Street Scrapping Sunday, Scrap Yard Monday

Street scrapping was a bit slow today, lot's of scrappers about so wasn't so good on the e-waste side of things.
But still was an ok day for scrap metal and a few good bits like the apple i-mac.
Keep scrapping & Have fun!

[@swampgator2012]

Really enjoy your channel. Thank for great content.

[@judybeckner9047]

You do have an eagle eye for computers. Thanks so much for a new video, I was having withdrawal from your adventures.

[@wastescrapper7692]

Ben we lived in Melbourne for a number of years and to supplement our income we would do Street scrapping and load our station wagon and trailer with useable items and resell them at the Coburg and Thomastown markets. Loved every minute of it and you bring us back so any wonderful memories in your adventures. Thank you for what you do we all enjoy your path you follow. Your a good person and the world is a better place with people like you. Thanks again.

[@gideonbouwman4904]

Ben, You missed out on a 350 dollar speaker, at 21:00 you are looking in that box with the printer and stuff. In there, there was a very good, very nice sounding wireless Bowers & Wilkins Z2 speaker, even for parts it's worth a little (The drivers inside them are desirable)

[@hanslanda4464]

You are the best YT Street Scrapper. Very cool and its a very hard Job. Thank you Ben for your Adventures on the Street.

[@davidranew8386]

Great Video BEN 👍 👍 here and old scrapper trick when you get large metal pipe take hammer and Ben one of it close then put smaller pipe in to fill it up it will weigh more less less space in your vehicle 😀

[@patriciaramirez5632]

That was a great video. Only a bit disappointed I didn't see your cute little chickens. I heard them a couple times, but had my eyes peeled looking for them. Have a great day. And hope to see you again soon.

[@LazieJane]

Love the long videos, settling down with my cuppa now .

[@blal07]

I love when u say microwave when it's a vacuum. It's so fuckin funny. Rare as hens teeth 😂😂😂😂😂

[@dlovett1771]

22:00

[@heidijanegascoigne6202]

Excellent video Ben! Thank you for taking us to the scrap yard again! 👍 Can't wait for more street scrapping, have a great day!

[@Tom22Lr]

You should check skip bins because most renovations have cooper,brass and cables the reason I know that is because I hit the jackpot on that 1 small skip coming out with 15 dollars of scrap

[@morr1sss43]

Yeee 2 hour video!🙌🏻🎉 Ben you’re a legend!

[@CovidConQuitTheCensorship]

Love your start to each video "Gidday scrappers" 😁 Your videos are very chilled, relaxing to watch. After a busy day, just what I need right now

[@mortenhenningsen940]

I know you dont got the space,but you should have a trailer with tall walls,to just put scrap Steel in,and then just drag it to scrap yard when it is full and you fill the van with other junk. Two loads in one trip

[@dlovett1771]

Morten Henningsen current van doesn’t have a hitch

[@mortenhenningsen940]

@@dlovett1771 no hitch is a bitch,haha. Roof/ski rack could help with long items. Good luck scrapping and posting good videos 👷‍♂️🤙👏🏻👍🏻

[@RustyNail5856]

Excellent video , love the street scrapping video. I love these where you show the whole process all in one video. great job , take care, Ben.

[@sebastianmelmoth9100]

I don’t know how BEN manages to keep all the different categories of scrap and cords and wires and populated PC cards and motors and mixed iron and steel and aluminum metals and iron ewaste and and mixed brass scrap and so forth all straight in his mind. Because I see he rarely leaves a penny of value behind. I’d love it if BEN would say what the specific items are worth by the kilo as he goes along. Like those little transformers and all the boards and drives, and also what the buyers do to make a profit on their end. Like the hard-drive buyers. What’s their profits ? Thanks for the entertaining vids, Ben!

[@patrikb1161]

1 second into the video and I'm already in a good mood. Thank you man!

[@katherineorourke3330]

Love the video and the trip to the scrap yard. Thanks

[@Alrik.]

Nice video, I love these where you show the whole process!! Also nice hoard of construction materials next to your house :D Good luck with the garage!

[@michaelbrumfitt]

👍Slow start tuned into a van full nice touch with the apple👍

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Great job Ben. Always fun to watch you do this and making a decent return. Keep it up and hope to see more!

[@RoeMantic]

They forgot to leave money In that register! They didn't get the memo!

[@dlovett1771]

Roe Mantic should of at least thrown a couple coins in so someone would take it! haha

[@emg58104]

I love that you do what makes you happy. You don't just get a boring job and are willing to work hard for everything you have. I'm the same way with IT contracting.

[@CatNolara]

Awesome, would like to see a video of taking copper, brass, bronze etc. to the yard.

[@jeep2003]

Around here almost nothing is recycled. Just certain paper and plastics. they dont even take glass anymore! All straight to the landfill

[@lowe1677]

love the street scapping vids,wish they did that in uk.

[@jackwilkinson2343]

Hi Ben, I doubt youll see this but I'd like to see more marathon/garage cleanout type of videos.

[@oldhamegg]

14:52 HE DID IT!!! HE TOOK THE WHOLE BUCKET!!!! WHOOP WHOOP!!!!

[@joan7823]

Morning all...

[@donsparrow1782]

Great video again, thanks Ben

[@MD4564]

love your videos mate :) I can't believe how much good stuff especially Furniture is left. Garden tools, I think it's a sign :P

[@wally8075]

Good video!

[@oukie666]

Wooo hooo new street scrapping video.

[@susanpiele3372]

Today I'm staying home because it's cold in the North and I live in North North America way up almost to Canadian Warrior and it's so it's starting to be winter here I'm watching your hundred PC Marathon I didn't realize you got sick in India I'm not surprised that is the dirtiest country I've ever heard of I was surprised it's for a smart guy you went to India of all the places you could have gone I hope you just didn't last too too long I was with you when you had covid that didn't last me looking guy I enjoy spending that quiet times with you you're quite a storyteller

[@shaneyork300]

That was nice to see something thrown in that's not normally in the same video!! I LOVE that you are changing it up!!! Don't forget to show CPU's on pc's that you pick up when you get them!! Especially the older ones!! Thanks Ben!!!

[@ritapadilla4094]

Grate job ben gave bless day

[@ifyareckon]

Have had a couple of new guys the last couple of trips to that yard, knowledge of what is what is lacking. Had one bloke put my bin of mid grade wires through as low grade 🙄

[@eWasteBen]

always confirm what they grade things as before they write it down, if not what you expect then take it back and go around the corner to harts for a 2nd opinion

[@rarerecordreporter]

you can twist the handle bar parallel to the front wheel to flatten it

[@nerys71]

it was letting you know your pointing device was not detected. it was showing you a touch pad saying plug it in or turn it on or check batteries. most likely system was corrupted or formatted and it could not boot properly hence taking a while and it asking you to restore or reinstall. Looks like you got a real gem their. seems to be fully working. kick ass.

[@southaussiegarbo2054]

Lovely to se another aussie doing this

[@harryverboom4032]

Yes youre a better scrapper than a pianoman keep scrapping ben

[@thefirebirdflock3440]

Isn’t the KZbinr BigstackD Casting also in your country? (Australia I believe. it has been a while since I checked, sorry if I’m wrong) it calms to mind when you found the bucket of brass and other goodies you picked up.

[@Campbell400]

Yeah he is different state but

[@mauriliozamora6627]

Two hours of street scrapping video, love it !

[@CovidConQuitTheCensorship]

I saw a cash register yesterday and made damn sure I checked it, after your good fortune 😉 but someone got there before me. The whole drawer was gone 😠 I've probably told you this before but my scrap yard won't take transformers at all. Bummer. I used to make okay money from them, find whole boxes of them routinely, but don't even pick them up anymore. They said it's not worth it for them. They don't get enough out of them. Fair enough I suppose

[@grandpakevin3354]

How long have you been scrapping e waste? I started to scrap about 1 month ago and I find I like the e waste most of all.

[@eWasteBen]

6 years or so, yes, e-waste is the most interesting part of scrapping

[@raymondcote6669]

Funny. Vacuums are microwaves and sewing machines are irons. Seems i have problems with names too but cannot remember what

[@PoliceChaplainMisty]

Nice video Ben and at 34:11 someone had a very creative mind makeing that push bike out of wood! Stay safe in all you do

[@terileuck3211]

Love the videos as always

[@daveansarahpartridge6686]

Hi Ben love the street scrapping

[@AllStarExt]

Just got my self a devil forge!! Looking forward to more metal melting vids

[@pederlindstrom3132]

Hello Ben, Sweden here again. My yard takes those compressors as electric motor as long as I drain the oil. I get about 8 - 20 of them in a month along with the ones from fridges. Makes good weight atleast.

[@jezzermeii]

1:29:18 - "I haven't got a mouse handy" - This made me chuckle so much, hahaha. So much stuff all around him and there wasn't a mouse, haha. :P Keep up the great work mate, all the best! :)

[@kenyonbissett3512]

That bucket was made for kid work. My dad had us do stuff like that.

[@msylvain59]

A video of nearly 2 hours ??? If it continues like that, watching youtube will soon be a full time job.

[@broadstken]

I've noticed in some older videos some fairly high end home and PA speakers on the streets, just wanted to give a heads up that many of those will have a removable back plate where the connections are and there will be a crossover board inside that can have some pretty nice copper coils on it

[@blal07]

Ben u have to start checking in the luggage n cloth bags for bundles of cord food. Even just to satisfy our curiosity of was there or wasn't there.

[@blal07]

I WANT them all to be filled with cord food for you.

[@blal07]

Just after I say check luggage n bags u check luggage n bags. 😂 thank you

[@mercedes300gd]

you are living the life of my dreams haha, i would love doing that if i had a space to do it and people actually put it on the street like that! tnx for the good video!

[@RagingDong]

Ladnfill today, high grade metal ore 200 years later

[@dlovett1771]

RagingDong you’re very right. why mine rock when you can get methane from a landfill and then get plastic feedstock and metals that are already refined.

[@adude7050]

If those keys were Ivory they were worth a good buck.

[@seamusmcelroy8352]

great vid ben loved playing on paino more vids we love them cheers

[@brendamiller8140]

Enjoyed the video.

[@GHOSTHUNTER30]

Time for the passenger seat to go and a bin to come in ;) aha nice vid Ben!

[@shaneyork300]

To start, I want to give you the price at the time I had this issue happen to me. Light iron was 8 cents a pound and average aluminum was 35 to 40 cents a pound. I know this will sound crazy, but it's true. I had as you would say "irony alloy" to take to the scrap yard. A whole truck load. So out of habit I call ahead to get an idea of the price I'm going to get for it. They said it was 7 cents a pound!!! I was sure they misspoke or I heard them wrong, so I asked again and made sure we were VERY CLEAR of the type of items I was bringing in. Which was 80% or higher aluminum, some of the pieces just had things like 2 washers that couldn't have weighed over 2 ounces on a long pole of aluminum!! I was blown away and ticked off that they wanted to pay me less for irony alloy than me just throwing it in with steel!!! I took out the easy to process pieces then added a bunch of steel to the rest and got a little more money!! Sounds Crazy But True!!! Have a GREAT Day, Ben and All !!!

[@aakasoto]

Have you ever found a sword in Street Scrapping?

[@yanlzcagercekler7252]

If you collect the speakers, you will get the coils from them.

[@NumberOneCards1]

you need some type of bins (or bin holders ) bolted to inside of truck, on higher level to hold cords and maybe another one to hold the good stuff, might make things easier when unloading, but anyways thanks for all the great videos

[@the3rdbestnikkashopinyoura540]

Nice Mustang 49:10 Looks like the Mac owner wiped the drive before setting it out. So many coffee machines and vacuum cleaners

[@markavargosr36]

watch out there is a cord cutter in your neighborhood. Yes cords.

[@southaussiegarbo2054]

Roughly 660 tons of batteries are put in australian landfill every year

[@mortenhenningsen940]

Have you considerd song å hacksaw ør angelgrinder? Like the chair bottom, just cut of the part where the Iron is mounted,and you got clean aluminium. Just a little work and doble the value?

[@bigcountryscrapper6885]

Another awsome video bro keep scrapping

[@jetman1963]

nice pipe stock Ben

[@michaelroberthaines6604]

the blue light are great and cost me $199 at bunnings

[@radionutio81ij79]

Nice upload today Ben I had a feeling you would find a computer regards from a uk pom.👍

[@gortnewton4765]

at 42:46 take those new-in-box fluro lamp fitting for your garage/shed on your country property for when you build it.

[@emilrieser8971]

They looked like troffers,not much use unless you've got a grid ceiling. The tubes will keep falling out,lol

[@Michael-db1ce]

I agree. That’s what I would say about bikes if I drove around picking scrap steel. Leave bikes.

[@dejantomic5353]

YOU KNOW :)broo you made my day ;) nice videos..

[@shanehurenkamp50]

Instead of buying another van you should look at buying a 2 tonne Car licence truck with a flat tray and put some removable gates on it that are about 1.5 Metres high

[@robertevras6577]

I learned from you to keep a screw gun in my truck....when I see any tube tv out on the curb, I get some free copper! I am down to 2 min or less on almost any tv. Those big ones I just scrap curbside and screw the back right back on....I learned from the best mate! On a lite day like this one...what keeps you from grabbing the yokes when you see them? Just curious...

[@raymondcote6669]

Have never seen you use those blue lights at your home

[@benhumphregys3087]

I love to see copper

[@pyredynasty]

The globe is tubular.

[@tequilamokkingbyrd2016]

First stop there is a couple of the same square beds from separate houses. Does Australia have those do not pull tags on them that say u could be fined or arrested for removing

[@oukie666]

Nerf blaster spotted at 27:42 has a very rare and desirable stock attachment, those yellow extendable stocks are worth £20 UK

[@funkblack]

Why are ballasts so dangerous? You'd think the current would drain in that much time.

[@emmasigler7089]

Hey from USA🇺🇸🇺🇸🌺🌺

[@aga5897]

Danger! Danger! Danger Ben Scrapingham ! "That might come in handy" = Hoarder. That entire pile of steel tubes behind the house - sell it all as scrap steel. Do it now. If you have no immediate need for any of it, sell it as scrap as soon as there is enough weight. Your wife will like you more.

[@danielgerecke2936]

Damn could've had the copper in the microwave easy to take apart and easy to test the capacitor too couldve taken both engines off the lawn mowers

[@Campbell400]

How much can you scrap a lawn mower for ?

[@Campbell400]

I work construction i get lots of scrap wire and sometimes copper pipe but lately in demos ive been talking old fridges and white goods to scrap

[@Veasel1000]

Hey Ben. That piano here in Poland will be worth about 300-400 usd. Please make an video like scrap or starve.

[@toomaskotkas4467]

Come to Canada, we have shit load of pianos for free.

[@scarletmoon777]

Hi Ben another great video out of curiosity did you ever sell the pink kids card from the Scrap or Starve, Street Scrapping for CASH - Scrap Steel Scavenge video last November

[@eWasteBen]

Yes I sold it for a 6 pack of beer to a friend

[@mikeyr5689]

so yeah hum yeah hum yeah lol

[@RagingDong]

How many days ahead is staya?

[@Campbell400]

Hey ben in your vids could you give a scrap price on some items like tge hard drives , mowers and some others

[@krisgadgets9353]

take the Passenger seat out Bolt in a Wheeli Bin :P

[@davehazel1994]

posh scrapping , jeez a bit of oil is good for the van

[@ImClassix]

It should be scrap yard Saturday

[@donnierobertson3088]

Nice

[@GetDougDimmadomed]

Who just throws away a working piano? And a vintage one at that?

[@jbarbatano]

Anyone else think Ben needs to invest in a small trailer or two? He loses so much time to moving materials around, loading and unloading the van, sorting into bins, sorting out of bins, etc. Lean manufacturing principles, here - all movement is waste! I keep a small utility trailer for my scrap steel and just let it pile up. I don't touch it until I unload it at the scrap yard.
