It’s always a test of patients when you get the “new guy” at the yard…..He does not know you, & hardly knows the rules. He’s trying to show his boss he is vigilant on top of it all. Makes for a picky slow drop off. You handled that well Ben!

[@aussiescraphunter7808]

we all gotta learn sometime mate

[@pakistaniraveasylum1396]

That's how things work 👍

Oh yeah I’m familiar with the scene So many times

[@Howdydoody23]

Gday Ben throw an old blanket on van floor, cover with items, then another blanket & so on. U can pick items up wrapped in said blanket & dump items in bin.

[@DrMurdercock]

The amount of good scrap he always has blows my mind.

[@missyd0g2]

Back in October I was scraping a few old desktop computers. 3 neighborhood middle school kids asked if the could help. We took the power supply apart. Had several bad capacitors. The ones looking pregnant. The removed the CPUs and cleaned off that paste. Lastly a bunch of hard drives. November they took apart two old laptops. Best part when one of their families PC died. They did the voltage check with my multimeter. Bad power supply. Replaced with a one of my spares. Fixed the problem. We are in Prescott Arizona USA

[@6Diego1Diego9]

That's the coolest fucking story I've ever heard in my entire life! That's insane. Can I hear it again, do you have time?

[@brandon.clifton416]

With your batteries what if you put them on a pallet inside your van when you're loading them. Then have the scrap yard lift it out instead of you stacking them by hand. Might save a step or two

[@twisted2291]

If he hauled them in on a trailer (or flat bed truck) on a pallet they would lift it off, but not out of a van or bed of a pick up. They don't want to run the risk of possible damage to the van or truck.

[@scrappingadventures290]

I really like your scrapyard videos Ben, always very enjoyable 👍👍😊

[@havaham]

I really have no business watching your scrapping videos but I would truly be sad if they ever stopped. Carry on, Ben!

I enjoy your videos very much and look forward to them all the time hope you get back to Street scrapping soon

[@ProlificInvention]

I used to be a scrapper here in the USA 🇺🇸 I would always cut all wires off all devices and would have cut all that wire on all those power supplies as they used to pay $1 a lb (2 Euro a kg I mean 😆) for insulated wire. You just had to cut off all the connectors. I used to make alot from that, even more than stripping/burning off the insulation which was not worth the time and effort. Of course I would keep the thicker guages of wire to strip/burn off the casing, but the thin stuff just got sold as insulated wire price.

[@TechGorilla1987]

He mentioned not taking the cords off for a reason. He no longer buys power supplies with the wires cut off.

[@ProlificInvention]

How much did you get in that haul? What weights did you have?

[@rossbrumby1957]

I got a big ups from computer store e- waste, 1980w output. The batteries were charged and good so I've been using it as a power pack to run my drill and angle grinder pulling down a shed and fencing. Lasts well and beats listening to a hammering genset for a half day at a time, but it's a gruntfest to carry from my shed to the ute!

[@sharkscrapper]

Some very nice gifts. 18 yr Johnny Walker, I had a friend who loved that. Copper water bottle slows aging and helps with arthritis? Sign me up baby 🤣🤣

[@ErikZarth]

Wow, Manhari goes all out! Keep up the good work, Ben.

[@dalesmith147]

Hey Ben I have a question for you, If all those power units are just ironing aluminum. Then why don't you cut the wiring off and get all that wire for yourself?

[@codiwonkanobi9788]

Computer wire goes in as low grade. Depending on the price it may be worth the time savings to put it in that way. My yard pays more for power supplies with the wire on them with that amount it evens out because of the weight you are getting paid for at only slightly less than low grade wire.

[@danielpersson7483]

@@codiwonkanobi9788 Where i live if i came in with powersupply´s whole i´d get 30 cent per kilo,cables 1.30 per kilo,same price for any cabel at my yard

[@disturbeddazza]

Yard I go to in Brisbane has 2 prices for power supplies. One is with wire attached the other is without. Obviously the price with the wire is higher

[@dr.a006]

I wondered the same.

[@danthescrapper815]

Nice sell off mate and the gifts you received were pretty awesome especially the Johnny Walker and Black Note Pad with the phone charger power pack. In regards to the price list was that for ABN or without or are you unsure? The water bottle was great but the health benefits on the other hand definitely questionable lol.

Awesome gifts from the scrap yard and cant complain with them prices , so even through your selling the power supplies to the yard you still have to leave the cable on ? ...................... Thumbs Up

[@aredditor4272]

Australia's proximity to Asian countries makes it a different situation for Aussies. A better one as far as prices. California is a bitch between low prices and regulations.

Wow. I got a calendar and water bottle. But I only take $10-$12000 a year of scrap. Was a welcome gift.

[@SollersScrappingandDiving]

Great prices! Love the gifts too, very generous and I can't believe it has been a year since we had the last video showing the copper water bottle, how is that possible!? Or maybe it wasn't a Christmas gift a year ago, I can't remember, but anyway the power bank note book is very cool! Oh how I wish I was a woman who could just chuck my whole power supplies in for a weigh in but I just have to process them for max value but that is because I have the time to do it, but if I had a buyer with good prices for complete ones then who knows, maybe I'd save all that processing time too! Been a bit absent for a few weeks after loosing my sister but I'm back now and finding comfort again in watching my favourite channels!

[@stevespenceroz]

Love the blue bin of heatsinks. I love those. Easy way to get your AL extrusion load up. Especially when you get the big ones on solar inverters! I'm just waiting for the day when a scrapyard newbie tries to say they're cast not extruded 🙂

[@nerys71]

honest question. why would you not snip of all the copper wires from the power supplies?? at least here in the US that has to be $50 or so of copper wire just in that first van load of power supplies ??

[@DrMurdercock]

I got .76 Cents USD a Pound for aluminum cans yesterday. I had the average trash bin full, with a couple old pans i found an some random tiny pieces of aluminum. I got almost 20 USD for very little material, I feel like I should state, that this is an all time high for aluminum that I remember in the last 30 years here, and they damn sure aren't giving out nice gifts here lol THat Whiskey is 90 USD, its not cheap

[@scraplifetrashtocash4551]

Cans r $2.50 a lb where I live. $1.70 a lb is the lowest price.

[@nelsonfisher7151]

Even cheap Johnny Walker is not cheap but 18 year old gold lable that's a great gift they most likely gave it to you from all the customers you have brought them and the amount of wire and other metals you bring in is more than most businesses

[@drdankchronic]

Wouldn't it have been beneficial to cut the wires off of those??

[@RoeMantic]

You can need a copper rice machine and metal sorting equipment. Always like this, you can get clean copper and plastic, and then proceed to the next process. This is still reasonable!

Copper is good at the minute £5.50 per kg in UK.

[@mcxravin]

I got £6.50 last week for dry bright wire

[@xcvsdxvsx]

why leave all that wire on there? will they not take it as irony aluminum without the wire? *i'll delete this if the answer is somewhere in the video*

[@scrapbongo]

Excellent job of scrapping out those PCs. I think here we would snip off the #2 insulated copper wire off those power supplies. Good you are scrapping them out faster that way though /cheers ScrapBongo Liked

[@MickJ666]

What did you get for those things you dropped off Ben? Also I bet you are one of their best customers with this amounts you drop off there 👍👍

[@stevespenceroz]

@13:12 you have a bin of "mid grade". They let you keep connectors on? Wow, I'd love that! Plus there's a clear blue ethernet cable on top. Isn't that "data cable/low grade" though?

Those modular HP and Dell server PSUs are worth heaps - crypto miners use them. Especially 1000W and above.

200$ whiskey nice!

[@jonglewongle3438]

It gets noticed. You bring in quality sorted product rather than how-you-goin' shambles and hurry up and pay me. They can tell if you're having a go. Not that I'm in this league but at the container deposit place they give me an extra docket now and then of a few extra bucks, which they might well do for anyone else, but they did note that mine is cleaned and correctly emptied and I procure stuff which no one else bothers with.

[@markavargosr36]

went scrappin today, i cut one cord, im done, feel better already.

[@markking3280]

Is it worthwhile to clip the wires off the power supplies? I sold a little brass planter at a garage sale for a dollar. I weighed about 4 pounds. Should have scrapped it?

[@dr.a006]

Either scrap it for about $2/lb. Or sell it for $8-$10 as a usable item. One of my scrap yards buys brass, but keeps the good items for sale still, knickknacks, etc.

[@goldmagnet]

Awesome prices Ben, I'll keep saving all my non ferrous stuff for when I do a trip to the Gold fields and do a scrap run on my way from East Gippsland. Massive difference in prices.

[@garyhaines6335]

I'll agree with Robert Evras! I always hated going to the yard cause down here in South Carolina The yard guys are always looking over their shoulder because they want to pull the quickie on you and treat you like your stupid.

[@researchandbuild1751]
