- 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!

I felt a little sad when that piece of copper missed the box, glad you picked it up again
I was worried too!
I kept looking to see if he grabbed it lol
Looks like he left the magnet in that trash can too but we shall see
That iron bench put a litle paint and you sold at least 250 💵 don't take it for scrap.. 🤘🏻 🤘🏻
I loved that bench. Wish I had one. 😊
As a kid, I moved 26 times in 12 years, then another 4 moves as an adult. Always thought I was pretty good at packing...then I watched Mike. Amazing what that man can get into a pickup bed!
You learn realfast how to be space efficient,packing unrealistic amounts of stuff in tooo small a space
But you don't smash your stuff when packing it to move.
that thing with the chain links on it is used for a pulverizing mill to smash up electronic boards so you can recover the metals
google says its a disposable chain for a Rustibus 2000, which is a heavy duty marine cleaning machine. spins those chains at high speeds to clean off metal decks/hatches/ect, gets rid of scale and power washes the surface at the same time
Mike the Scavenger- The Musical!!! 🎶 😊
YEHH MIKE IM SO GLAD YOU GOT 1 OF THEM ADAPTERS SO YOU CAN TELL IF YOUR ELECTRONICS WORK ON THE WAY INSTEAD OF WAITING UNTIL YOU GET HOME SO GOOD MAN MIKEY KEEP IT REAL BROTHER TAKE CARE AND PEACE
The thing with chains is a chain flail used to de root and clean pipes on a spinning water jet nozzle
I listened to America in elementary school when Mr. Borud brought in his record player to share with us. Flashback memory!
Omg the wood planter container. Do you know how many potatoes I could grow in that on the patios. I am big time gardener.Yard garden, patio garden, 2 small and 1 medium sized green houses. I grow enough vegetables to can and dehydrate for a year till next harvest . I can grow just about anything fresh in the house under grow lights, lettuce , microwgreens, cauliflower,radishes, peppers…….so easy to decrease your food budget with a little effort.
Wow Mikey, that America song min. 03:51 was one of my favorites back in the 70ties. Thanks for bringing back nice memories 😁
your positive attitude always cheers me up ...thanks for filling the scavenging void that some of us have ....i used to love doing this but my body doesnt let me it do much anymore...
It's not a bench it's a LOVE seat!!!
Was I hearing a Jim Croce tune? OperRAtor
21:08 that is a chain spinner for a basic ball mill to grind ore down to a powder.
Mike, that big TV, flashing like that is bad Capacitors in its power supply. Really easy fix about 5 bucks of electronic bits & solder.😊
Ohhhh my lort! Gimme that bench!! It will look stunning out in my garden 😍
Good haul. I'm glad you picked up those cases with the molded foam in them. Maybe someone can alter them for other purposes like camera equipment. Those cases are seriously expensive.
They work great for musical instruments too
It astounds me how much material and scrap is just thrown away. You deserve everything you get for all the hard graft.
most jobs require hard work.
Mike,plz don't sing, I love❤ it, don't worry aboutbreaking any copy rights ❤❤u. Moe😅
He sure does!
Lots of Brass this time, good score!
That mid evel looking thing is from what they call a hammer mill for crushing rocks and such .
Awesome street scraping and dumpster diving thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother
Good evening Mike. Another great evenings haul. Thanks for bringing us on your journey. Those metal garden bench & flowerpot holders would be lovely sanded down & resprayed. Nice for your garden or to sell.
Stay safe & Happy Easter 🐇🐰🍫🥚to you & the wife, also to all your viewers...Cheers from Ireland🥰🇮🇪🍀
One dumpster is all it takes! That and MTS radio! Nice monitors!
Dont skip the ads…it will add money for Mike!! We love you mike!!
If that tv is an LG smaller then the 55” tv then there’s a capacitor inside on the board closest to the outer edge that burned out cuz they used capacitors that are too small and burn up easily…I just unsoldered the small one and soldered in a new capacitor next size up and it’s been working for 3 years now without issue..
Mike you need to keep the shovel, for those loose nuts and bolts you find in the dumpsters when there’s a lot of them!!
The medieval looking thing is an Automatic tire chain for big trucks found on a lot of school buses and emergency vehicles in the Midwest
The metal thing with the chain,looks like automatic chains for a school bus. They drop down in front of the tires and sling the snow away. I have them on my bus in CA.
Didn't realise you were old enough to know that kind of music!
You speak very kindly. You greet people first and ask if I can have this. You thank him. Very interesting. I wish the people of the country I live in had such a culture.
I know,if even half the country was that way it'd be a wonderful place
@@keithkillion4245 ❤❤
Hey there Mike, you were saying that we were all in the dumpster with you. Now I beg to differ, if all your fans were in the dumpster with you, it would have to be one HUGE DUMPSTER !! 😁😁😁😁 Love you♥️♥️♥️🇬🇧🇨🇦
Well how about we call that Dumpster Washington DC, California or NY! Just so long as we don't have to go to one of them places/ States 😂😂😂
Mike looks like you have found some good stuff on the curb.❤❤ Somebody done you right by taking some of that stuff apart for you.😮😮😮

Mike you need to get a trailer. Imagine how much more you can carry. Love from Northeast Houston
I love the 2 identical pot stands you scored. If they where repainted they would sale no problem. Good score Mike. Hope all is well be safe brother. Peace
That bench would be worth some money if you had it sandblasted and repaint it.Great time as usual.🌟💫⭐️
Yes Sir!!!
👋👋👋👋👋hard working scavenger, GOD bless u n your fAmily🙏♥️🥰🙋
Lift gate fund!!❤❤❤❤
Mike the Scavenger, he helps to keep the world green for you and me🎶 🎶
I see scrape in dumpsters where I work and I always think I should save it for Mike!😂😂❤
Mike, FYI Most 110 outlets in vehicles are only rated between 125 and 150 watts and you should have your engine running
That TV might have been too much to power on and might have turned off your inverter
And a lot of 12v plugs only work with your key on accessorie
Check them out when home with known working items
Nowhere near that,15-20 amps max
@@keithkillion4245 I stand corrected
I meant to put watts
Betty is full, it was so fun to watch. Thanks mike😊😊😊
more fun in this vlog with mike the scavenger
Hey Mike! Hello from Big "D"!

Hi Mike Thank you for another video. I hope you and yours have a good week.
This was the most epic journey ever...until your next epic journey!
That one trash can was like playing human size genga.😂
YOU ARE the BEST
Take care of your back Mike! Lifting all those ovens and things.
Stock up on groceries and other things in case the stores get low on groceries
How are you today Mike! Have an awesome day and week ❤
Everybody let's send Mike $2 so he can get a lift gate put on his truck !
Yes! I worry about the heavy stuff he lifts and shouldn't be!!
Yes np sending now. Mike definitely needs all the heavy items he loads he back got to hurt ooch!!
How do we do that ?
Trash talk 🗣️ 😮😊😂
Mike needs a Buy me Coffee thingy or some way to send him money.
You are such an Animal a Scavenger even!🤪😝
The issue with a REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS was the fact that people did not negotiate the real estate agents commission fee. They simply paid any COMMISSION fee the on the application. Also, the real estate agents did not have to disclose that the real estate commission fee was negotiable. After I purchase my first home (when I was 21) I took a real estate class at our local university and I couldn't believe that was the fact and that was back in the 1990s. After that class and getting licensed in real estate, we purchased more properties built some homes and never ever paid a full commission rate again. Most people don't realize that when selling a home the majority of the closing cost that's not going towards a down payment on a new property is going to the real estate agent/broker/agency. Those fees equal tens of thousands of dollars per home sold or per property sold.
Really good to know this.
My realtor offered me a job. I did a better property analysis. After I shower her I asked. What am I paying you for. Then I told her to add her closing costs to my offer. LOL the sellers payed it 😅
Those cases would be nice to store your Pew pews and the accessories that go with them in for the range
Thanks for the singing Mark! That brightens my day.
Mike, this 120 volt plug in your truck is just good to power electronic equipment. It would not turn the motor on a vacuum. Actually I was surprised it powered the big tv! Do some testing and you’ll see for yourself. The plug has no amps, only 3.5 amps or 400 Watts which is not enough to make electrical motors go!
Hi love to your videos😅 from the uk
Great haul!
I love seeing you break dancing in those dumpsters. Thanks for taking us along.
25:10 good cases for camera equipment, pistols, custom tool kits. You can buy blank foam inserts that can be customized for whatever you want to store in the case.
Maybe you should invest in a buggy like the one Mr. Scrappity has.
Mr Scrappy is truly trashy have you looked at his place??
I love your videos Mr. Chatarrero!
That was a close one with that piece of copper. I was it fall and I was like, nooo Mike double back. Then you found it. 👍
those cases were a good find, make excellent handgun boxes
Thank you, keep working.
15:36 that's GRP Grating Panels. It's made from fibreglass we are using them in UK in construction sites to cover the holes on the slab floor temporary... to be safe till the plumbers and electricians cut them up to put the cables and pipes...
Thanks again for the upload mike I'm about 6 months behind on your vids been ill....looks like there's a binge of scavenger action coming .......jules in the uk w.mids scrappers
That new Ford door beep!!!
My dear Mike you are everything but a singer!! LOL When you sing I love it but not for the tone, your effort is so cute. Dixie in Oregon
I said medieval the same time you did dumpsta puncha...you even punched back hand AND an appliance😮😅❤
I’m glad you checked those cases “for S’s and G’s” 😂
Great episode!!!!!Keep um coming!!!See ya soon Mikey!!!!!
Wow 😮 nice job!!! Those boxes are great! Blessings and Peace ✝️❤️
