- Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

ever notice when Mikey gets excited he goes faster and faster,love it
I was thinking the EXACT same thing 😂😅🤣‼️‼️‼️ I ❤it‼️‼️‼️
@@a2tomm He misses a lot of stuff when he gets excited like that!!
He gets frantic. He starts to miss other things because he becomes focused on one thing. Like all the brass dishes in the last dumpster. Meanwhile, he's stomping on antique glassware worth as much or possibly more than the brass. Also, the dark brown pottery pieces may have been worth a bunch, but I never got a good look at it. Some makes are worth a lot of money. It looked like a whole set was there, some damaged. But right maker and one good piece could have been equal to the whole dumpster.
@@Vault57 Let's be real here. That stuff was thrown in the dumpster without care. Most of those plates got broken or chipped before Mike even got there. I understand where you're coming from but selling an incomplete and/or chipped set is very difficult even if it's antique.
Not necessarily, because if you go to some sites just for collecting a certain thing, you can find collectors trying to find pieces to finish their sets. And that my friend is where you can really make some serious money. Around 4-5 ×'s the money than selling a complete set.
In a world that has gone absolutely insane, a 30 minute Mike the scavenger video is a nice change of pace.
Most of the curbside scavengers around here never pickup anything they have to work to strip out the salvageable components. So seeing the work and effort Mike puts in is admirable 😊🎉 also our scavengers here in sw Wisconsin never pick up after themselves like Mike
Looking for a follow up on that brass 😊
Yes….. don’t scrap that welding stuff! SELL MIKEY!! SELL IT.
HAVE A GREAT DAY MY DUMPSTER DIVING FRIEND
Mikes been scraping so long that he sees things as element composition instead of just objects
That's one heck of a brass haul you got there Mike...
Yes! Please follow up...all that brass, stainless and a bunch of aluminum too! Great haul Mike!
12:22 is an EvalTech full-suite objective evaluation and testing system. Worker's comp kinda stuff.

Yes please follow up on the brass! 🙏 Yard trip
20:51 in your left hand they are old ice climbing spikes called “cramp-ons” from the brass award reads from 1958 seems about correct bc that’s when they used to use those back when…😂
This was a very diverse and exciting dive with lots of good stuff found. Thanks for taking us along!
Lots of spaceship stuff today Mike, even the hot pack heater for the spaceship.
May the Brass be with you, brother !! Timbo !
Great haul brother , how about a follow up video ? Keep it up Mike !
That orange wand is a Foreign Voltage Detector. A very nice item to have for safety! Us telephone guys use them every day...
Awedome scrap run Mike 😀🇨🇦
⚡⚡ THANK YOU ⚡⚡
⚡⚡ MR. MIKE ⚡⚡
Great finds! Scrappity Scrap!Peace!😊😊😊
Honestly say I got excited when I saw that me being a welder if I ever crater back in the day I know how expensive that stuff is it definitely truly is dumpster gold a lot of them individual brass fittings are expensive
Awesome video mike thanks for sharing this with us six stars brother
Mike should have a Neflix series on how to quickly organise a pile of junk. one minute its a mess, the next its an work of art.
Great brass finds Mike a follow up would be great.Stay safe out there
At 20:25 he was asking what the chain of spikes were. I'm fairly sure they are a dog collar to protect livestock guard dogs when they fight with wolfs
NICE Brass finds buddy!!
Watch your Head!!
And a bungee cord! Nice!
I think the strange metal objects you found are antennas that emit or receive certain waves.
Even though your work is difficult and tiring, you make it seem fun and worth watching.
Nice finds, as almost always :D shoutout from Romania!
Greetings from Dartford ✋

The Cardon equipment is used for physical therapy. One of them looks like a lift for a pool.
I like when the metal makes that Cha-ching sound for you Mike, good video
The thing with the spikes on in the brass pot dumpster was an old pair of crampons for ice climbing and walking.
Woo hoo🎉 you hit the jack pot. Party at Mike's 😂
