Those chandeliers were beautiful ❤️ I'm glad you found the goodness instead of them going to the landfill. Recycle ♻️ Always!
I always think people are going to confront thub and then he goes "HI" and they end up giving him free scrap lmao
😂
Same lol.
Canadians are so nice ☺️🙂
He has a calming demeanor about him
Haha so true
LOOK at my boy, Thub coming up in the world!! 🌎 Love seeing you do work- 126 THOUSAND subs now.. freaking awesome- been rooting for you since basically day 1!
Wouldn’t be here without you bud, it’s a team sport 😁 appreciate your support!
I'm not sure about anyone else but I feel like all your videos are successful and very enjoyable to watch. Keep up the good work
Great you could still put out a video despite how busy you were!
I love all your videos! You could have the worst day ever and not really find anything and I'd still watch as you're very upbeat and very entertaining! Keep up the excellent works!!!
I've had a similar week, mega busy but lots of trips to see family who aren't doing well health wise. As my wife says, "Family first". She's right though ❤️👍
Great video man! I like how we got to see how the scrap yard works in Canada. Even your mundane days scrapping are still entertaining!
Keep up the good work

Great non-ferrous finds on the 2nd run...congrats!
When I do a demo or clean out job I just make a stack of the scrap metal close to the sidewalk or in the back of the business parking lot. Often next to the demo dumpster which I've filled up with drywall and insulation.
It invariably goes in two hours or less. I don't even have to bother posting it on the internet as free.
Best and most entertaining scrapper videos on youtube!
Just wanted to say thanks for these videos
Dude that "free metal take all" sounded like the scraper term for "all you can eat" 😂
Funny you check the balance on that card, cant tell you how many times ive found cards with $20, $30, $40 dollars on them
On the glass or crystal chandler, take off the tart drops and cords of beads. You can sell on the bay for good prices
We need more videos. Im into like the 3rd time now im watching over all your videos again 😆
I love a trundle day. Thanks for giving what you had, it's appreciated.
@0:17 - exactly how those cheap “helium steel” shelving units should be treated! 🤣
The man who gave you them copper pipes puts my hope in the friendly spirits of Canadian folks.
Awesome score!!!
Thanks for the fun. A fellow Canadian here.
17:56 best OMT you can buy
You should keep the tools for wieght scap yard take them as motors here or scrap metal
Sum days be good, sum days be great!, the sum at the end 'it all ads up' and as you say, left better than you found it!
Love watching thub top man of Canada scrap on matey
Enjoy your content watch all
Another banger from Mr thub
My grandmother takes table legs like that and makes candle holders out of them.
I thought the furniture feet was the coolest find.
Real life always takes precedence Thub, I am sure we will all be around to watch whatever your latest adventures are - certainly not expecting 100% awesome every single time!
It was a great day, happened you got time to relax. ❤️💙
I always enjoy the effort! Rest up and get back out there!
Love watching your videos buddy, even when you're "off", the videos are still top notch! Stay safe out there..... see you next video!
No worries, I stil love your dumpster diving videos
Sweet score sweet video
Let’s go thub great video as always ❤
Great video ❤❤❤
I enjoyed watching this video. I look forward to the next one.
The vertical head rail you found in the dumpster even if the outer channel is steel the tilt gear up the middle is extruded aluminum usually 6061
Enjoy your content Thub! I watch them all!
It was a great video. i watched it from start to finish.
Love the chandelier and lamp. Convection oven, maybe!😊
Love the hunt old boy.
"yeah when you pick up don't make mess"
what a nice individual, best response you could've hoped for haha
Very very nice video
Always love your stuff
£60 weigh in today for myself.
£50 non-ferroud and £10 steel etc.
S0 I've money to spend on my kids this weekend 👍
Do they not take power tools or towel bars as shred?
I had a good week for “non-ferrous”, I usually take that stuff in with a load of shred to go from ~ $25 up to $50 or so (USA) but I had enough to fill my trunk today, some condensers, a good bit of #2 insulated (over $1/pound RN), lots of aluminum breakage, and a small bucket of sealed units. Almost $80. Today alone paid my insurance for the month and left enough for lunch at Chick-Fil-A. 😃
(I have three points on my license, even just $65/month on a 20-YO Camry is too much!) 🤣😬🥴
Great video as always.
Some nice finds though
De feet were a great find! I bet de roomie can use some of those, and the MCM blah ones should be very sellable!
Hey Thub! Do you think you could do a video on breaking down a ceiling fan, if you haven't already, and seeing if it's worth more to scrap them as copper electrical motors or if they're worth cutting the copper out and selling separately? There's also quite a bit of aluminum on some and even a little brass on the fancier ones.
Love your channel and all is glory.... IV been scrapping for years now
enjoyed thanks
One of these days youre gonna have to live stream these shenanigans
When’s there a skip outside someone house. Just knock and ask if u can and there will be no mess left. Leave a card with them and they can tell a friend and so on. Just ask 👍👍
15:35 nice pun lol
I cannot believe I'm the thousandth like 🎉😂
Your yard doesn't buy zinc alu?
That’s what I thought too!
It pays as much as aluminum categories, plus it weighs more per volume compared to lighter cast aluminum!
You can sell the power tools as dirty aluminum instead of throwing it back into the bin
We call coolers Eskies in Australia. Please take that useless piece of information and disregard it immediately 😂
Will do! 🤣
Your actions at 7:10 is similar to what my wife calls my magpie moment. Just moving down the street picking up valuable aka shiny objects.
Hope you (left that first dumpster better than you found it) 😉
Great scores today buddy!! That big copper pipe was lush! Don't forget to send me that email if you still want to be involved in the charity calendar you messaged about, I've really got to get on and make the thing! 🙈😂
You leave the zinc/die cast??
My yards have a separate category for that comparable to aluminum.
Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Homeowner "Are you okay?"

thubprint: "Oh.. Um.. Uhh No, I'm having a stroke... I just decided to climb into your dumpster and have it. Thanks!"
I do not know how you intend to to sell the Benzomatic propane bottle, but since you should find one a month or more, may I suggest you get a valve which fits a 20 lb. bottle, and refill it for your yard or other sale.
A Candian video from 4 years ago showed those at retail are $9, and a refill on 20. lbs bottles runs $30, or $1.50/lb. Sell them all in a box at $5, and have a scale so men can see what weight they get and you can profit $3.50 each.
Green camping propane stove bottles are the same thing.
Refilling is a simple process, and the bottles are NOT made for one use, and all warnings on them pertain to proper use, and explosive potential.
Overall, this down day, I believe ran you about a $100 bill. Not bad on a not your best self assessment day. Thanks for the video.
Only Ludacris can say ludacris 😊.
Great vid. I wish the scales had a decimal. If you have 1.9 pounds of copper you are losing out on over $3. I try to weigh some of my stuff but it is just too time consuming. What say you thub?
Hey mate hope you are well 👍 ps I worry about what you're breathing in, in those bins maybe mask up and voiceover 🙂
Fyi you totally got away with it 😉
🥰ty!
I do scrapping for a living, and I have some wires that came off a house that i don’t understand, there silver? But a bit bigger than pencil lead is it worth stripping or not?
Ccertin rods knock the end off everything inside should come out
You still can scrap the cans because most cans are aluminum
I dont understand why you didnt take the grinder or the zinc alloy bathroom fixtures. recon would have taken the grinder as electric motor scrap .10 per lbs
You can't take aluminum-zink alloy?
I can and I have saved it up in the past, but I struggle with shop space as it is and I just have too much junk to make a corner for low value buckets right now. The zinc alloy bucket takes a long time to add up and it’s usually only $10 when full
Did you *THROW BACK* zamak? My dude. That is the easiest casting alloy on the planet. You can melt it in a stainless frying pan on an ordinary stove top. And it fills a mold beautifully, flows for days. You're better than this! Keep your diecast!
You'll take rebar but not cast aluminum drawer pulls???
They aren’t pure aluminium, they’re an alloy that goes in as dirty aluminium. After the time I’ve spent scrapping I’ve decided it’s not worth my saving up a special bin for it
So you pass on wires a pair of pliers @ 22:39 but you grab an expired card that has 1.52 on it 😮 what the actual freak ???? Sometimes you just blow my mind Thub.
Where you from ?? cause your money looked funny 😂😭
I’m up here in Canada!
that windshield looks like it's getting worse
Your poor windscreen sure has been through the wars Thub:)
That small aluminum thing you didn't know what it was is an extension of a spray gun, it screws onto the spray gun and the spray tip housing screws onto the other end. It gives you a little more extension spraying, It's probably made by graco, i use those.
You find speakers all the time why don't you have bunch around your truck
Take the cord and put the fein saw in the metal scrap!?????
I didn’t know until now what a fein saw was, but it he contractor who owned it and threw it in the trash probably found it didn’t work the way he needed it to
I really think you should wear a mask or respirator when you’re in those dusty dumpsters. Breathing in a lot of dust can damage your lungs.
Somebody needs a vacation ?
I kinda do… even my “vacation time” has just been full time parenting
Oh the agony of da feet! 🤣
God bless 🙏🏼🇺🇸🇨🇦✌🏼😎 MAGA
what the heck isn't dumpster diving illegal I would call the police if I say you doing that
Waste removal is a significant expense for a business
You left that sink box and stuff a mess for no reason other then lack of respect and been lazy
