As always, Awesome video Paul! Cutting the cords is totally worth it! Thank you for letting us hang out with you, one of my fav part of my day other than leaving work lol every time I drive past a Gman I always say "Morning Ralph, Morning Sam" ;) Be safe and God bless you!

[@GeorgiaDogScrapper]

Hey I just came across your video and I will have to say that I love it. I subscribed to see more videos and I am going to go back to look at older videos. The fact that you learned something new from your scrap yard is cool. Most of them would not tell you that, so they could separate it and get the bigger money at their drop. Also want to say that I am glad to see you give Grace for your reward and gor for giving you a beautiful day to be out doing what you love. Stay safe and happy hunting for that precious scrap. DS

A friend of mine brought over alot of things that had cords in them. It took me 5 days to tear everything apart. 4 coffee cans of copper, a 5 gallon bucket of brass, 1 55 gallon trash can of wires. Time to buy some more plastic tubs. The 5 drivers gave me alot of aluminum, copper and wires. Plus the steel. I'm glad he brought it all over. He said next week he will bring some more.

[@sonnyc3826]

yeah i cut them too on washers, driyers, stoves and such those i strip because theyre all copper in them the smaller ones i bought a wire stripper but i couldnt justify i just didnt find enough wire my wire builds up over a few months then i hand it in and for a 285 dollar wiring stripper it just wasnt enough wire so i sold it now i just hand them in as is and strip only the big ones the wores are still a decent buck they do add up

I say this as a believer who has struggled with his faith over the years and am still a work in progress. Just keep going and growing in the Lord and remember always it's through the struggles we grow. Peace and joy in the Lord.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Yup, we're all a work in progress.

[@roberthendrix9110]

Cords are definitely worth your time. Also the brass from the plugs..it takes 2 seconds to pull them out. Love your channel - I wish you would try to just break down a microwave. It is really simple and you will get more money for a little investment in time.

[@Bogie3855]

I have a bed liner in my truck and found it way too slippery/slidey so I put a rubber mat on top of the liner. Much better and quieter too.

In jersey that is illegal to pick ppl trash. Also illegal to clean a bridge or st the city will leave it dirty purposely and you will be sued. Also in new jersey, if you feed the homeless you can be fined. I own a junk removal service and I meet the scrappers and I meet the bottle pickers. Love you guys for giving me so many ideas for recycling and keeping it up.

We scrap everything down to the wiring and every little piece of aluminum and copper or brass off of it. I use recycling totes and I took two full of insulated wire one full of Christmas lights, one full of stainless steel and one full of aluminum. I got a total of $144 for that haul. also the money machine was out of large bills so it paid me in ones.

And those old TV's,they have a ton of wires,plus a ton of copper on the picture tubes. And it's easy to take off. All those screws you just put in a coffee can or a tide pods container. It all adds up. Vacuum cleaners have a electric motor plus the cord. Everything needs to be torn apart. I take my wires, copper and brass once a year to the scrap yard. In 55 gallon trash cans. One can for each metal.

Not sure how I found your video when I was looking for Ebay Seller Tips... But... You sound like a kind hearted man... the only down side of that would be, you mentioned you didn't want to be "too good looking" by loosing too much weight, however, your heart sabotages that, by making you beautiful, even with the weight

[@fatbaldguy3271]

We have to cut ends off so on a rainy day i pull the brass ends out and pile them up. Gives me something to do when i cant scrap and it adds up.

[@TALL1FU49]

With my truck being a V-6,it dont pay to pick up steel. It dont pay down here in Jacksonville Florida. I pick up my stuff,take it home unload it and go back out till my garage is filled. Then I start to tear everything apart. Throwing the metal into the truck and filling my trash cans up with the good metals. Then going to the scrap yard for the few bucks for plain metal. But I strip everything clean of copper and wires and brass.

Happy new year 🥳 and well done on your Weight loss it’s very hard to lose weight I know from personal experience keep up the good work and stay safe out there 😷 ps tell the young man well done too with his weight loss too 😊 God bless 🙏

[@Scrapping4aDart]

It's funny I've been telling people for years literally that phone wire/cords are worth more. I even have shown my invoices from my yard on video. People still doubt. Now there is proof on your video from the yard itself that it is worth more. It pays to separate "everything." Have a great New Year Paul! Stay safe and healthy. Take Care, Kerry.

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Hey Kerry, great to hear from you. Yep my yard will consider all phone type wire as CAT5 pricing.

[@guruoo]

I believe in Reduce, reuse, recycle, in that order. IMO, best to recycle cords only if the appliance cannot be repaired well enough to put back into reasonably reliable service. Find a nice microwave with a cut cord. Replace the cord with one from a non-working fridge, Tests fully working then clean it up, use it, sell it, or give it to the needy.

[@ajg.6839]

Was just curious, and to each their own....but why not take the entire vacuum? I have taken motors out in addition to the cords. To each their own though! Happy Scrapping!!

[@antman3525]

In Melbourne, cords at my scrap yard go as copper %. Every day vacuum cleaner cords are 42%. A few weeks ago $2--$2.50kg. But no extras, meaning everything except wire is cut off. If I don't then your looking at less than a dollar a kg. Worthwhile to spend that extra few seconds to go to higher price. And the ends you cut off go into everyday pressings load.

[@davegdm954]

so question. Why do you send all of your wire as low grade when you could get a lot more by cutting the plugs off. It doesn't take that long and mid grade wire is worth a noticeable amount more? Im not judging just curious

I live in an apartment complex with 110 units, I've been here 8 years but most people just come and go all the time, a lot of lease breakers and evictions so people are constantly throwing away appliances when they leave, I cut the cords on them and they add up fast but what I really get a lot of is aluminum cans.....tons of them to the tune of about 450 lbs a month ...anyways God bless and take care!

[@brandonroop2795]

Some wire can be easily striped to clean #2 have you ever considered cleaning it ?

[@haroldtunich8809]

Hey Paul when you are striping the solid wire instead of starting on the end to sepperat the wire and the sheath start in the middle you will get it striped in half the time. And on the stuff that just fits through put a little down pressure on the out side end so it won't catch on the lip, or cut the lip out a little. Good luck love your videos. a fan from Michigan.

Yes it’s worth the 2 seconds it takes to a cord. I believe if it only takes a very small amount of labor to separate it’s very worth it. You know this already that a big barrel full of cut cords brings home the Benjamin’s.
