Scrapping an early 2000s dehumidifier for loads of copper and other metals. How much scrap value?

Hello scrappers and planet lovers. In this video, I show you all the free copper, brass, aluminum, tin, and other metals that are found in an early 2000s dehumidifier. I will show you how to identify and separate the metals to help maximize your profit and divert as much of the material away from the landfill as possible.

My favorite scrapping tear down channel I'm always rewatching TinManScrapper's videos for reference and identification of different types of scrap material! Cheers to the scrapping community/family!

[@TinManScrapper]

I'm so glad to have found you. Copper and silver are about to totally explode. Silver is needed for everything in the states don't seem to have any. Copper is also needed. I know a fella that got his transmission replaced with silver. People know that semi-precious metals are about to be very expensive. A lot of people I've heard say that having the actual real deal in your hand is way better than having it in a stock market, should be crashing about any minute.

[@TinManScrapper]

Yup, I agree. Thanks for the comment. Stay well.

TinManScrapper is one of the best scrap metal channel's on KZbin!

We ordered a new dryer from Best Buy. We thought that it would be installed and that the old dryer would be taken away. However it took them two weeks just to drop it off in the middle of our foyer. Now the old dryer is sitting in the middle of our dining room and we don't know how to get rid of it. You could make a business! And get paid to take old appliances away. Then you can get all of the semi-precious metals and hang on to them! Silver is it about $28 an ounce right now, and some people think it will reach $250 an ounce.

[@TinManScrapper]

I could if I wasn’t a full time teacher. Some people do do this as a type of business for sure. I am amazed that the delivery guys did not take it, since many of the places will actually just bring a load of their broken appliances to the scrapyard.

New subscriber here! I just started my youtube channel not long age! Cheers to the scrapping family♻😎👍

I am hoarding scrap, prices are LOW in the states right now.

[@TinManScrapper]

Yup, so am . People are saying it could reach 6 dollars in future.

[@cyberdan1000]

@@TinManScrapper $6 CDN? That might be close to $4.50 USD if my math is right. Just less than 6 months ago I got $4.35 USD for bare bright. I might be lucky to get $2.50 now. I am hoarding over 250 pounds of CU right now.

[@TinManScrapper]

@@cyberdan1000 yup, me too. Not bringing it in until prices go back up to where they were or higher.

mr. fairth its leo

[@peterbosser2049]

all copper from a/c and dehumidifier are number 2 because its got oil in the pips

[@TinManScrapper]

Yes, but if you clean the tubes you can get away with throwing it in #1 if not oily. Soap and water solution works great.

[@TinManScrapper]

Wet my shirt and pants with sweat; small sacrifice to make to help the environment and fellow scrappers!!! Lol!

[@cyberdan1000]

Are you sure sweat? You were working with a compressor. That oil gets everywhere. I thought you leaned up against or move the compressor when it still had oil in it.

[@BushDogScrapper]

Gotta embrace the blood sweat and tears when it comes to scrapping haha Cheers TinManScrapper!

[@scrappingwithbillyj2523]

I just picked up a dehumidifier earlier this week, I plugged it in, it said bucket empty..I’m going to give it h2o tomorrow. I brought in a small load of tin shred today in Windsor Ontario..it’s up from $185.00/ ton to $195.00/ton..is it also rising in London too?

[@BushDogScrapper]

New subscriber I'm just getting my channel started and really enjoying the scrap metal family Cheers!

[@stevensonblake123]

to make your life easier, you dont have to wash your copper with water or vingaer, its still classfied as number 1

[@stevensonblake123]

and please dont call steel tin, tin is solder known as pweter, wouold like to know how to get more tips to recover acutal tin, i use a heat gun on circit boards and pipe with tin on them !!! i learned alot from you tho man

[@TinManScrapper]

Not hear, we have 2 categories for magnetic items: steel or tin/shred.

[@donvoll2580]

Good day Our garbage will take them, so they probably bust in truck Thaks

[@christopherduncanjr988]

That’s a lie we throw anything in there as long as it ain’t a gas tank sitting on alone

[@TinManScrapper]

I guess it all depends on where you live. One of my neighbours just got his pool water tank rejected. Not sure why, since it is a large plastic tank full of sand. perhaps depends on driver of the truck sometimes.
