    Charles man I always enjoy your vidios I have scraped most of my life but at 77 it's getting tough most of mine is automotive mainly for the weight I drive about 90 miles round trip to the scrap yard.i try to have 4000 lbs to make it worth the trip. My least favorite to do is the alinumn radiators to get the best price you must remove the plastic tanks thanks for your time charles.

    Belive it or not, that is the same style scale I use to weigh bins at my compound for shipping it out. It is only 1 pound off (light) but it works and makes it easy to watch the scrap yards on there scales. As far as least fun to process I have to say compressor motors/refrigerant motors. It does pay out when you process the for copper but it's the time to do it. When your hustling it's hard to take time to get them done. I actually have went to getting boxes for the smaller ones now and I'm only processing the larger central air or bigger conditioner units for the copper and will sell the smaller units as refrigerate motors, i also purchased a older freon machine to remove it and I resell the freon to hvac company. #happyscrapping

    used to take apart fan motors and all Motors that I could. But then I found out that basically if you take a motor in just as a motor without taking it apart without digging out the copper you still get paid more than shred. Sometimes not much more but more is better than less. But I do dislike taking apart motors, and microwaves. Two of my least favorite. So Motors and microwaves are definitely two of my least favorite. And I am trained in hazardous recycling so I know exactly how to and what not to recycle in a microwave. And my favorite scrap yards here in the Orlando area are CMC, and TMR. They usually pay more for electric motors than anyone else

I thought it was a bit noisy but it didn’t take much time before I found it soothing. The truck in the background in combo with your vibe is something that I find comforting. I often save these for bedtime!!😂 Sorry!! I always try to re-watch anything I sleep through. But, Wow! I’m getting….OLD!! I try to reply to anyone who comments negatively about the noise. I’m nice about it of course. I just share my two cents. I can’t change anyone’s mind!
