Dumpster Diving "We Must Be At The Bistro"

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!

It's nice to see that no one has moved in on your scrap run Mike.......I wish it stays this way.......Best and funniest scavenger/scrapper on the planet maybe.......Well more than maybe, you are No:1

[@joestiff3689]

There is nobody better than Mike he is the king of scavenging and scraping and that’s a fact

[@user-ow4vb5wr6g]

Я жилаю тебе здаровя ты номер один металомшиг

[@charlestusin274]

Keep up the great content. Definitely one of my favorite channels!!

[@ronbrandich4196]

You know Mike~~~You WORK really hard and you EARN every cent you get from the scrap you find. When you were standing on top of that Open Top with all the Pipe in it and were standing on the edge PULLING it out you made my heart FLUTTER because of how high you were and standing on the edge!! DANG be careful Mike!

[@marksmithson1414]

Awesome you sold those cabinets. Loaded the truck up again. Oooooww

[@dixiepittenger3960]

Just home from my 6 wks check-up from total right knee replacement and I see Mr. Mike jumping out of a dumpster. Gotta love MikeTheScavenger

[@humdrumdontsuccumb]

I know what you mean. Just had my 12-week check after my right hip replacement...dem bones dem bones dem dry bones. I don't cringe as much as I did a few weeks ago🤣🤣

[@roseamber7342]

I love to watch Mike but he probably won’t listen to me. I used to walk 5 miles a day, at 81 I’m paying for it. I need knee & hip replacement. With him jumping in and out of the dumpsters, someday he’ll be paying for it. MIKE, BE EASY ON YOUR KNEES.

[@tonya4417]

I was 33 when I had my first hip replaced. Thirteen and a half years later, it kept coming out of the socket. In August of last year, my Orthopedic dr. replaced the ball that goes into the socket. Well it kept slipping out of the socket, so last month I got a whole new hip.

[@paulafratus2210]

Just takes landing wrong one time, ask any hooper, ACL down. Actually I'm thinking one of those videos the sound effect is gonna be an ankle breaking. owuuuheeer. Or however a howl of pain is spelled. Stay safe dude.

[@JamesMcGill-kr2qk]

Scrappy master Mike scored again saving the scraps from the landfill and putting some money in his pocket. God bless and keep safe jumping in the dumpsters .

[@loislynncameron9608]

I just love coming home after a 14 hour shift and finding out that there's a new Mike the Scavenger video!

[@larryjohns8823]

You make $$$ off scrap and the business saves $$$ not needing to pay for trash removal as often- win/win for all😊

That is an exceptional Hall tonight. Wow also thank you for giving me the idea of birdhouses. I, on the other hand. I’m at the perfect age for that and will put the idea to good use. I make them but not out of conventional wood. I use old Logs branches. Thank you.

[@matthewdove3520]

No a bad days work there, nice few bits 😊

[@SollersSrappingandDiving]

As they look new they should be fine but a point to note for microscrappers, especially new ones is that ionisation smoke detectors release radioactive nasties when dismantled so don't be tempted to micro scrap them!👍 Wow, that is the first time I've ever seen patio heaters stacked into a dumpster like that! Awesome PC haul, amazing!!

[@judithl-akathesausageinspe9388]

[@ironangel667]

I hope you bought a lottery ticket on the way home.

[@twiztidfreakshow4186]

Funny you say that bought a scratch off on my way to work the other night won 30bucks and found a whole truck load of scrap on my way home from work.

[@meruliouslacrimens5154]

I am now retired, but knew people when i was a young man who boasted they earned more than me doing an honest job on the railways but they were on the dole and doing drugs deals. I also didn't spend my life looking over my shoulder in fear of who may be after me. Lets face it, hard work, usually pays and we (the onlookers) are more than happy when you make a big score. But then you work ruddy hard for it. We just hold our breath when you jump into some of those dumpsters. You deserve all the $$$ you get for your efforts.(🇬🇧)

[@genehasenbuhler2594]

Number two on the thumb!😄 hit it for Mike peeps!

[@melsjunk2645]

Mike could definitely use a good protective roof rack, maybe a custom one just for scrapping.

[@dianejohnson9904]

Another awesome video. You are part of my fitness program. I figure I must burn a few calories watching you jump in and out of those dumpsters, sorting through that stuff! 😂

[@chasonlapointe]

Couple golden dumpster this time!

[@robertburns3014]

Nice haul once again, Mr. Mike! You are one hard-working guy. I always enjoy seeing what treasures you find in the detritus of civilization! Keep up the great work. 👍

[@phillipbainbridge9107]

You can never beat selling freebies before you even get them home!

[@barbaratamm-ross3716]

Before retirement I worked for a major retailer and it made me sick to watch all the recycling stuff going into the huge trash bins. It's great to watch you saving the landfills from being filled with metal!!!

[@peachstateexplorer8004]

Wow what a load!!!! Awesomeness scrappyness!!!!!😁😁😁😎😎👊👊👊

[@janiceconrad5917]

Great haul today, Mike. Keep it green, 💚 saving our planet!

[@amethystwinter8231]

Wow ! ❤ Stay safe.

[@jimz2901]

Think about going back to how you used to take the stuff apart in your garage then go to the scrap yard and show how much you get for all the different metals. Love the channel.

[@nampet26]

Jackpot on the computers!

[@lorireed8291]

I know you’ve read this a 1,000 times, but there are very few people who are as hard working as you. You deserve every dollar you make, and you deserve recognition for what you do to help save the planet by keeping all of this out of the landfill. Thanks! It was a Scrappity-Do-Dah Day.
