  • 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.

    Just out of curiosity I did a quick Google search to find out how much marble base lamps cost & HOLY BUCKS. I guess it depends too on who made them but they are definitely valuable, great grab Mike.

    Sector 9 is a very famous and appreciated skateboard brand also by Tucker Upper, my favorite channel after yours. Great adventure, with new parts of your spaceship, crazy cats and fresh beers. Thanks Mike for your videos, even if I live in an island without infections and hospitalizations, we are gladly at home like house arrest, and waiting for this damned COVID-19 to pass, and CZcams helps a lot to spend the days with some good books too. Ciao from Venezia.

    Sureflow pumps are awesome. We live off grid, and use them for our water supply.
    Flojet is the popular brand, but sureflow is a better pump when it comes to power, and noise.
    Great find.

    Hi Mike, I’m in Spokane, WA and subscribed to your channel a few months ago. I like it and enjoy your goofiness. You make me laugh.
    You have found, on a couple of occasions, red metal boxes. I believe they have keys? I would really love to have one if you still have any. If you don’t could I reserve one or two if you find more. I don’t know what you are charging so I would like to know the price and of course I will pay shipping. Let me know if you can. Thanks so much Mike. I appreciate your help.
