The guy that was cleaning out the house probably had lots more scrap and yard sale stuff. Hope you got his number and went back as he seemed eager to give away lots of good things. When he said he had some unopened board games I would have taken them as you could have easily flipped them at the Flea market. Cheers.....Scott
At 2:43 you can see some car speakers, those are pretty heavy for their size(because of their magnets) so I think they are great for light iron scrap. Also can you activate preview on the videos(it shows a small image when you put the mouse on the time cursor) if it does not bother you? Missing power cables doesnt neccesary mean somebody beat you to it, I always cut the power cable when I throw something away because it is good to have for other electrical problems or even use it as rope because its strong. Great video.
Think you could think outside the box sometimes. There was as a baby/pet gat you left that if you couldn’t sell, you could have split with someone (maybe Ernie) who could. I’ve totally been binge-watching. I find this freaking fascinating. We don’t have this in Texas that I’m aware of. If we do, I’m sure, with the size of our state it would take us much longer to get from one place to another. Keep doing it taco stacker. I know things get hard.
When they have bags with the handles you should always take them so when you sell at the flea market to people you can put that stuff in them especially older people cuz you give them a bag anyway just saying
Great finds! Awesome video could you please position your camera up alittle so we can see the items fully . I see someone else has also commented re this...maybe a different camera
Toco,,hope you dont get a hernia from all that you lift,,its easy way to happen,, when you are working alone,,love all your work,, you are great at what you do, a good teacher,..,have a great day,,CHERI DOW,,
Hi I was wondering what do you do with the car battery may be a dumb question but is it part of scrapping ? And if so what category of scrap is it lol ty
Car battery goes to the scrap yard, they pay you $8 a car battery and if it's less than 35 pounds it ends up being $0.22 a pound, I believe that battery I ended up getting around $7.20 for at the scrap yard. Thanks.
If I was there I would have grabbed all the toys, washed them and donated them to pet shelters, children's hospitals, and toys for tots during Christmas :)
Glad you have that cage metal behind you protecting you from sliding junk. When something smells bad, like the scale, it's probably mold, and you shouldn't smell mold- bad for your lungs. I wouldn't pick it up, just leave it. Smelling that mold is bad for your health, especially black mold.
Some cat lady will buy anything that pertains to a CAT!!....Did you grab that cat stand or cat tree???? They buy that stuff as well! I found out along time ago when grabbing stuff, its not what you like but its what they like.....When i first started i couldnt figure out why nothing was selling....hahaha
Jeff P ..its so funny you mention that because I was thinking the same thing; noooo don't leave the kitty condo..I would have taken it!!🐈 That one would sell for $300 retail here. they are not cheap. Some low income person would have loved that for their furbaby. 🐈🐈
Nina Dickson....Exactly!!!....You tend to over look those items of great value when your only looking for certain items all the time! But maybe he will comment but i doubt it. Im starting to think he is the type that already knows what to do and doesnt take "advise" very well...LOL I done this buy & sell thing for over 25yrs.....you learn something new all the time!!
Jeff P Jeff thank you for commenting. you seem to know where it's at. This young fella seems focused only on the scrap aspect, where I'm thinking and I'm sure from your reply that you do too, those nice dressers, coffee tables, baby toys and yessir, anything cat or pet related could help someone just starting out. Ì cringe when these things are passed by, it defiantly isn't cheap for kids just setting up their first apartment or a family starting over. there defiantly is a market for these things. xx 🐈🐈
Your absolutely correct....There is certain items that your eyes will smack right on it like a magnet and the CAT TREE is one of those items! It might not suit your taste but its not what you like or want or need, its what SELLS!!!...Nina, your gonna have to show him darlin!...lol
Jeff P : Jeff you sound like a great guy. 😊 I'm in Ontario Canada & that cat tree here retails for $300!! 🐈 I would have GLADLY paid taco $20- $25 for it. My furbaby is too old, but I would have gifted it to a senior with a kitty or a shelter. There you can see, youngster passed up on a $25 sale on just this ONE item. I have a fella on my block who used to have a stall at the local antique store and he curbs everything that does not sell ..its cringeworthy what goes in the garbage. At least take it to the Goodwill or something. You sound like you have a lot of compassion for people and animals..noone else but us 2 will even mention the cat tree on this thread, I guarantee you. never lose that quality. xx 🐈🐈
Shocked at how much is thrown away in your area and how cheap things go for at the flea market, but you go in thrift stores and you would think you were in Macys. What type of economy, jobs, etc. in the areas where you pick trash. I know there are a lot of senior home clean outs, but what about the 20-30 folks. They throw out so much it is shocking. Makes me wonder where they work or if they work.
Amazing the toss aways. Just found out one of our Goodwills is raising prices. They throw a ton of it away cause it's trash or overpriced. Can't save it all.
Henry S wow that's nothing I live in GA and the good will here I forgot witch one but there was a homeless pregnant women in the rest room and she had a accident on herself and Didn't have no money to buy some fresh clothes and the manger came in there and she didn't help the pregnant mom who was homeless
That's not their mission. They leave that up to the other "charities" They send many of the clothes overseas. Not sure, but the people who need it, don't get it.
I sell older and newer hospital beds really fast; and for good money. Hope you are not scrapping them. Put them on Craigslist or a local buy & sell site; $80. - $150. each.
Hey you have to start looking at Pinterest more to see the potencial of the things you leave behind! People would pay good money for the things you think are ruined...
Talk about stink lol my son shot a goose ,butchered it and left the rest in the hot sun:/. Felt sorry for the garbage man,had to give him extra in his Christmas card lol
Hey. Your videos are great. However, I noticed you cut the cord off of something. It always bugs me when people do that. A few times there were things we would have picked up to use but the cords were cut off, so the whole thing went to garbage instead of getting used. Oh well.
Do you really make enough money doing the scraping and sales to make a living? It seems like you are working yourself to death for a small amount of money. I may be missing something that's why I'm asking? Not trying to say there is anything wrong with what you are doing because I enjoy watching your videos. I use to have a paper route and on trash day i would find all kind of cool stuff. I would take it home clean it up and have a huge sale about once a month and make $1,000 or more. I also had some apartments and when they kicked someone out they put all there belongings in the trash. I drove a truck on my route so it was pretty easy to have a truck load at least once a week.
Scrapping pays for the gas and what not for my jeep and van for the week usually. I am a full time reseller, I would say reselling is 90% of my income. I couldn't live off what I make by scrapping haha.
Goodwill verses trash and the blankets to Human Society or what ever rescues they have where you live. They need blankets desperately so please don’t trash them if their good.
"gotta cross lake Ontario.." and "holy cow, good thing I've been eating some tacos.." hahahahahahahahaha u crack me up 😄
"Holy smokes"... LOL... I'm used to everyone making fun of the way I talk, but these videos are golden!! Hours of entertainment!! Good job!!
Really like your video's about garbage picking and the Flea market.. Thanks

a lot of good stuff man!!! haha that pole you stopped for lol

Great video.

Great video perfect length full of great finds.
Good stuff Taco - you really get a good workout! 😳
I came across water heaters until I got some pipe wrenches to get the brass fixtures off. Haven't found another yet.
spray black spray paint on the coffee table. price it at 60 bucks then just take the first offer at the flea. it pains me the stuff you pass up.
Hello ray here from New York great video buddy keep it going ✌️
Love to watch you work...you make it interesting.....I look for your vblogs
There’s a guy at our local flea market who sells old vacuums, they go for $5 on up. He has a little generator to let folks test them out.
Dang Dude Awesome finds. I wish I could do that. WooHoo!
Absolutely living the dream!!!!
What do you do with hot water heater??
Glad to see you brought water
where do you take the meal scraps?
Oh snap turn that water heater into a BBQ. You got all the parts there. Bed frames for legs and supports. Hinges handles. 😆

You do think of other people I can say that keep up the good work I love watching your videos you find such good treasures
When they have bags with the handles you should always take them so when you sell at the flea market to people you can put that stuff in them especially older people cuz you give them a bag anyway just saying
I’m here for the🐈weird stuff. You find a lot of cat scratching posts. 👍🏽🤚🏽☮️
Great finds! Awesome video could you please position your camera up alittle so we can see the items fully . I see someone else has also commented re this...maybe a different camera
Cant believe you didnt take those speakers. Those would of gone quick for a easy $100 at the flea market
Toco,,hope you dont get a hernia from all that you lift,,its easy way to happen,, when you are working alone,,love all your work,, you are great at what you do, a good teacher,..,have a great day,,CHERI DOW,,
The outro cracks me up everytime :D

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT AREAS TO GO GET THIS STUFF?
If I was there I would have grabbed all the toys, washed them and donated them to pet shelters, children's hospitals, and toys for tots during Christmas :)

Nice scores!!

Good vídeo!!! ; )
why do you park so far away
Donate blankets and sheets to Animal shelters and rescue groups
That was asbestos wrapped around that heat duct. I hope it didn't bang around your van.
So you took a broken scale, and left the fan and car subwoofers? Man thats frustrating

why not go dumpster diving and sell it all at the flea market.live the dream.
I love your vidio and your style men
wow... that speaker box tho.....
Why leave the TV ?
that 110 volt electric mower(if it runs) is worth 30-50 instantly
at 15:48 you should have grabbed the target. it is a old and rareish nerf product.
You must love walking because you sure park some distance away at times.
living the dream
Should have took those subs quick Craig's list flip
Plastic cups for art paint projects!

You can take blankets to the animal rescue centers
Damn. You passed up the car audio sitting there. Looked like some nice subs.
nice video
hey can you please tilt your camera up a little bit then we can see what you are looking at, thank you
I edit the video where it faces down too much and delete that. Sadly the camera is pointed as high as it can possibly go for a chest mount. Thanks
Nicole Bideau that's part of the video also seeing his feet and hands just swinging in and out of frame.
I sell older and newer hospital beds really fast; and for good money. Hope you are not scrapping them. Put them on Craigslist or a local buy & sell site; $80. - $150. each.
Why do people call them "Hot Water Heaters" ??? Hot water doesn't need heating!
Happy birthday Shirl! Dave Stone pk
B.B.
Take us to the scrap yard when you sell scrap.
I would take those plastic hangers. I have seen you take wire ones. No good
Hey you have to start looking at Pinterest more to see the potencial of the things you leave behind! People would pay good money for the things you think are ruined...
Talk about stink lol my son shot a goose ,butchered it and left the rest in the hot sun:/. Felt sorry for the garbage man,had to give him extra in his Christmas card lol
Yeah some of those are collectibles pretty sure
3.20 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You meet the nicest people while you are out picking
Heave Hoooooo! ; )
Hey. Your videos are great. However, I noticed you cut the cord off of something. It always bugs me when people do that. A few times there were things we would have picked up to use but the cords were cut off, so the whole thing went to garbage instead of getting used. Oh well.

7.46 nice men.
Why does he cur cords off . Leave stufffor someone who could use it.

Why not donate books and stuff like all those cups to homeless shelters
Goodwill verses trash and the blankets to Human Society or what ever rescues they have where you live. They need blankets desperately so please don’t trash them if their good.
