings , simple repair . 👍🇨🇦
Every time must be like Christmas morning for Mike.
Gotta LoL at you Mike, always finding the good stuff out there, it's all good, I kinda did that when I worked with a trash company in North Carolina, man, some of the stuff I scavenged was beyond belief, it's so friggin crazy what people will throw away, and my boss was always on my butt about taking stuff out of the trash, until the day I brought in close to 100 hunting magazines, a shot gun shell reloader and something else, I had set all of it on the counter outside of his office window and he saw it, he knocked on the window and waved me in, he told me to bring in everything so I did, needless to say, it all went home with him that night, he even wanted to pay me for it, ah, to do that stuff again 😊
Let's go ppl!!! 1k more subscribers to get Mike The Scavenger to 500k!! Congrats MTS! You earned every one! And well deserved! God bless you and your family
Special time coming up. Half a million subs. Big time. Congratulations from your no, one fan from Oakville Ontario .
Mike we GOTTA have a super juicy follow up video on this haul!!! Super great haul with interesting finds!!!!!
I would love to see a cleanup follow up with a trip to the yard. Interesting stuff you found!
Be great to see a tear down of those big cable ends
Hi Mike those connections you found come apart. Might have like contact glue and then tge outer sleeve.
Can you take a picture of the contacts on that cable ?
Thanks you. I would have gladly paid over $100. For those cellular antennas.
Your electronic person would paid good money for those antennas.
That can of NEVER DULL is the best polishing rub that there is on the markets. It cleans all kinds of metals!👍😎
You have to watch your spine and knees and the double handling of some of the heaviest items could do you in at any time. Please take a minute to assess what you've got and pull the truck close to get those items in at first touch. I was careless too many times and my spine quit when I was 38, I'm 68 now and missed too much. There's a lot of fun, interesting and meaningful experiences in this life so take care Mike and don't miss out because of carelessness. Love your videos and your spirit. Hope you keep at it as long as you want to. Cheers!
Mike, can’t wait to see you hit 500k subscribers! You work your ass off and it’s well deserved. Then on to a million
The part where you said ...shhh your gonna get us busted... bro that had me laughing hard😂😂
Hope the tools pay off for ya! You help more ppl than you'll likely know Mike. Many Blessings
I love that I'm in a time zone that's later than yours because when I'm done doing what you're doing I get to watch you do it 😉😊
Friday afternoon video time! Those"bullets" were a great find! I love finding tools, whether they work or not, it's like being in a candy store 😂
Apartment complex Lights, and those other things look like huge grenades 😂.
You work so hard to save that scrap. Good job Mike. 😎
