awe damnnnnnn that mixer. just another example of why prioritizing the highest loot is so important. the resale of that would've definitely made up for the dropped metal price and small load. speaking of reselling stuff. a video looking into that side of things would be pretty neat. how fast things sell, how hard some stuff is to repair, how long you keep stuff trying to sell it, where you like to sell your stuff, how much more you get from metal stuff vs if you just scrapped it. also, i'd recommend taking tv's with you if their screens aren't broken because it's likely a very simple fix for a very expensive device. usually just a single popped capacitor or whatever on the board. you can easily spot what's wrong with a fried tv by looking for burn marks or melted plastic around the various pieces of the board. if you don't want to repair them yourself though, you could save them up and sell them in bulk to someone who does that kind of thing. make sure the screen doesn't break though because that trashes it even in scrap value and also releases toxic xenon gas just like those lightbulbs. a really great tip i think would be to get a power inverter in your truck with an extension cord so you can plug in various devices to test if they work on the spot. it also makes it easier to see if a screen is broken internally. if things do work, yay free paycheck. if not, cut the cord or think about repairs as you normally do. either way, great investment that would almost instantly pay for itself. speaking of screens, computer monitors, eh, give or take. some can be crazy valuable, but i think pretty much every one you've ever seen in a pile is just a dime a dozen type. if they work you can just quickly drop them at a pawn shop or flea market for a tiny bit of extra cash.

[@PolyProphet]

I’d love a power outlet on my Ute! Hopefully one day I can get one installed. I’ll have to work on a reselling type video. I’m still figuring all this out myself. Thank you mate 😁

Love it !!. Yeah prices have dropped a lot wow what a bummer. Lucky you got some resell and non-ferrous. 👍

[@Hacksaw37]

It's a pity that the price of a repair man to come out to your house is so expensive, people would rather chuck appliance's to the curb now you can't make money recycling them they'll end up in the landfill. That is bloody ridicules'. At lest your trying to make a difference and a little money, good on you mate.

Thank you mate. It’s so backwards 🤦‍♀️

Youre riding in the bike was sort of a break for you look sooooo lovely😁

[@frederikalexanderhurter5321]

Howzit, Alex from Western Cape South Africa. You guys scrap very different than us , we take the whole dryer apart and strip everything out and sort all the metals accordingly, like the blue jack that leaked oil is heavy metal here. I’m busy stripping a old oil bath welder , stripped all the insulation and metal now I have shiny bright copper at 118 Rand to a kg. Good luck and enjoy your adventures!!! I love your show and love your kind and respectful way of doing what you do!!!

[@PolyProphet]

Thanks my friend. I’m still very new to scrapping. Plenty to learn with regards to moving things on quickly and maximising my limited space and time 🙂

Awesome finds Poly and a whole lot of wire cords. Good weather for scrapping mate, keep up the good work.

[@garywhelton9304]

hook the handlebar of the bicycle over the front rack with just the front wheel inside and it will save space and keep it in place .

[@debbiematheny4734]

If you find a box or something full of greeting cards, ALWAYS take them as some could contain forgotten gift cards. I've found 3-4 just looking through boxes of items on the curb. If you don't want to check them at the curb, throw them in the truck and check once you're home. You never know! 😃

[@PolyProphet]

Thank you Debbie. I’ll try to keep this in mind 🙂

[@rachellefrombrizzy9604]

I love it when you find lots of cords because I get to hear so much satisfying cord snipping sounds! I also love it when you sweep that trailer out at the end of a big toss out session! Sooo satisfying!! Lol You must be getting excited about your holiday coming up soon, Poly??? 🤗🤗

great scrapping, not sure about the laws but you can strap the bikes on the outside of your trailer with some S hooks and a strap, safe space and easy to take off. did you forget the Yamaha mixer? anyway thanks!

[@PolyProphet]

Thanks mate. I’m reluctant to strap anything to the outside. Save me worrying about it. I will for the right bike though 😁

[@cameronbrown9080]

[@herbertauntied7983]

GOOD JOB!

[@wayneday3916]

When prices drop sometimes you have to make adjustments to your scrapping. Me I only pickup short steel ally copper brass wires. And I scrap any motors out on the spot

[@PolyProphet]

Thanks for the insight Wayne. I’ll make similar adjustments 😁

[@melindamelendez7096]

Oh boy, you just cut the sewing machine's cord. It was the one with a square metal pedal that you put in the trailer.

If you end up scrapping out that cylinder tank, have your scrapyard hit it with the XRF gun if they have one. Could be a pricey grade of stainless, or maybe even nickel?

I don’t think they have the xrf gun. It looks like I’ll have to cut it up to make it clean 🤔

Hey mate just wondering why you don't take the metal part of the vacuum? In my experience they are usually aluminum and come off pretty easy. Thanks for the great scrapping video.

[@PolyProphet]

Thanks for the advice mate 🙂

[@cathyharville7226]

Just curious! Why do so many people park their vehicles right in front of the pile of recycle and rubbish?

[@PolyProphet]

We aren’t required to keep the curb clear. The garbage men reverse halfway up the driveway blocking the road when they pick up 🙂

[@madelinerose5326]

Why not cut ends of hoses with the metal, or salvage hoses and resell? Why not put the hoses you cut into the machines, they must add very little weight. You are skipping the small broiler units, can see the metal bottoms in the piles. Loved the wooden slatted chairs and the plastic dog house. The baby strollers are adorable. How are you selling the things you find? Just realized that you are not as worried about getting loaded as quickly, are you scrapping now full time, or still working at your regular job but less hours? Knowing that there are many snakes and poisonous toads, do you be extra careful out there!

[@PolyProphet]

Our garden hose ends are rarely brass. Most are plastic fittings. I sell most of what I find on FB and eBay. I’ve gained more experience so stress less now 🙂

[@PolyProphet]

Oh what time was this?

[@zlatanmorrison8182]

Do you get a higher price depending on the weight of the load? ie over 500KG it is a better shred price? or did the steel price just drop massively? was $0.24ish was it not?

[@PolyProphet]

Yards can pay more above a certain weight. Not sure what that is yet. It was a sudden drop. I rang around and the local yards are the same.
