Mike, I want to thank you for the heads up on your music, Jelly Roll, what a great tip. I am a 75 yr. old woman and I fell in love with his music. As you said, it is REAL AND DOWN TO EARTH and it comes from where he has been in his life, well I feel like it comes from there. He has brought a lot of things in my past, that I would rather forget, to the forefront and made me so very thankful for the changes that I made in my life. Sometimes you can get in a very deep and dark place and don't ever know if you will ever pull yourself out of it. I can't change things from the past but I can sure do something about now and the future. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Love your videos, work ethics, personality and down to earth attitude. Thanks again and stay safe out there.

Man you work them dumpsters like a pro, !always bringing a smile to my face. You do what you do like no one's watching

Addicted to watching your channel.

Former scrapper here. I really enjoy your videos because you are looking for all the scrap. I tried watching a couple of the others but all they seem to be looking for was the high dollar stuff like wire, cables and cords. Thanks for keeping it real and keep doing what you do. I'll keep watching

oh that umbrella...so satisfying

the umbrella music was a nice touch.

Hi mike. Great going. Please take care and stay safe. Have a great day. 👍👍

Ole Mike just loves pullin his wire!

Had fun .only ate one bag of popcorn good job

At the beginning, those table tops would make nice rifle shooting tables.

Hi there Mike, With the Industrial A/C Panels, If you cut them into smaller squares (1'x1'), you shouldn't have any problems. Worst case Scenario you could always melt the:- AL-U-MIN-I (makes it sound like an 'E') - UM, LOL and then you have the correct Pronunciation (at least here in Australia), OR you could always try a different yard, if they take it the next time you tell your regular yard, and they might be a bit more Accommodating. Good Luck Gordon - Australia

Wow, the stuff people throw away. Amazing, but it all adds up and that makes money. Scored real good tonight.

I think We all know what Mike sounds like when He gets excited 😂😂😂😂😂

i love this guy vibe.. you have a good personality Mike.. much thanks for all videos you share to us..

Love how you handled the nosey guy at the curbside

Those big ac units you can sell them intact to people that have solar heaters. There was a large site cooling coils that were bad and cut up with a Sawzall. They were turned into 16x16" manageable size. You might want to look into a powered cutting shear. Even if you make one using what you find from scrap.

Always pull the piece the jewelry sit on in a box because sometimes it’s just behind it, not lost

The shit you find is a hoarders dream!

“Give yourself to me” 😂🤣😂 everyone is wondering why I sit here laughing so hard! The red umbrella dance is great. I’m getting $8.00 each for those window slat things that I rescued from the garbage. The tabs break and then they are hard to replace, so there is a market for them.

They're called verticals, the vanes or slats are the long PVC plastic pieces. Slide a credit card or similar card into the clip to free the vanes. Also if you pull the end cap off the aluminum headrail the aluminum rod will slide out with the clips. All parts are reusable for repairs.

3:42 is that a motor that Mike missed ? Must have had shiny flat stuff tunnel vision. Love ya vids Mike. Keep scrappity scrappin y'all

"Martha?.....what's all that racket out there? Is that Mike the Scavenger out there at 3am, get my gun" :D I'm kidding.......kidding.........

The racks go on that pole you had. It is a display rack for greeting cards or pamphlets,

Your videos always make me want to do what you do every day and I hope you enjoy doing what you do

Mike I would be doing what you do but broke a rib. No climbing or pulling anything and takes atleast a couple of weeks to be able to do anything to do with a dumpster. The curbside collecting means moving very slowly. I did find some antique aluminum trays from Alcoa Metals dating back to the early 1960's. We did find old glass plates and dishes.

Love the many voices of Mike. lol

Always fun to watch you have FUN!

Epic video!! As usual!!! Had fun watching!!! Thanks

Really enjoyed your video 😅. Lots of scrap. God bless you and be safe 🙏

Been watching all your videos, you are better now than 2 years ago, so much fun to watch!!!

You know what they say... Witch's be cra cra!

I love watching you do this and the way you clean up 👍

Hi Mike, just a suggestion here, maybe you could sand down the outside of you rails or wood walls, stain it or not but then shellac it. It would make it look nicer so it won't catch the eye of cops. My husband always said they look for vehicles that don't look as good. Not that Dottie doesn't look good, she does. I just know you said you didn't want to put walls up for that very reason. So I thought since they are starting to look a little worn, maybe you could do that to spruce them up a bit. Ok that's my two cents for whatever it's worth. LOL 😆

Thanks for taking us along for the scrap...

great night for scrappin mike

Wow you found the gun in the dumpster.woooo very nice video idol mike

Nice dumpster…made you work for it though! Nice save on those plastic boxes Mike.

I find myself saying scrapady scrap scrap. your a real hoot, addicting to watch, as a kid I spent much time at the dump in the 70's where everything was dumped into one pile and berried. I took home a lot of good stuff.

Like the music and the umbrella dance 💃 😂

Good afternoon to you too mike good to see you again and watch your great videos time to raid those dumpsters find some good stuff be careful out there stay safe respect 👍😎

Hey Mike, I can tell that you have listened to your fair share of Beavis and Butthead. I’m 73 years old and I watch it all the time.

That black fiber box is to hold drum/percussion equipment. There should be a lid with it though.

I find nice dumpster occasionally here in the UK, but get nothing like the goodies you get, always such a joy to watch! If I got half you goodies you do I'd be one happy woman!!!

Good scavenging. You the boss
