Excellent channel, I have enjoyed several videos so far...spot on! As the owner of a nationwide e-waste recycler, I can appreciate with first hand the experience the issues you are sharing with your viewers. For instance, we also struggled with pick-up service as well, mainly due to increasing costs in both labor and fuel. Driving 50 miles round trip for a pickup, pay a guy 4 hours wage, $40 in gas, wear and tear on box truck only to in the end grab a half dozen printers, some flat screen monitors and 4 Windows XP era machines has forced us to charge for pickups. $100 minimum, $2 per mile after the first 10 miles. As you mentioned on your phone call, there is always the free drop off option. We have a 24/7 dock for free electronics drop offs (no tube tvs!). When I come into work in the mornings there are often several computers, stereos and other odds and ends that will either be kept (for my growing personal collection), refurbished or recycled. .
I worked in one here in Brazil just like yours but it had 11 employees, and the actual team that do that job was like 5 people. One problem is the pickup service because the employees here had to work in 2 different jobs, the pickups and the scraping so it was really hard to conciliate that. And i started to go to college (here you work and study, it's very common), so i could not go to pick ups so i decided to leave because the others were looking to me as a privileged boy who could not do the hard work lol
I can't imagine how hard it must be to do the pickups in your country, because here we only worked in one state, and sometimes i would leave the company at 08:00 am and comeback 21:00 lol i hated that part of the job. But i was really talented and like it scraping, specially computers where i could dissamble like 120 in 9 hours of work or so. So sad they could not let me not go to pickups...
Good to see your business is doing well, looking forward to watching more videos to see how your business has grown over the last year. Good job my brother keep up and keep on.
I am glad that you enjoy them, thank you! I use a program called Acronis to erase them. I will probably incorporate this topic in one of my next videos because I specifically built a server with hotswap bays for this task.
As a kind of hobby I look for electronics in dumpsters and curbside stuff. Bummer is, where I live, tne property taxes went up, and so did the insurance. So I can't spend the extra $$ for parts to fix some things to try and resell them.
You got my sub for being real. Keeping on pushing bro!
I am taking an environmental ethics class and stumbled on your video and channel. Awesome stuff!

People buy broken systems. Tear it down and sell it per component.
@@cac0461 I have had some luck selling some things, but it's not steady. I prefer to sell whole systems, not just individual parts. Thank you
Do you guys happened to have an AMD RYZEN 5 5800X3D CPU laying around on your warehouse?
I’m looking for such CPU that has all the pins and that works
Who do you sell to and what types of e-waste items do they buy?
You are not stripping the electrics down and recycling them? You are just reselling parts
Do you accept mailed in items?
Is this a waste management company ?
So ur located in deer park long island
