Well they say you can take the scrapper out of the scrapyard, but you cant take the iron out from his blood LOL! I totally believe it too. I guess my scrapping obsession started long ago for me. Being raised in the suburbs of Detroit, we were about as far from well off as a family can be. We were not starving, but money was scarce and I soon realized the value of a dollar.
I have had a variety of jobs in my life. However the two most pleasing ones were finance and scrapping. Finance can help best to pay them bills, but scrapping is for the soul.
A special thank you to the ever lovely Hive account@dswigle that puts so much effort into supporting her Market Friday tag.
I took off a whole lot of stainless from that old fridge. No wonder it cost so much to begin with OMG! That will be taken into the yard on a different trip when I take all my non-ferrous stuff like stainless or brass. That small stuff adds up fast!
They group all of the refrigerators together so they can take out the refrigerant so it doesnt hurt the ozone layer in the sky.
In years past, I have seen the iron mountain much bigger. I am sure Covid has slowed business. I was the only guy on the scales when typically there is a waiting line.
I think I did ok. I didnt have much choice. The power company will take it and give you 50 bucks. However they will not come inside the home to get it out because of Covid. They want it outside AND in running condition. I tried to get it out, but was afraid of damaging the walls or floors, so I had to dismantle it. Such goes my Charlie Brown life.
that puts so much effort into supporting her Market Friday tag.
