- 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!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months. Be sure to stay subscribed to stay up to date with my latest expeditions, y'all!
Aaahhhh yeah!!! The Pepsi song as me & my other punk friends in the 80s called it. Such a great song of teenage angst. You get cooler every video Mike! 💜🤘🏻😆
“Ain’t no hidin’ from this cat…” 😁😸
Thanks, Mike, for another trip with you and Betty. ✌🏼
“Shore do gotta purdy mouth…” 😂😂
Mike! You’re a scoundrel. 😊
Those metal desks are worth quite a bit of money 💰 Mike 😊
The desk looks like it was used by the military?
@@marilynhemingway5219 Possible. Maybe a “government” job?
All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi.
That brings me back.
Thank you, Mike ❤
You are so fortunate. Just watched THUB Print scavenging in snow covered dumpsters in Ontario, Canada! Nothing can deter a real scavenger!😊
That guy needs to move!! I’ve watched him scrap with everything buried solid in snow!! No thank you!!
Haha suicidal tendencies lyrics there Mike. Good tunes dude. Keep up the good work
Does the wife know your showing leg Mike .she,s lucky to have you. Enjoy your scrapping leg show was a bonus for us ladies.😂❤
Big Trouble in Little China reference. Great classic.

All of those Houston airport trays would make excellent cat litter boxes.😸💩

That desk is worth a small fortune to the right person collecting mid century modern furniture. An antique shop would like that piece!
Keep it close to your vest.
🫶🏻💯🫶🏻
That looks like a Steelcase desk made in Michigan❣️
Nice torque wrench!! 19:30 nice laptop bag & electronic stuff! The one item might be a portable DVD player!! 22:15 double nice! 2 PCs!! 👏👍
You go Mike. Thrive in 25. Best to you and yours.
Box with the slim jim those other pieces are part of the slim jim kit.
Suicidal, and Big Trouble... Gold pop Culture references! Nice!

Mike, you are the king of organization to make all that fit in there. I am impressed, 😮 job, great haul
Hi Mike hope you had a wonderful holiday so glad to see you
I worked for a school district in maintenance, one of the teachers had a green metal desk like that. We called it the Carrier, as in Aircraft Carrier. We all hated moving that thing!
All the best Mike, that was a good load :)
Big Trouble in Little China one of Kurt Russell best movies ❤
Love that metal desk! I have one very much like it and love it.
The metal desk would make a great shop table. Would last for ever
It looks brand new at least on video.
@@jtatl3311 my dad had a desk like that in his work office! Did a lot of drawing on that table!❤️
Wow got into the paint again love ❤️ it ❤️
Wooooow the desk !Fun as always Mike .💯👍
Have a good one Mike ! Scrap Long and Prosper !
Glad you’re back! Missed you Mike!
Excellent haul and great commentary as always!!!
Starting 2025 off with a great start Mike! Keep up the good work.
Omg!! That was a slim Jim!! And yes they still work!
The desk is a flash back from working at Fort Bragg from 1973 - 2013, they were in every office!! Good haul Mike, Happy New Year!!
Thanks for sharing another great scrap video 😃🇨🇦
Awesome adventure mike thanks for sharing this with us six stars brother
Enjoy watching you scrapping
Happy new year may it be fruitful for all
As long as we watch his videos because that’s where the money is at the scrap is chump change and tax free
Don't blame you for not taking that nasty refrigerator, but that's a good start to the new year, hope you have a blessed year and be safe
All the best to you and yours Mike!!!!!!! Lots of love from South Africa
Hi Mike great to see you today
Love the Big Trouble in Little China ref ... old Porkchop Express rides again!
You know what ol Jack Burton always says at a time like this? says Kurt Russell.
It is good to know I am not the only one that loved that movie.
Hi Mike so chilly 🥶 in the uk
Also in the Netherlands 🇳🇱. Nights are -0°C.Days around 6°C.🥶
A great video to brighten my day! TC.
Have a wonderful scrapping new year Mike. I really enjoy your videos and now my Granddaughter asked to watch them when we get together. She is 9 years old and gets a kick out of how your sing and talk to the stuff I the dumpsters. 😊
Happy Sunday Mike 💯

Great start to the new year! Scrappity Scrap! PEACE! 😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉
Great vid Mike i love your sense of humour mate you do alright most times on the scrap looking forward to the rest of the year.
Hope all is well with you buddy
Watch your head!!!!
Hey Mike sure glad to see the New Year is starting out in your favor!! Good Luck going forward and MAYBE thhis year you'll find a box of MONEY????
Best thing to hear for the new year.....is Mike saying he's all about it!!!!🎉!!!🎉!!🎉!
The metal desk is a year older than I am. Those were everywhere for a while, because you couldn't kill them. Awesome things. The paper cutter is more 1970. Sharpen the blade up a bit and she'll go another 50 years with no problem. And we've got a spaceship. Ho gauge alas, but a spaceship. Somebody call Ant Man!
Yep I worked at Cat for 37 years and there were thousands of them all over the offices all the way into the late 80s / 90s and there were still lots left in the shop areas into the 2010's. bullet proof
You made my day with the Big Trouble reference. It's always one of my top 10
Grüße aus dem Saarland. Und frohes neues Jahr 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for another great video Mike

Hello Mike That framed picture of the race cars might be a Bruce Johnson (money in PA. ) The frame itself are usually aluminum LOVE THE VIDEOS Dave from Pa.
Congratulations on getting the truck full for the first haul of the year. Very nice load of scrap
Yay!!!! Been waiting for the New Year Drop. Thanks Mike!!!!!
That was hilarious the institution bed 😂😂
Good day Mike, I'm glad to see that you survived the year-end madness.
I was born in 64 and I remember those desks, great quality damn near indestructible.
Bullets and car theft items in the same box. You should dust for prints.🤣
"Looks like vomit", then he jumps right in. Gotta love the determination!
Welcome back Happy New Year 🥳 🎉
Best wishes for a prosperous New Year Mike!
Good load Mike. All I got was covid... again. Get it out of the way early I always say! Best yet to come I'll be watching

Happy New Year
Another fabulous dive!!💙
Mike + paint = catastrophe ❤
Paint plus world too
happy new year mike,,,,to you and yours, hope you have a great year. God Bless and take care..
You said that the desk was almost as old as you, meaning that you are at least 59. That is simply amazing, the way you climb and jump around. I believe that you may not have meant that, but if you did, congratulations!!
He aint 59 lol
That desk is four years older than I am..I’m 55 y/o.
Nope; I do not move like that. 😂
I wouldn’t dare.
Mike reminds me an awful lot of my little brother..who would’ve been 49 ys/o on his last birthday.
It was Mike’s riding around on his skateboard and bike looking through the dumpsters that was the hook, for me. 😂
I suspect The Scavenger may have arrived in the world in the mid to the later ‘70’s..?
I’ve always wondered!! 🤷🏼♀️😉
Mike never gets old 😂,he is still a lovely boy.
Those Paper Cutters sell pretty good. My wife would love one of those older style built to last.
Great load mike..😊😊😊
There is a blizzard here in Kansas, and your wearing shorts.lol❤❤😊😊 see ya Mike.
That Desk is exactly as old as me 😛
5:39 I used to watch Pingu on cable TV back in the 90s.
Happy new year, MIke!
Many greetings from Germany, Bavaria. I wish you a Happy New Year, Josef
cool Dumpster mike
Mike I bet you are awesome at Tetris the way you pack your truck lol. That digital torque wrench was a great find. You must have one heck of a tool collection now. God bless and have a great day.
Three water tanks with brass AND copper. Bonus scrap!!!!
