I got that impression too

@@oukie666 Yeah, he should've gotten her phone number to ask her on a picnic to talk about how he owns a business and helps to save the environment. ROFL

[@Vandal-Vlogs]

I got to drunk after 5 then lost count double whiskeys was a bad idea.

[@toomaskotkas4467]

I can't drink that much.

[@lime1531]

u have picked up a catalytic converter those have platinum, palladium and rhodium in them. at 10.40 in ur video much better price then scrap steel.

[@ihearDeadpeople]

Yup $50 each at my yard

[@jackdean9202]

@@ihearDeadpeople holy crap. some ive heard got up to 70$

[@sclurgess]

Some go for £100's over here. There will be a code on it to get an accurate price

[@austinhemp9422]

I started screaming at my screen when he said "scrap steel"....

[@davidtweeddale5775]

Catalytic converters fetch up to $300 in my neck of the woods depending on what they are. I too was thinking, oh no, not scrap steel.

[@rigroythecarpenter4682]

Best channel ever!!!! I’ve watched a lot of ur videos have learned a lot from you wish there was a way to get in contact with you!! Keep ittt uppp

[@HomecockpitsAndMore]

I just love hearing your voice as you pick up a PC, you seem so happy and cheerful!

[@magnushenriksson6580]

"Yay, awesome!" :)

[@barrywest3758]

COPPER!!! Yah, I thought you were going to miss the last piping! I was saying, nooooooo, go back, look.....then bingo! You found them. Great value load for the size and time. Enjoyed, and thanks for the entertainment!👍👍

[@E-BikingAdventures]

Yah. I thought he was going to miss that too.

[@mascmc1001]

Not sure if that was a catalytic converter on that exhaust pipe but they can be resold on ebay for their platinum and palladium recovery. Certain ones can go for upwards of 1000 USD.

[@pigeonn-_-]

Hi Ben I’ve just make $90 in insulated copper today

[@jackdean9202]

dang thats pretty sick

[@jetman1963]

I think you may have a catalytic converter with the auto exhaust pipe. Yards here have a special price for those. There is platinum, palladium and rhodium, worth more than scrap steel.

[@gillbert2011]

Nice. I was waiting for the weekend street scrapping :) keep up Ben

[@richardburgess5215]

Happy Monday Ben ! Love the street scrap videos

[@shaneyork300]

I liked seeing you pick up something as simple as a pen. There are somethings that I haven't needed to buy from a store in years. Like paper and pens/pencils, lightbulbs from lamps & a nice lamp when I need it. I've got a couple of sweet Dyson vacuums (probably more than $500 brand-new) lots of tools working laptops. I probably save several thousand dollars a year on things I used to buy but now I recycle!! Have a GREAT Day My Friend!!!!

[@baharuddinbesah3709]

Hi Ben Copper & Brass,Steel good price keep scrapping take care your health regard 👍👍👍👍🇸🇬

[@troynixon209]

While you were talking to the lady you keep looking at an old heavy cast iron sink. It had some solid old brass taps.

Thanks a lot for the scraping trip. I wonder if you were able to get the second ultra sound machine; that was a great video to watch finding all the good stuff in it.

[@blal07]

10:56 is that a catalytic converter onto the exhaust pipe? Aren't they worth way more than scrap steel?

[@patdeal8664]

Hello from Canada.

[@dragosc.5743]

Have you ever tried to bring an empty backpack with you ?

[@jackdean9202]

would save him trips back and forth alot. It would be a better thing as a bike scrapper. Would save him fuel slightly in a way.

[@scrapitaus]

Cool video ben

[@solar1Aus]

great post Ben cheers...

[@RoadgamerTV]

"Alright, alright, alright" it´s 1:30 AM in Germany and street scrapping time with Ben(z) ya 🚐🚐🚐 Greets from Berlin 😉👍

[@prospectorpete]

There was a catalytic converters on the exhaust. Loaded full of platinum and palladium and a little bit of rhodium. You could have sold it for a minimum of $80

[@E-BikingAdventures]

You don't seem to care about the most valuable things.

[@capela8669]

Awesome Video it's so motivating to watch you pick through people's "trash" when in reality it's worth so much money. All you need to start this is literally a driver's license and $25 for rental truck at U-Haul and $75 in gas. Literally $100 to get started. Next you'd need the knowledge and off you go. Great video👍👏

[@jwilson1415]

Nice Nintendo cartridge, looked like Turok 2 N64. Not a big priced item here in US probably only around $10-15 but appears to have a crack in the front which probably kills its value. Always could scrap the board and if the back shell is in nice condition with the sticker not ripped it could get a few bucks on Ebay or elsewhere.

[@bunnyfrancis7006]

Love your videos. BTW.....TMI on your "special " cup. Thank you.

[@v1225]

Greetings from the U.S! Is it normal for people to have that much heavy trash and how often does all this trash get thrown out? Weekly, monthly...etc. I'm curious because I've never seen this much trash and goodies like that here in the U.S. Anyone feel free to answer!!

[@GetDougDimmadomed]

Those antique Kirby vacuums can sell for a couple hundred bucks if they work. People collect them. Better than any vacuum you can get today. It'll suck the dirt off your basement floor from the attic.

[@johnmccormack5807]

22:50, Face reveal! Hello Ewaste Ben! Thank you for all the vids! Love from the UK

[@Tloman73agc]

Thumbs down and an unsubscribe for cutting off the cords. If other scrappers can fix & sell or donate working items, you made them useless.

[@sjd73ss]

11 minutes in you have a ford catalytic convertor worth about 250 bucks US

[@jonglewongle3438]

25:37 - a bike frame. He took one of those the other day, but that was aluminium, whereas this one was almost certainly steel [ and maybe would have also required some nasty separating ]. But, then again, he takes only one of two steel frame thingos which are also there, presumably owing to weight, and which does not look like some sort of " keeper ". Judgement calls.

[@user-rs1990]

Are you going to get a towbar installed in your van? I suggest towing a trailer for bulkier loads.

[@DR-kz9ve]

Everyone is entitled to an opinion so here is mine!! Now I know that there will be some comments said and I will sit back and read them all but I will NOT reply to any of them as I don't condone in playing childish games I say it like I see it.... Like I said each to there own!!!. Ben, However I agree that you wish to make a few $$$ with the scrap steel that is great go your hardest. But all the Computer systems that you find some really good systems and some real old ones and the way you pick them up and just throw them around like and old rag!! Where as I repair them and then and give them away to people with special needs and I don't make any money out of it at all the smile on someones face is enough for me and the leftover waste I also give away to a local scrap Metal yard....Also I don't condone in what you and all the other pathetic scrappers are doing by cutting cords off items that may still work, where as people that are doing it extremely hard could put these items to good use!! Like I said I test all items first and give them away if safe to so, but by you and all the other fools doing this you are putting more and more rubbish into landfill unnecessary !!! Last but not least please have a bit of common sense and park your van to the side of the road and then get out and get your scrap your not going to miss out don't just stop in the middle of the street for one it is illegal and inconsiderate and unsafe.

[@susanpiele3372]

The best part of watching your show is that it doesn't take much to make you happy couple of modems a PC a microwave and you're good for the day keep up the good work and keep on being happy it's very enjoyable to listen and watch

[@kevsparky5346]

I could do with so.e subscribers for when I start doing my own channel kev sparky thanks

[@hanslanda5956]

Hey a N64 "Turok 2" cartridge and a X-Box 360 Joypad. Nice.

[@a.b.5372]

In the US we dont have trash like that sitting outside for pick up. So scrapping wouldn't work here like that. There is no money in it unless your a scrap yard to begin with.

[@custos3249]

Ah, man. If that silver PS2 wasn't smashed, it'd be worth a decent price.

[@jackdean9202]

15:27 Are people downright stupid? More scrap for the scrappers! Such a throwaway world.

[@scottybeescrapped4429]

looks like ya scored a catalytic converter i found one and got $250 Canadian for it

[@hugoperez7044]

Good stuff.. when you are walking you should carry a bag and put inside cords and things you are taking instead to carry more amount in one trip

[@scottm344]

Would it not be better to hire someone to help you. You could then pick up all the metals you come across. That would pay their wages and in turn you would have a extra person to help with the e scrap break down

[@viper1106]

11:53 definitely clothes and shoes! 14:09 shoes 27:13 shoes

Good morning or evening just wondered if you ever watch Mike the Scavenger?

AND, WHEN YOU SPOKE TO THE LADY AT FIRST, SHE SEEMED INTERESTED, SO YOU COULD HAVE TOLD HER IF SHE OR HER FRIENDS HAVE SOMETHING REAL OLD BUT NEEDS REPAIRS, AND PLAN ON TRASHING THEM, TO CONTACT YOU.

[@horacepinker6578]

Brisbane city council just announced no more hard rubbish for two years

[@that1guy82]

Sure hope you looked inside that cat before scrapping it cuz if its full its worth more. Could still cut off the one end of the pipe for extra scrap steel too

[@AllStarExt]

Awesome how many videos you're putting out now!!

[@sittingonthecouch2801]

Why don't you take the fan motors? Are they all aluminum on your side of the world?

[@michaelbrumfitt]

👍I’m surprised you left so many crates as you said in a previous video you needed more to store hard drives👍

[@dantunno9264]

Catalytic converters are worth a few bucks these days

[@mauriliozamora6627]

My kind of video Ben, i like to see what you find. Great video, thank you !

[@LivingLife2025]

I feel like it would cost me more in fuel to drive around all day then what I would make on the scrap metal if I tried to do this

[@mrdando]

Why modems. There can’t be mich in them

[@iainlynch2909]

Modems have quite small boards but they often have good gold bearing chips plus half a dozen network connectors with gold pins. They are quick and easy to scrap, so they are pretty decent value all things considered. Not great but there are so many that they soon add up.

[@jackdean9202]

plenty of precious metals though. sell bulk precious metal recovery scrap and you can get a good little bit of side cash.

[@mrdando]

I’m not a scrapper I just enjoy watching so didn’t know Why he goes for little modems/routers when there was a load of big Metal items was that

[@jackdean9202]

Some scrappers are more in it for the fun rather than the money. But it gets you money and its fun. As long as its fun, its not wasting your time. I agree, very fun videos. You should get into scrapping man. Its fun

[@iainlynch2909]

The big metal items are often low value - for example he may get a dollar for the circuit board from a modem compared to 40 cents for a metal bed frame for example. The bed frame would be a lot more effort to move, take up more space and be generally more hassle to deal with. Plus Ben is more into the street scrapping for fun and some value from the value of the bits he picks up than anything, so the bigger metal items are too much hassle normally to meet his criteria.

[@shanemclachlan421]

[@antman3525]

Going from "copper " telephone wire to "fibre optic". Everybody using the net needs to change. And if someone offers a better deal they will often supply a new locked modem.

[@j.m.74]

17:01 - that cord you picked up, and said it must belong to a Nintendo or something good (if I can just find it) is a charging cord which goes to the xBox 360 wireless controller ya tossed into a backpack just a minute or so earlier while exclaiming "ugh, too dirty".
