Surviving a windy LANDFILL adventure

[@Skorpychan]

The first mystery item is conduit! The outer insulation protects the cables it's wrapped around, and keeps them bundled together. It's definitely recyclable if you've got the right machine to shred it and pull out the copper. And there looks to be quite a bit in there. Stick that on the side, it's likely worth something! You could shred the cardboard and turn it into compost, though. You'd have to find a way to get the tape out, but the rest would rot down just fine. Worms love rotten cardboard.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Thanks for the tips!!

[@shelfridges]

Watching from Sheffield in the UK, I never thought I would find landfill and mulching so fascinating. What a great collection of proper big toys you have at your disposal.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Thanks for watching in the UK!

The magnet is great...must have paid for itself in a very short time...😊👍

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

It does an amazing job!

[@jamesstandridge8757]

I enjoy your videos a lot. You all have turned that pile of logs into mountain of mulch. Please tell the grumpy old man praying for a fast recovery.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Will do, thank you!

great video Ryan, love it when you walk around and just show us what's going on every where, hope that bee 🐝 catcher gets you a new hive.👍👍👍👍👍

How do you stay sane with all the projects and problems to stay running?

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

That’s simple…… I don’t! 🤪

[@jameslopez407]

Its aluminum or copper 🎉🎉🎉 you could start making more money when you sort all that stuff out

21:00 looks to be old cable tv strand and cable.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Yeah maybe, I have no idea

[@TassyDeval]

Do you radio back to the weighbridge and tell them that illegal waste was dumped and then increase the dump fee when they weigh off?

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

We usually catch it as soon as it comes off the truck and load it back on them. If it takes more time than usual we will charge a fee

[@Txblackbeard]

Can’t those pallets be recycled Mr Digg?

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Sure could, if I had the time to separate them out

[@bw6378]

The stuff on the black spools is Coaxial cable (trunk and feeder) for cable TV. The sticky stuff in the cable is called flooding compound, which is intended to leak out and keep the aluminum protected if the outer jacket gets damaged. Too bad you cant run some incinerators for the wood and such, but im sure that would be too costly. Thanks for the video!

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Thanks for letting me know!

[@Sicktrickintuner]

@@TheRealMrDiGG Yep definitely thought the same thing, looked like feeder cable line that gets strung up on the hydro poles. 100% has copper in it. Even if it’s only 10-20% recovery @4 per lb.

The reels with cables looks like cable TV hardline with the the supporting cable. The hardline is 75 ohm cable and is aluminum. Ron

[@SLCFarms]

Boy it sure has been windy lately. I’ve been needing to spray fields but no way this past couple weeks

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

It’s been insane!!

[@stevestillplaysgames5732]

And those silvery cables are aluminum power lines and would be worth some good profit if scrap aluminum prices ever rise up to make the aluminum market worth putting in the back and arm braking work

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Hopefully prices will go back up!

[@Sicktrickintuner]

Ya looked kinda like ACSR cable if it was aluminum in that massive reel of cable. The white like on it types gives it away for a neutral cable and the steel cable that allows it to hang overhead that is spooled together with it.

[@josephs8364]

im 32 and was smiling so big watching y'all try and smash that wood.. big kids inside just like me.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Fun aint it?!

[@jebmcdonald5709]

Capital waste has been buying up a bunch of landfills in the southeast. They just bought one near me in Myrtle Beach.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Yes, I’ve heard of them

[@golfbravowhiskey8669]

@23:16. That's old time cable TV that still has the strand on it. They are wrecking it out all over the United States replacing with fiber optic that stuff is worthless.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Unfortunately it is worthless

[@norman8269]

If that big chunk of wood was on solid ground you would've seen pieces fly everywhere, and those spools of wire looked like that optic fiber line

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Would be cool if it was on solid ground!

[@christopherleblanc9599]

your site is ideal for future mining of resources "remediation "as it does not include "decomposing garbage" ,like a regular land fill , so way less toxic compared too demo waste decomposition on future miners too deal with , as long as you can avoid any of the asbestos that get buried , maybe set aside a special local for the buried asbestos and not buried in the general waste , too improve future remediation of the site too extend the over all life too the site , the base of the new pit is great if all the whole base gets covered filled asbestos maybe a thick white sand layer to mark the cover of the asbestos then trash on top , you know not too go beyond the top cover white sand layer when future mining could take place so as not too disturb the asbestos layer base , thus then can be refilled above that white cover base layer keeping the asbestos in tombed and reclaiming the recycling and back filling the non recyclables , that would be in a perfect world ,but hey why not strive for perfection or as close as possible and become the industry leaders 🤓

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Great “future” thinking! Thank you

You talk about that log not breaking up, but I’m more impressed with how much it compacted down into the floor. Really shows how everything squishes. I’d still love to see a video with Dad about the history of the landfill and the companies

No problem 👍

[@m2hmghb]

The problem is the profits aren't there at the levels companies want if the product lasts a long time. I just replaced the electric wood chipper I had, the switch went bad. At the same time the motor was starting to go and there were other issues creeping up. The price of the switch was 30 dollars and the motor was 80. For that price it doesn't make financial sense to repair it. Love the content, I just wish there were more companies like yours.

That cable is high voltage cable that’s what we used on our continuous miners underground coal mines and they were 995 volts so that cable is well worth recycling you’re probably looking at 1500 to 2000 dollars. So definitely recycle it.

Didn’t look like much copper in it

You’re right if big companies would help with cost of recycling the waste they deposit into your landfill then you could do like you said recycle more of the waste they’re putting on the landfill so you could build your recycling systems that would help you and cover cost of paying workers who could use a job and help the landfill and the planet become more productive recycling like some other countries have invested into their recycling ♻️ infrastructure and in the USA 🇺🇸 we do waste a lot of stuff but i think you’re doing a hell of job talking about what could be and really should be done 👍😎🇺🇸 NY
