Dumpster Diving "Heavy & Hot!"
Ойын-сауық
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.

What music? Is this a case of you are putting out music that I cannot hear. No, I've got the music turned off at this time. Hearing it without putting it on, would be cool. Hey, I'm suddenly hearing a brassy orchestration, ah just a smigen. No really there is an orchestra; music, I don't know from what, but it is a fuge. You work a fuge, a rattelsome effort; assessing en route. After your fuge you sit back , exhale thoroughly and declare, "it's all right"? Tell us about it, slow tho, as it comes.

Queue the music! BTW, be sure to do your stretching before the evening begins.
409,000 subscribers speaks volumes. Your constant flow of hysterical commentaries keeps people entertained and coming back for more. I have arthritis and COPD and I rarely even go outside anymore. Watching providers of content such as yourself brings the outside world into our homes. You never know what you will find and you talk like we are standing right next to you as you pick away always deliriously happy in anything you find. Well done. You'll hit over 500k this year easily.
"Magnet fishing in the dumpster juice" - can't say it any better!
Mike, love the video. You got me started and I'm grateful for that. Give the pups a hug from mocha and I
Mike YOU are the magnet, you pull every good and worthy scraps out just by looking.😉👍
LoL 😆 love the Aquachigger shout-out! Didn't know that is where you got your idea for a channel but then I know especially early on you used to more river diving and searching for treasures that way! Old Aquachigger is a good dude too and I watch his stuff as well. Another great video Mike! Peace!
I see the state of the local economy in your videos. Lots of new/remodeling construction is a pretty good indicator for an optimistic outlook. Having the additional force of magnetism to work against makes for a tough harvest.
Hello Mike, everything is on top as always. Greetings from Ukraine
Way to go Mikey! You Da Man! Great run and kewl scrap run. Thanks for letting us tag along, I only wish there were places like that near to where I live. Anyway, keep up the good work and we will look forward to seeing you next time.....
You find the most interesting things in the dumpster’s it’s unreal. Love your videos Mike. Can’t wait to see another episode of Mike the Scavenger.
Mike I usually keep a small pipe cutter in the truck with me I cut the long pieces to fit so I can pack the truck to the max.
Perfect way to start the day. Coffee and a video. Hope you have a great day. Thanks for starting mine off so good. Love your videos.
Mike you always find the most interesting things, space ship parts 😁😁
I love it when you find the 60/63 painted it's my favorite 😉
Love how you pick up all good things and give them a home. Thanks for helping decrease the landfill. You’re awesome! You must have an amazing wife because she puts up with bringing all these things home.
15:49 I love how you give life to certain items in the dumpster that you assault. Lololol 😂
All those magnets would be great for someone starting out magnet fishing. Great Job Mike!!!

No they wouldnt. They are barely strong enough to pick up themselves. Would be a waste to try fishing with them. Not to mention the polarity is on the outer ring and not focused on the bottom.
Today's episode : Mike finds a lot of stuff and such. Aluminum too.
26:45 I love watching AquaChigger! I've learned so much from his videos. Been subbed for over 5yrs. Great channel!
just give me a beep beep beep when you are done picking metals 😂🤣😂🤣😝
24:22 "This kinda sucks" 🤣🤣🤣
Flight of the Valkyries for epic dumpster diving. Nice touch.
Excellent video Mike, coming in hot & heavy.
My goodness, there is always a lot of light in the container. what a nice vidoe
Hi MTS 👋🏻! That was “SUCH” a good haul!
Good morning from hot Az. So far so good. Looks like it might be a scrapping day. Be safe in those open tops. Can you do anything with those floor panels or are they too much concrete? Holy crap thats a lot of magnets 🧲. Lol Your river scavenging videos are awesome. Would love to see some more.
I love your theme song at end of videos, should make it a ring tone, lol, keep up the scrapping
Love your positively. I'm an old man now but use to do what you're doing now. You hustle you can make a petty good side money with this and if possible... save every dollar you can for your later years. Like my dad would say save as much as you can whenever you can. If you're fortunate... you'll live a long life you don't want to out live your money. Keep it up ole man. You look like you're having a great time an keep that positive attitude. You may not know this but you're up beat positive attitude affects others in the same way, puts a smile on the faces of those around you and brightens up there day. God bless you and yours brother. Thanks for the good times. Joe.
How about taking Sunday out for a scrap run for old time sake 😁
Those gray tiles are Tate raised floor tiles. Used in control rooms
Love the video. Those potatoe eyes are looking back at ya. lol
Ger R done Mike!!!!!
Nice first dumpster dude. Can't wait to see what else you find.
love your magnet sweep.
Don't loose your bearings in that dumpster. hahaha
Neat wrap up scene. I’m hoping to get back in the shred hauling somewhere, someday
And I play the ads, all for you, Mike
It’s another great informative scavenging adventure! Thank you! Hug and love to you and family! Wonderful! Fun! You are like a great intriguing book. Each video is a chapter filled with adventure, keep going, stay healthy!
Aquachigger reference! Awesome! Maybe a collaboration with Beau the next time he is out west. I would definitely buy some of those magnet/bearing things if you put them up for sale.
These Dumpsters just keep on Giving ! Wow another All Sorts of an Evening - great Finds ! Many Cheers from us in Australia!!!!
I thought that first dumpster was going to be one-stop shopping! 🤣. Great haul. Those magnet thingys are cool. Can you do anything with them besides scrap them?
Always fun to find good finds in the Dumpster. Way to go Mikee!!!
I love the way you punched the dumpster right off the bat....AND SUCH 💙🤣
You are the best scrapers to your country I Love your channel awesome
Soundbar if it works, pays for the entire trip. Nice finds!!

Hay Mike have you ever showed you taking apart a oxygen machine or what you do with them. You get so many and I would love to see what you do with them.
Mike, thanks for taking care of the environment and making sure all of that gets recycled and doesn't just get thrown out.
Hi Mike enjoy your hard work Attitude stay strong And safe out there bro Regards to your family
Well mister Mike this was a very magnetic video thankyou for sharing
So funny, magnet fishing in the dumpster juice, priceless!!! Greetings from the Netherlands
Open tops are my favourite, I'm glad to see so many in 1 episode 😊
Always educational and definitely entertaining! Great job!
Great video Mike. This one showcased your best qualities.
Another great Video. Thanks Mike
What a great night!!! Stay safe out there!
The aluminum conduit is called emt for electro metallic tubing. The other steel conduit is called ridgid conduit. They didn't have aluminum bx cable when I went to school for it.
I just wanted to say thank you cause I have massive panic attacks and for some reason your videos help me relax and I appreciate what you do take care my friend
Nothin' to heavy, Mike will grab it!
Those upside down machines are great. Couple minutes a day will save your back. Been doing mine for6yrs now. And they wanted to cut me. No thank you. Great haul today.
Great job Mike just love watching your scrapping adventures😀😂😂😂👍👍❤️❤️
You bring a hold new meaning to the phrase "one man's garbage and such is another man's treasure and such..
Nice score bro and a great video
“Aquachigger, look at me now!”….. small world, I love his channel too!!
What a great score 👏 good job..
Mike did you look in the super micro boxes that were in the open top? They sell computer components cern rack type stuff. The sound bar usually have small remote. The instructions might of been something to keep.
Great finds this outing, Mike! Thanks for sharing!! Peace to All.... 💜💙💜
Good haul….👍
Another fabulous video, even I am starting to learn about metals. Thanks much
It amazes me how much new stuff you find.
That was the most musical scrap! I have no idea what was twanging back there, but it was cool.
Millionaire Mike at it again yall
Hey Mike, watching from South Australia, 1.40 am. Lee up the great work mate 👌👍🍻🍻
Great vid MTS! Be well!
That was a great find all the goodies appreciate your videos Mike
Square D. Wow, I used to make touch up paint and spray bombs for them when I was in the paint business a lifetime ago, when I lived in Edmonton Alberta, Canada. That brings back memories!
You are awesome, you keep all of this stuff from ending up in a landfill or dump!
How your new furbaby doing. You and wife have a Happy 4 th July.
In the big blue dumpster you had brand new boxes of stuff that you never even opened to see what they were !!!
Who else said "Jenny" to themselves in their best Forest Gump voice while he was going through the first dumpster? Lol
Good job... Hope the fur babies r good. Please show them soon. Love watching u everyday. Keep up the good work xleaning up this nasty planet we live on... Happy Diving ...
I say! Top shelf dumpstahs, my good man 👌
I really like watching you get good stuff out if bins and such. I realize that you must be extremely strong to do what you do each time you go out. I have watched you lift things that should have strained every thing inside you. Hopefully you get good rest and massages from time to time.
Haha, love the sound effects! :D
Dumpsters were good to you again Mike
It's raining scraps for MTS tonight. Thanks for the ride along.
Hey it’s Christmas Time when Mikey’s diving in the dumpsters WARNING watch your head.🤯🤣👍🏼
Nice Haul Mike
I love the sound effects, I laugh at them every time! As always , it was a pleasure! How about some river videos I find those relaxing!!

Wow, "Ride of the Valkyries", clearly we moving "up market" :) Only one problem with all them Magnets, going to be impossible to extract them from the back of Dottie and will be pulling all the other trucks toward you as you head up the highway :)
Please say "Yes Sir!" when you feel excited as KZread tells you about a new MTS-Video... do it like me... YES SIR!
You are the best. Go for it.
