@@ScrapPalletMan if its in the trash the owner gave up all rights to it. BUT I have sat out free working items like TVs with signs on them "Free, Works" and the scrap guy would come cut the cord and bust open for copper coils. I nipped that in the bud watching and catching them, Id tell them before they touched it that its a free WORKING item, and not trash, if they cut the cord or bust it open they take the whole thing since our trash guy didnt pick up debris outside the cans or items such as these and I wasnt cleaning up their mess... bit of a difference between trash and free items.

No worries! If it's on the street as trash, it's free for the taking. Years ago, a couple buddies of mine would go out 'Treasure Trashing' as we called it. Usually, this was the night before the trash would be picked up the next day. We would cruise the neighborhoods looking for treasure. Bob went after electronics like radios, TVs, computers, small kitchen appliances like toasters etc. take them home and re-wire them and sell them. Jimmy liked to find old lawnmowers, weed-whackers, hedge trimmers etc. and he would repair them and sell them also. I just went along for the fun of it. Great times and memories.

We live in PA and we have scrappers. Most folks are appreciative of the scrappers because the items they scrap will be recycled and reused instead of ending up in a landfill. Also a lot of trash companies won’t take some of the things that he’s scrapping. Then people end up throwing it in the woods and things like that. But I’m sure there are people out there that give scrappers a hard time. To them I say, your trash is someone else’s treasure LOL!

Hey boss I enjoyed this clip. Informative as per. It's good to hear a person who's not afraid to pray and display his faith. Electric trucks, as much as I am for it. They're good for local deliveries. Here in Australia, we're codependent on trucks for east-west runs for most goods. It's not uncommon for east west trucks to be doing 8000 kilometres a week. It's counter productive for those trucks to stop every few hours for charging. Sorry for rambling. Out on country roads, those trucks have a quad set up, 53.5 metre maximum length, gross tonnage of around 190 tonnes.

@@dimtucas359 Well, it's the whole side of manufacturing a vehicle to replace one that may already be relatively efficient in energy terms, especially if the power generation is coal/oil/gas fired. I sort of 'inherited' an older, smaller car from a relative when mine needed replacement, but I find it an excellent 'shopping basket', which is its primary use. A couple of years ago it needed some rust repairs that were quite a lot more than the actual worth of the vehicle but looking at a (new, used buys other people's problems and I knew the history of this car) replacement, it just didn't make sense for the very low mileage it does - maybe 2500 to 3000 kms (1500-2000 mls) a year, with 5 or 6 fills a year as it already got 35-40 mpg in town and over 60 on the few times it was on the motorway. With the capital expenditure and especially increased insurance, it would have a negative payback with me spending several thousand a year more over it's service life. Hybrid/electric options were a lot worse, with the added displeasure of them all being some form of automatic, which I LOATHE!

Canadian Goose mom will pull out the down on her breast area to line her nest. When she gets up to eat she will cover the eggs (domesticated geese will do this also) to keep them warm for the time it takes her to get a quick meal. Don't know who said they don't get off the nest and I seen that written too .

Burned the wood, the cast is still on my back porch. It will go to a scrapper next month. I got new stove coming then, and give old stove and all the cast to a scrapper to haul off then.
