Heart-wrenching Sight: All Their Belongings On The Curb

[@tj8244]

Thank you for the prayer. My wife had a stroke in march due to complications from radiation treatment years ago. I am now her 24/7 caregiver and nurse while she recovers and rehabs. So the prayer struck home for me. I pray it brings some comfort to others in life's Struggles. Be well, be safe, and keep on scrappin`

[@ScrapPalletMan]

I'm sad to hear about the stroke caused by radiation treatment. I am so glad you were there for her. You inspire me my friend. Seriously.

[@martindelarosa9696]

Do you want to be my buddy

[@elaineriley4863]

Thank you Paul fir praying for these people that got thrown out

[@ScrapPalletMan]

It still makes me so sad

[@elaineriley4863]

@@ScrapPalletMan I understand and another thing is that there will be people in the neighborhood that will pick through their stuff and steal it. 😢😢😢

I think that’s a water storage tank for a camper because of that lightweight wood panel is fastened to the copper line I do believe that your water tank for camper

[@TNgrandee3]

Good Day Paul. I find myself kind of envying you wearing long sleeves! We are still having a hot time here in the south but I'm not complaining because I do love to eat! I, too, have a hard time with things that make a noise that should not be there!!!

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Noisy repetitive sounds drives me bonkers :-) The main reason why I wear long sleeve is because I get irritated by the Sun. Even three or four minutes of sun on my arm hurts

[@nantzlynn77]

I can tell you, after 11 years next month, losing my home and everything I owned still stings. I appreciate you not descending on their belongings like a vulture because I know you know what it’s like. You integrity, character and faith have been uplifting to me. God Bless You! 🙌🏻

I would love to have the 1976 AMC Pacer. I had one many years ago and would love to have another one.

[@jeffw9888]

Say that vacuum cleaner from the landfill there’s wire inside of it a motor inside of it little steel axle for the wheels inside of it it’s going to the landfill don’t let it go clear the recycle it if it goes with the Metal and they grind it up the plastic will go get recycle the metal will be recycled in that plastic on it up in a landfill but you save the copper wiring oh boy

[@donaldshimkus539]

That first item on the cabinet bottom was a small water heater. People have them installed in bathrooms and kitchens when the regular water heater is too far from the point of use.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

😊👍

[@bobtucker8875]

Thanks Paul, an because I don't know if you have read it or not. An yes I may have been late saying so. I sure enjoyed your 3 hour plus videos,they were amazing. But then I have the time to watch an enjoy them kinda things. Anyway I always enjoy your content 😉. Be blessed brother.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Right on. Thanks for the encouragement of making those compilation videos

[@idellasiebers6462]

Oh no not those cute planters in the landfill

Praise God you are not who you used to be! Jesus SAVES!

[@Kathy-zx5bu]

I lease an apartment in Orlando. In the last four years, our rent has gone up $400.00/month. Unfortunately, income has stayed the same. Yes, people do not pay their rent and get evicted. But, good honest people sometimes CAN’T pay their rent and most landlords are not compassionate enough to help them. Mine would not be. I’m with Paul and believe this is a tragedy! Think about the children. Being kind and thoughtful to others is never the wrong thing to do!

[@ScrapPalletMan]

[@denisemoskala255]

All that stuff being thrown out was heart wrenching.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

😢

[@lynneshaw9209]

THEY COULD HAVE GIVEN IT TO THE GOOD WILL TEAM OR TAKING IT TO THE THRIFY SHOPS IN AMERICA

[@christinesbetterknitting4533]

I agree with the emotion, but the word is _heart-rending_ (as in tearing) and it gets mixed up with stomach-wrenching. Don't mix it up.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Yes heartrending is the traditional idiom. But like with all language, it evolves. Even though I don't agree with it, usage dictates. It's how the language is used. Language doesn't follow rules rules follow language changes

[@mitch281985]

I love hearing the birds singing in the morning

[@jimhorne8855]

Sometimes the junk laying out there is what the tenant left for the landlord to clean out.

[@lia-liz2012]

That's what I was thinking

Looks nice and peaceful nice place to catch some fish 🐟 if it.. allowed 😮

God's Blessings on Your journey along the curbside! Being the assistant pastor of a small country church, I've been involved in the matter of helping those in need! There are so many needy families out there, we try our very best to ease the hurting of those who pass our way! We truly need more compassion and less judgment! God bless You, always keep a tender heart for the hurting!

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Thanks for the kind words pastor

[@crystalmcmahon302]

Hello Paul yes that was sad seeing that family’s belongings out on the curb seen some photos. Nice haul as always Paul. Have a nice evening 😊

[@anthonyquinn3671]

I too see peoples belongings on the Street and always think "There but for the Grace of God" I have had times where I didn't have a penny to my name and things were getting me down, But I worked through them and came out on top. Never give up!

[@ScrapPalletMan]

I agree, never give up

Yes it was a sparrow. That brown thing looks like it is an old Sears dehumidifier. I had mine for at least 25years . It always ran and worked Take care Paul.

[@kindnessrules3885]

As a teacher to homeless kids, it is a tragedy when parents try their best and sometimes their best doesn’t pay the rent. Thank you for respecting with a prayer and like you, I too have lost in darker days❤ The pacer was a hoot, love your videos as they are the sunshine on a gloomy day❤

[@ScrapPalletMan]

I am so glad you are there for the kids. And yes even those of us that have the best intentions, sometimes can't make ends meet. That's why I get so upset when I hear commenters saying, just pay your rent and stuff like that. It ain't that easy and it's rarely foolish neglect

[@clauswerle]

Great

[@williamroberts4049]

My Dad and I built a duplex in1976 to 1977. The people that rented them busted the sheet rock filled the garage with garbage if you could do it it was done. He stopped renting them in the 80s and said never again

Paul, you should fish in that lake! You could ride your fabulous e-bike :)

[@helenlbrewer9977]

I know this video was a couple of weeks ago, but I just wanted to thank you for the prayer for everyone. I needed it today, my home has gotten broken into twice in the last month, it is so devastating that our world is so terrible . So again thank you

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Paul you don’t have someplace that buys old washing machines and dryers. I sell them too two different places that repair them. They pay way more than the scrap yard

Great scraping you did your part and that’s all that matters. I took off this week it’s raining two or three times a day and at night. I’ll be back at it next week. God be with you and Many blessings.😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤

[@marciam6224]

I fell again last night. Lost my balance and fell, landing on my left side. Everything is sore today. Nothing broken, just heaped some more pain on to things that already hurt. Just call me Grace,. So I think it's a good time for a nap. Take care and God Bless you!

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Hi Marcia. I mean Grace :-) I'm glad you still have your sense of humor and that it didn't get broken in your fall. That's one thing I didn't realize, is getting older is dangerous :-(

[@GeorgiaDogScrapper]

That was heartbreaking Paul, they knew that it was going to rain and put it out anyway. Oh by the way that looked like an RV water heater. Take care and I will see you on the next video

[@terrywebb8636]

Hi Mr.Paul, yeah that is heart breaking to see someone's things tossed to the curb, but you had a good scrap haul, it's not the money when you enjoy doing it, and you do, so keep doing what you love.

[@notmeme1859]

Seeing the kids pics on the sidewalk is so sad. The storage unit idea should be a law here too!

Good Afternoon Paul 🙋🏽. IT is really sad when someone is displaced. I hate to see it Too 😞

[@robertsnyder5193]

I was installing garage doors in an old building being repurposed for storage units and the owner had rentals and they had boxed up the belongings of a couple who had Ben arrested and jailed for manufacturing meth. I had to move this stuff and it was heartbreaking seeing the toys kid stuff but it was devastating when I found an open box with the picture of one of their fathers or grandfather and his folded flag and medals and the urn of ashes. I had to take the time and set up a memorial place and found some candles and artificial flowers, I said many prayers mostly for them to come to god and take Jesus to be their new drug. Blessings.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Not sure why but this comment got me choked up thinking about Grandpa and his flag and urn :-(

[@bessiewilson1784]

There are 2 people who do video & they try to restore the stuff to the people if possible. Nice scrap day

[@chrisbivens1545]

Hey if you take it the fridge take the aluminum and copper and the kooling unit the compressor keep those and keep those till you get alot

[@cynthiarafferty7662]

We saw the DuPage County Sheriff and his men come to a house, break down the front door, open all the windows and start throwing everything out the widows. House eviction right before the school bus came to drop off ALL the neighborhood children from school for the day. Real nice for the children who use to live in that house. My husband said, " Why didn't the parents go and pick the children up from school so they wouldn't have to see all their toys and clothing strewn all over the front lawn?" So sad to lose a house and be exvicted by the sheriff's department. Very sad.

My name is Matthew, I live in dekalb and I work up at the sycamore Meijer. I had the luxury to run into scrap and pallet man, we had a wonderful chat while I was working. I wanted to take a picture with this fine gentleman but by the time I finished my tasks at work he had already left. If anyone gets the opportunity to meet this man, just know he is the most sincere gentleman I’ve ever known. Thank you for your kind words, I hope to see you again maybe work with you in the near future. !❤️

It's a parahprase but that "New York City" remark caused a flashback: As part of the "How Great Is Our God" tour, Louie Giglio mentioned, "...Don't worry if you take your golf ball to NYC and set it on the sidewalk in front of the Empire State Building before you walk across the street and compare the size. It's NYC...ABSOLUTELY NOBODY's gonna think yer crazy..."

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Thanks for asking, the girls are doing great. Both Minion and Olivia are back to their old selves :-)

[@janielunday5012]

In my travels doing curbside picking, I have seen many kick outs. Seeing the toys and stuffed animals is what hurts the worst. Adults can cope and knew it was coming; the kids are usually blindsided and will miss their stuff the most. But what is most perplexing is why do people spend their money on junk (as evidenced with everything being thrown away) instead of keeping a roof over their family's head? Housing should be a priority for everyone and not keeping up with the neighbors.

Happy to see somebody finding something. All I found was that I need another tooth pulled thanks to bad genes and long-term effects of MS drugs. (brush 'em floss 'em, use presription toothpaste and...yup.) I'd rather find nice usable extension cords.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Yeah I probably need another tooth pulled myself. It's broken, and is slowly flaking away. Crumbling. But it doesn't hurt today. Some days it does but not very much. When it starts to hurt I'll go get it yanked :-(

Hi Paul, does the scrap yard report all your income to the irs? Just curious, Thanks!

[@ScrapPalletMan]

They do not. But I do. I pay income tax and a 7% sales tax because I as the vendor sell scrap to the scrap yard. Basically double tax
