Dumpster Diving "Our Little Secret"

Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

Oh Mike thank you , you make my day every time you are on and give me a good laugh as well from a 71 year old dumpster addict.xxxxx.

[@frannyescue293]

When u tipped the waterheater out of one dumpster and it fell into the other one, that was so funny, i laughed out loud, cause that is so what happens to me and my husband when we try to do anything! I so enjoy your videos mike.

[@javakitty5210]

I'm happy you used, "Gotta' be strong!" on this vid. That's my favorite saying and I've used it in times where I needed extra power! Great video, the water heater drop was epic! Stay healthy and safe!

[@KarinAhum]

Aims for Dotty, misses, are you serious?? That's why I keep coming back. You have entire conversations while diving, I love it.

[@krickett2007]

Mike, ya voice went a lil high during the “Great Koala Attack of 2020!!” Smh I so needed a laugh today!! :)

[@I_Don_t_want_a_handle]

Drop Bears can be dangerous if they get above you ...

[@pollyallen8462]

Greetings Mike. Spaceship parts, yielding too you. Let's get all those treasures. PLEASE be CAREFUL. Be safe,healthy &blessed always

[@felizagarza784]

That was so funny from one dumpster to another.

[@thesacredmom2784]

My Nanny (grandmother)took those spools, tacked a clean shower on to it after trimming it to cover well, to use as a make shift table for her morning coffee and paper.

[@tammyreeves168]

Good scrap run. Pretty funny on this one. With you missing the truck almost every throw and then of course the hot water heater. Stay safe and God Bless. Love your videos

[@TNgrandee3]

Have been watching your "high energy" videos for a while and I always need a nap afterwards. :-)

[@felizagarza1372]

When that water heater landed on another dumpster I started laughing.

[@flowpop615]

[@aprilwenceslao-mw7jq]

[@wmdou1]

You’re knocking it out Mike, keep it up & you will hit another jackpot,they come when you least expect it👍👍👍👍👍

[@ricardojanse3258]

[@cheeneedejesus3537]

We got a nasty typhoon here in the islands but thank the heavens we got a new video from Mike to ease the rainy day! AAAAAAAAAAWWWWWW

[@rebacunningham3773]

Hey Mike, I thought I had seen this one before as I remembered the water heater mishap but I didn't see a comment from me so it must be new to me. Loved it and the big bear in the dumpster it made me jump alittle haha...😊😊😊

[@frankforrest1597]

Good morning Mike. Nutten like having a cup of "Joe" and enjoy an other great video of yours. Wonderful way to start my day. Watch it with the rats, fleas are worse in my opinion than maggots or ants. AWOOOO, ya'll 👊👍✌

[@emmamendoza5050]

definitely, nice to have that cup of "Joe" , this beautiful Nov 7th morning here in the US, while watching Mike, CNN, msnbc, etc, it's a day of celebration...

[@MarshalG1110]

Get them circuit boards bro! 1.29/lb where Im at. 20:00 I use those foldable totes to keep wire in. They work great!

[@donnapadgett6583]

God bless you and be safe 🙏

[@junkin]

20:04 those are amazon collapsible totes they use for their delivery drivers. I they are in good shape u should def grab them next time u see them! I have sold them for 5-10 each and u had about 15 of them there depending on how full the 2nd one was. Really good for moving or using for flea market loads etc.

[@christoffchan955]

Ohh, ill be jealous, hope i can be there too.. Digging in dumpster.. GBU

[@robyngouldin9386]

I thought I seen a Flat Screen against the side wall of the dumpster. Right at 19.08 When that spool got ya 😁🤗

[@mrkipling2201]

That’s a bonus that you’re yard will take that cable as number 2 with the coaxial stuff still attached!! Should be a brass tap on that little sink as well.

[@shawbros]

"you’re yard" your

[@triochenel1]

Morning Mike, greetings from Indonesia

[@juniorkoos5572]

Them spools be good to make rustic end tables and coffee table if your handy with wood and such

[@dumpsterjerry3577]

[@cantaberrytv804]

[@juanitaminch4540]

[@cindyrodriguez7982]

[@michaelschuenemann3505]

That was a large grey Koala looking at You - he liked You ! Water Heater and You found Your Nuts - ha-ha ! Brilliant Scrapping and Dumpster Diving Sessions - including "Ants in Your Pants" - we Love it !!!! Stay Safe and many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!

[@rogerlanningham6742]

I use the bigger spools for a work table

[@michschep7601]

That "egg" bbq cooker was like a 400 dollar unit

[@minipyrokamden2324]

Smoked rat for dinner LOL

[@volkhen0]

That first spool was nice because it was all wood and not some cheap plywood.

[@austinpahr3204]

Hey Mike, you should try collecting aluminum cans to take to the scrap yard.

[@johnluikart5265]

Love your shirt marshall my college here in wv.go mike

[@zanawalley8699]

Mike you need to get another p o box. Someone might send you another stick. Make sure you get the s tight enough.

[@cindyrodriguez7982]

Omg I am still laughing 😂 That was a big Koloa 😂🤣

[@willwall4108]

As always Mike, great video 📸.

[@troyderoinjr6926]

The stick is great but you need some pincher claws from Walgreens the would make getting those wires and stuff from the bottom way easier lol and what's up with finding all this lab equipment crazy

[@agentsmart9360]

That is one super thick spool bro, stained and finished they look awesome. Stain them dark and clear coat them and I am sure they will sell, or get up a collection of those for outside tables, at least that is what I am doing. Mainly the double think yellow pine ones. I may have popped an O ring laughing at the Koala reaction !!!

[@sissydaniel2924]

Id have bought those bags for sure

[@curlywolfone]

Reminds me of an old truck I used to have, it had Glass Packs.

[@heyreddin2.0s10]

Best scrapper by far!! Been subscribed for a minute. You should put a hella strong 300# magnet on the stick!! Stay strong. Do I dig it? Sure do tennis shoe,!

[@ariesmariano4592]

Your video is so awesome

[@stonerdream4203]

[@maryheathcoat5769]

Watching in tn never miss a video.

[@randystone6781]

Hey Mike, ya can't have scrap without the CRAP... 😀🤣

[@mannycamacho2814]

Mike I like the way you dumpster dive cause I've seen the other guys cutting the wires of the appliances which I know people could fix those items and eighter donated to someone who needs it or sell it but when the wire is cut to everything it's worthless cause all they do is take the wires so messed up to my oppion .

[@amytanner369]

So funny!!!!

[@sherovinbayota6905]

Mike take the spool and use it as a coffee table or something

[@MAGGOT_VOMIT]

They put the Covid and Graphene in the vapes and in the cotton swabs of the Covid test kits. 😆😂🤣

[@matthewswaton2578]

Those wood spools make great outdoor tables, have your wife paint or stain a couple and see how they sell.

[@jeremyjmailloux]

Up here in Northern Ontario those big spools will get you $100/each all day long.

[@Valentin-hy2jx]

Hola mike me encantan tus videos

[@SGTMacBC]

You weren't expecting that trash panda.

[@DEER_HUNTER48429]

Them Bag's could be used as Garden beds to grow Stuff in, just fill the bottom with logs and then with dirt

[@Hobbinski]

Kickin it old spool!

[@kevinmonroe6769]

Still waiting to go curbside with old blue

[@elmaritter5989]

Kevin Monroe Diving with DD has old blue

[@perstaffanlundgren]

4:00 : "magnetic" mixer? You put a glass container in the holder and a "rotor" or metal bead in the container. Check for function before scraping away!!! Beer brewers use those for steering jest I think.

[@jetman1963]

Dude the pipes will get scratched you took them out of the box! lol

[@mcconnell4321]

Those things you find that you’re calling transformers, they’re actually “ballasts” for metal halide or high pressure sodium light fixtures. I’m a 28 year electrician and scavenger! Just an FYI brotha!

[@priscillawhite5971]

Oh My Goodness that was a huge trash panda..LOL I rather deal with ants,I don't do maggots they are nasty little things.. as always totally enjoyed tagging a long with you ,it's always fun..i would like to ask everyone to please keep my grandson in your prayers..
