Dumpster Diving "Independent Hose"

[@TNgrandee3]

Probably the one person in Texas who doesn't need to exercise says his New Years resolution is to get more exercise 😃😮. Bless you heart, Mike. Happy New Year💥!!!!

[@RonHicks]

Making some dumpster juice with the hot water heater!

[@born2soon]

I don't for one minute believe you need to exercise more. You're faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall dumpsters in a single bound, IT'S SUPER MIKE!

[@ruddyryan]

Super weird seeing Mike with pants 😂

[@upnorth6722]

I will be glad to trade the last three feet of snow this week for your ice ! Nice haul .

Howdy Mike

Happy New Year. I went out for a walk the day after Christmas and ended up doing my first UK dumpster dive. Although it was really a skip outside a local medical centre. I got 9 litres of 80% ethanol sanitizer, 2 wooden padded conference chairs to fix, and a new looking office chair. Plus more desk fan parts to add to my pile.

[@MikeTheScavenger]

NICE!

[@corringhamdepot4434]

@@MikeTheScavenger Just found out that they threw out a "new" $150 office chair because they had screwed on the base backwards. Despite it being clearly marked. So it would throw you of forwards instead of letting you lean backwards. All fixed now. 👍😀

Good to see you back Mike, that's a come along, what you called a ratchet do dah.

[@lucetteketley9114]

I wish I had your energy, Mike. Lol

[@Champagne1]

I sure hope that Santa was good to you your wife and fur babies. That iron door would clean up really nice and you could use it in your garden. It’s so Great to see you today. But Mike, I know you’ve heard the saying “if you look after your pennies your dollars look after themselves” I know, because you told us some time ago. So to that end, I saw a WHOLE LOT of that skinny wire in the big open top. I’m really wondering why you wouldn’t take it. I’m sure it would add up to quite a few pounds. As for you exercising more, Mike I’ve NEVER seen a man in Better shape then you !! Love ya ♥️♥️♥️♥️🇨🇦

[@judithjanes5738]

Also, same place you found that expansion joint you were so pleased with, if you're still doing yard sales, that roundy-top metal case would well in a hot minute to one of those crazy Halloween junkies who decorate their yard - just spray-paint it, and voila! a perfect gravestone!

Translation to Spaniard' s text: Mike with the turkey, and rest, has brought you a lot of energy and luck. Hello from Spain. Ok from me: Hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your wife. I wish you and your wife a wonderful coming New Year. A blessed one! That you can fill Dottie to the max every time you're out scavenging. Thank you for keeping us entertained and glued to your scavenging videos.

[@dianna3157]

Great score Mike! Plus you saved that business some money by pulling several hundred pounds out of the open top. For those that don’t know (over seas fans maybe), the dumpsters that have the rubber lids are common trash cans and businesses pay a set price monthly for garbage pick up, the open top “roll offs” the business pays by the pound. Mike is saving the environment and helping fellow business owners, all while putting a little coin in his pocket. 😊 Happy New Year 🎉 I 💜 MTS! 🐼💪🏼🦝🏠🏴‍☠️

Only when it goes over what ever ton is included in the price.

[@photoadventures]

The past year has been the most crap one ever for me. From moving 3 times to my car being in a garage currently for 8 months awaiting parts. Suffering from depression and anxiety I am looking forward to the next one. Starting a rock climbing facility and sharing the sport of climbing with as many people as possible. It has taken three years to find a building and will take another 6 -8 months for the build-out. It all comes down to loving what you do and doing what you love! -Happy New Year!

[@rjlaxvespa1742]

It happens, there's lots of bad mojo going on hopefully it will pass... everybody has these evil incidents happening in their lives, if I let loose you really be depressed...

Mike how was your Christmas at your new home ? I was worried the storm that dumped snow about 5 feet of snow drifts was heading your way. I wish you and Laura have a healthy and and safe Happy New Year 2023 a m d hope the kiddies are staying warm...

[@phloxxic1387]

Those diaphragm pumps sell for good money even before being rebuilt (especially the IR ones). I would definitely consider going back for those. You could easily get $50 a pop and those looked pretty clean.

Good afternoon Mike. Great to see you're out there braving the cold on the day after Christmas. You've managed to scavenge so many treasures among those cardboard boxes and trash bags in that dumpster. What are you going to do with it all? Be careful, however, some of those treasures may be edible items - especially if you're planning to donate them to charity. 👍👍
