    You really need to install a protective net / screen between the driver seats and the compartment, in an accident or hard break, anything loose in there becomes flying missiles..

      That is what exactly happened to my friend, when he was rear ended on his return from the car boot sale. Merchandised shifted forward and hit his head and back. Chronic neck pain even after 6 years.

      Even small ones; there's a growing pile of E-waste at my workplace.
      Which, I'm glad to say, includes that hateful printer/scanner/copier combo that never worked right and had to be babied constantly. I make sure to give it a kick every time I'm passing.

  • @shaneyork300
    @shaneyork300 4 роки тому +2

    You said low grade boards are only a little more than scrap steel, I'm assuming you mean the clean pressing steel??
    I'm also assuming that they wouldn't let you put it with the clean pressing steel because of the contaminants of the fiber board and varies other things. Which just putting in with dirty steel would be more than half as much for the low grade boards.
    I'm sure you've considered the best options for yourself, and some times those change!!
    Nice cash flow after 3 trips to the Ewaste recycler!!
    Have a GREAT Day My Friend!!!

  • @sebastianmelmoth9100

    Wouldn’t it be easier to roll your tub into the van while at home, and drop it off with the material inside, and get an identical empty wheely bin in exchange from the recyclers? Then you wouldn’t have to do so much unloading. Also, what does the recycler do with the laptops? Just curious. Thanks.

    Recently you are not posting that many videos. People would love to see what you have been processing. Do you have e-waste processing factory in Australia or all the 1.5 tons gets exported? I know your buyer will take out few components from the heap for resale / reuse.

    Greetings Ben, Thanks for posting yet another fun Escrap Video, always enjoyable. BTW 2:20 he keeps the Batteries because Pound for Pound Lithium has a scarp value 4 times the price of lead-acid batteries do, nowadays get the right scrapyard buyer and you'll get more for the batteries then you will for the motherboard in terms of scrap value. Anyways Cheers Mate!

    I've got 3 buggered laptops sitting here, plus 3 buggered cursors. I don't write off the cursor exactly with every disfunctional laptop, but it just averaged out the same. I'm on to my 4th laptop since I got my landline Internet, getting close on 9 years ago. If the pile of crap I'm currently on makes it to at least late next year then its 2 and a half years per each laptop. The last 3 being all pawn shop acquisitions. All I need is the USB connect with each ' new ' rig then I'm basically back on the Internet. Just plug in the USB and its back up. Don't know about all that NBN wireless crap. I think I buggered that somewhere along the line. Not doing the service technician thing to get that re-sorted.
