I love what you said about your wife! Everyone needs someone like that in their corner!

I know it's a matter of opinion, but I prefer the dumpsters as opposed to curbsides. The stuff you find on the street is like what I would put out, but the dumpsters contain stuff I would never see in my lifetime. I always look forward to your videos!!!!!!!!

I prefer curbside, bigger variety of stuff

Hi Mike! Your my FAVORITE 😊. The reason the doors are taken off the refrigerator, is for safety sake. So no little ones decided to try and play in the fridge and get stuck and suffocate. I know you know this~ silly. You asked why and the Momma in me had to answer.😘

Kimberley Dragon I'd bet someone took the doors because the side are black enamel so the doors would have been stainless steel.

Actually, if they stay inside too long - like maybe playing hide and seek - by breathing they replace enough oxygen with carbon dioxide which makes them relaxed and sleepy. Then, they fall asleep and suffocate.

I love the way you chatter away thinking out loud , your goofyness and your honesty.....love your videos Mike

Awesome vid, thanks to folks like you, Scrap & Pallet man, Thubprint ,Canadian Scrapper & others, I netted $908 on my last non ferrous run, THANKS GUYS 🤘🤙🖖

And the trophy goes to Mike The Scavenger for most creative way to use a refrigerator. 🙂🙂

LOVE the way you say your wife has a 'scary love' for you. GOTTA LOVE THAT!!!

Thank you for your service. Saving old mother earth one dumpster at a time.

I would like toTHANK YOU for helping clean up the environment by saving items that would end up in a landfill and also making a little money.I am sure that you have had others to follow in your foot steps. Thanks keep up the good work and God bless you.

Mike, I love that your wife Fiercely supports and defends you! That's what a partner does, and it's wonderful that you have that backup! 😊 Oowww! Bravo to you and your wife! 👏👏

So proud of you, you figured out tou could fill up that fridge. Guess you heard me screaming at you. It is so easy for us to sit here and tell what tou need to do. I l ow you get so excited sometimes. Doing a great job. THANKS.

Sweet don't mess with the scavenger fam dude, stay safe stay blessed stay amazing 👏

Doors are taken off so small children can’t climb inside and get trapped, suffocating. I’ve been surprised that you haven’t come across it more often! Wow…what a jackpot you found! Excellent!

Never understood why so many perfectly good tools and components are trashed.

A refrigerator without doors is a treasure chest of super stuff for Mike! :)

Stay on you tube please. You do some great stuff Mike. Keep up the good work.

*Mike,your videos make me smile normally anyway but tonight you made quite a few remarks that made me burst out laughing 🤣🤣*

Your wife sounds awesome!!! very good haul Mike :)

That’s so crazy on that last dumpster: my childhood street name was Moonbeam!! Again, thanks for another fun episode of scavenging!!😻😻😻

I enjoy your videos. You have good neighbors too. I love the curbs videos too. May you continue to be blessed 🙏❣️😇.

You can buy a rebuilding kit for the alternator , way cheaper than a new one. Good haul!

That first dumpster was amazing! That was one fat piece of extruded! You killed in quality tonight! Happy Hunting.

Dear God...watching you walk on the edge of the dumpster, made me nervous!!!! Your nickname should be 'fast finger freddy'! You fly thru those dumpsters! Love the follow up dates that you do. ❤

Thank you, for another great dive :)

Thank you for doing what you can to keep all that beautiful scrap out of the dump. It kills me to see what people throw away.

Spectacular haul sir! It warms my heart to see you snag akro bins. I hope you find them as useful as I do or at least get them to someone who does.

🤣🤣🤣 “my wife is coming for you” As a woman, I can say, don’t mess with our men! Momma bear is on the prowl. I almost feel sorry for whoever it is, but can’t wait to hear she got them!!😂😂

Love how you made use of the ice box.

Amazing!!! Everything you find is amazing. The amount of stuff you find is amazing. Your willingness to tackle even the largest and heaviest of things is amazing. Now, why wouldn't your wife be amazing also!!!

Love the wall decor. You find great things. Love watching

Every guy needs a wife who will go to the mat for him. My husband has one like that!

Hope you gave your wife that beaut jewelry box and yes mike we hear ya we are listening to ya take care from kefalonia greece.

You make my day watching your videos. You're so funny 🤣

You should look into getting a lift gate for your truck Mike. It'll save your back, and let you get more stuff as well. Work smarter not harder and all that. Thanks for the video!

Makes my evening complete👍🏻

Thanks Mike and good luck on the spaceship build. Haha!

Better watch your back mate , my wife is coming for you 😃😃😃😃 , keep safe Mike Hugz from Australia 🇦🇺 🥰💜

You talking to me Mike..... Mike you keep hitting jackpots 💞

Hay Mike love your spirit like see you get excited over scraps and always have fun

Another great video Mike. Your wife is like mine, she takes it to another level, and at the edge of that level is the canyon.

Mike, does the people at the scrap yard get excited when you come in. Just can't wait to see what you found. 😆

Nice to see your wife has your back good on her

Brilliant you always make me smile keep up the good work 👏

Some of those projectors its cheaper to buy a new one than replace the bulb.

Thanks for the fun, Mike.

If the bulb 💡 in the projector works you got a good find but I believe some of them it's cheaper to get a new projector than replace the bulb. Good scraping can't wait for the deep dive.

Mike that projector is great keep in front seat to use at home for movies easy install and nice find

KZread is my favorite Mike.

More wood turners really need to watch your channel Mike, every time you find racks all I see are drying racks that we spend a fotrune on to dry blanks. If i lived in Texas I would be getting on to you quite a lot. Shay

Either curbside or dumpster diving I just enjoy watching your videos Mike and just wondering how the girls are doing, Just can't wait to see what you found and Again thanks for another fun episode of scavenging!! 😂😂

Hi Mike, your electronics guy may be interested in the fan covers. As others have pointed out, removing the doors on refrigerators is a safety thing, its the same here in the UK.

@patrickblock2477

Most counties here have a law on refrigerators and freezers that you have to remove the door(s), the old ones had latches like a big commercial freezer door except the fridge dosen't have a release in it. Plus it doesn't take long to use up the air.

I put part on ceiling part on wall ! GREAt !

Mike, I love your videos. You have so much energy. Cheers from Italy

Yeah scrap! I can't wait for the follow up!

Hey Mikey, be safe out there brother. We're supposed to be getting more Winter weather tonight into Friday in N. Texas.

Here I am again, following MTS into the scrap. Hoping it pays off!

I would love to see more scrap runs. I love seeing how much you make

I am a refrigerator repairman 🤭 I miss the refrigerator, what a beautiful thing they throw out in your country. Do not throw it out here until it rots.From your fans .Hamid from Baluchistan .Iran .I always follow your new videos. Good luck

Quite a few years ago, they passed a law that abandoned/discarded refrigerators had to have the doors removed to prevent kids from playing in them and becoming trapped, because several kids had suffocated that way.

Mike is Da Man

Question Mike When you find stuff neatly right on top like all that aluminum and wire. Do you think folks are leaving it deliberately for you or is it just coincidence?? Always wonder that. It's like meant to be. Definitely enjoy watching.

I used to have people who would leave scrap out for me when I was scrapping full time. I would have 5 or 6 different people who worked for plumbing companies or air conditioning companies and they would save up scrap for me and I would pick it up once a week as well.

Uh, Mikey, need to give the Most High God thanks for that superb find! Again Scrap and Pallet Man Paul is praying for you!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I miss it when you used to ride Sunday, wheelies and jumping the gaps and such. LOL 😆

Awesome find Mike. 😎👍

Love you Mr Scrappty Man.😘

you were so excited with that open top full of precious metals that you missed the battery and walked over it 3 or 4 times...lol

@ 4:57 oh man, those chunks of aluminum... 100 years ago I used to go out, but I was just looking for copper and aluminum... Back then steel was NOT worth it.... Oh man, you DREAMED of chunks of aluminum like that.... omg.... Kinda hit me in the feels a little bit Michael, to see that sweet sweet aluminum.... oh man.... thank you.

Awesome haul

Creepy/scary is the BEST kind of love. Enjoy it. 😂

Nice big score for a change

Awesome video. Great finds

I do believe you could read the phone book and somehow make it sound humorous! Do take care Mike, I want to be watching your vids for a long, long time! ✌🏼❤️

By law you have to take the doors off of any refrigerator or freezer , so kids are not smothered. Great video Mike!

I would love to watch you take things apart, strip the wires and get a load together for the scrapyard. And take it, I don't care how much money you make just like watching it.

I can't believe what you find.

Don't worry about talking to yourself as it is better company than most.

Mike the Scavenger, man how fortunate and blessed you are having an amazing support system with you in what you are doing! It really is unfortunate that there are those who just are not willing to put the real work in to create their own content for these platforms. So thanks for informing your amazing subscribers and channel following about the problem that you have become aware of with someone stealing your channel content and using it on Tik Tok. But as l was saying how fortunate you are, for years now you have been very consistent in being able to give your viewers a new video and at the very least once per week and for the most part entertaining as always, hoping that you are able to get resolved the issue with TikTok this other person or person's should not be able to profit from all your time and effort. Continue being great 👍

Most cities require the removal of Fridge doors when placed out as scrap because small kids have climbed inside and suffocated.

Success comes by being your own unique self..that's the attraction.. People want the real thing not a substitute or copy cat. Though some may profit by doing this it will be short lived. There is a rewarding sense of pride that's felt when you succeed by being original! Hope its all worked out with TikTok and they can find the person imitating you before your wife does. I share her passion for the ones I love and there is no limit on what has to be done to defend/protect them😁

There's a nice aluminum reefer behind the panel in the fridge.

Awesome video Mike 👍🙏
