Street Scrapping - Keeping Good Items from the Landfill

[@donnasanford4402]

Paul, I am 63. Oh and I am a 5'4" female. And guess what??? I saw your videos about 5 weeks ago. The next day I started Scrapping. One full truck after another. I love it. I can get dryers on by myself. I can ALMOST get washers but need help. I am thinking about getting a hitch lift for my ford ranger. Microwaves ARE NO problem. The really heavy treadmills are very difficult though. I have learned a lot from your videos. You are my inspiration Have truck will scrap!

[@ScrapPalletMan]

I love reading this. Seriously, as I'm laying down drifting off to sleep I thought I would check the comments one last time. I am so glad I did. You encourage me! I am proud of you

[@ChurchLady777]

Paul, I did it! My hubby and I did! In our little VW Bug we collected 220 pounds of metal and went to the scrap metal place and weighed in and out and it was so much fun! We liked just sitting and watching the big machine chomp down and cut metal in two. And of course the big magnet! You should have seen our car full and the back tied down! I made $7.15 and am so proud of myself! I am almost 72 years old. 😆

[@shariprice4343]

I would love to have a pic of your little bug loaded down with scrap! As far as I am concerned....my VW bugs can do anything. They are my end all be all as far as cars go. 🤩🤩

[@randallknowles9240]

Hey Paul! Great to see you back in action on the streets of Dekalb! Have you considered expanding the size of your route in an attempt to find more scrap? Just wondering. Even though you have been struggling with physical and dependency challenges, you never forget to consider and reach out to other people and make them more important than yourself. Each day you enrich and bless the lives of many other people. You live out your love for others. Your occupation may be viewed as humble, but your kindness, consideration and Love for other people is magnificent! There are too few people in this world like you! The way you lift others up in your prayers must make the inhabitants of Heaven shout with joy!

Sure am glad you are back. Sure did miss your videos. And having your daughter, son and girlfriend in the videos would be great. Any thing you can do with the ones you love is awesome. Sad news, my brother passed on July 22. He made it three weeks. But he went peaceful and painless. Just what I had asked everyone to pray for. And he was holding his dr pepper when he passed. Thank each and everyone for their prayers. Thank you Mr. Paul for providing a way to have a prayer network. Blessings and peace for everyone.

The two ladies (Michelle and Leeann)from scrap it up had a prayer request from one of their subscribers for you so I worried but prayed with them for y'all but was really relieved by you posting today!

Sounds great, including your family.. glad your shoulder got well.. I got something called trigger finger in my thumb on my right hand. They said you got to get surgery and cut a band in the thumb. I went to a specialist and he said he could give me a shot that was 60 percent that it would heal the thumb. I went for that and prayed God would intervene and heal it. So yeah, no surgery and 2 shots and With God's help it is healed. Surgery isn't always the answer. Glad to see a recent video. Glad your doing well. Thanks Paul...

As always, another fun video Paul, None of my own routes have a trash day today, so this morning I slept late and then when I decide to log into youtube and just see what is going on, there is your newest video right at the top of my notifications so starting my morning off scrapping with you as I drank my coffee and got fully alert this morning. It also helped get me re-energized and ready to go out to my garage and get to work as I have a couple grills and a few other items that are in my back yard that I have not scrapped because of how much of then were stainless. I need to get those broken down and clean up all the stainless off those items and also need to strip some wire and then maybe do a non ferrus run later this evening. Here lately I have gotten slack on that and my garage is piled up with cords and aluminum so on. To the point my wife is starting to complain...lol.......I have gotten bad the last few months to hoard up everything I'm not throwing in the shred pile and not taking the time to process it...lol. Anyway, love the videos. Hope your doing well and have a Blessed day Paul!

His truck was so full but inside the back was 2 treadmills which I pointed out to my wife as being clothes racks. She asked where was I seeing clothes racks in all of that scrap and I pointed out the treadmills and explained why you called them clothes racks. She got a laugh out of that.

Paul, think real hard before having the carpal surgery. I had it and it is not a permanent fix. Then I found that the brace while sleeping works just as good. I wore mine in the day too! Then when it starts feeling good, get an elastic wrist and thumb brace to wear during the day. You will not believe how much better it will feel. God bless you for coming back to us with your videos!

Great that Salvation Army is able to get that food. We are snowbirds, sorta, our home is in Tampa, Fl and we stay in NY State, at the base of the Catskill Mountains for the spring, summer and part of autumn ( best of both worlds). It is usually more comfortable here than in Florida with the summer heat and humidity. This summer has been a little different because it’s been hotter than normal. But, I’ll still take it over the humidity in Florida. The Panera Bread that is here in this small town donates all of their leftover bakery items to charity and homeless shelters. I love that, giving back. Take care, stay safe.
