Free/throw away stuff

Recommended Posts

  A post popped up on my towns FB page for Free Stuff at the curb. I’m usually never around when this happens but it turns out I was just done mowing the front yard with the B-80 and when I saw the drawbars for a 2” receiver in a picture I figured I’d take a little drive.  
  I think I was the first to arrive! 
 Snagged two drawbars, one standard length and one longer one. A 12’ tow strap with steel hooks, some 12-2 and 10-3 romex. Check out what HD is getting for 15’ of 10-3 romex :wacko:.  AND nice two link chains that fit the rears on my WH’s! 
  Score!!

House next door is a rental. There is an endless parade of stuff put by the curb. Smokers, grills, fridges, fishing poles, kayaks. Now there's a dumpster in the drive way. The last time ( about 6 month's ago) someone moved out, they filled a dumpster in about an hour. These are mostly college kids that destroy everything in their path.

Who in their right mind throws copper wire away??? Nice to see the stuff go to a good home!

 

We stick stuff at the curb and it is usually gone that night. We have several flea marketeers in the hood and they like the free stuff.  

I just wish I could put the old WH stuff out there but the scrappers will be the ones picking it up. 

If I had more room on the trailer and truck I would bring it to the show, well, really not that ambitious. Boy if I do..... Ed better hold on to his buckets! lol

Actually they haven't been too bad. The family that owned the house before it became a rental was worse. Dozens of teenage boys hanging around reeking of cigarette smoke and body spray. All of that drifted into my garage. One of their kids was a thief. Broke into cars and the other neighbor's house. Actually that was comical because the lady was in the hospital and he was looking for drugs. He found her Life alert and pushed the button. The cops came with the ambulance! :hilarious:

 

Their other kid was in the process of setting fire to the house one day as I was just getting home from work! That was a hoot too! He was trying to put the fire out by peeing on it! :hilarious::hilarious:
