Yesterday wasn't the coldest day of the year, but it was pretty chilly. Of course, that was the day we decided to take our recycling to the junk yard. We learned our lesson and don't go on Saturday morning, because the line to get IN to the junk yard is at least 4 blocks long. It's at least 2 blocks long inside the junk yard, too. It's not a fast moving line.
We haven't been crushing the cans so we've got a large volume, but not much weight to the bags.
Up the conveyer the cans go. On to the scale. Then into a tractor trailer.
The junk yard is a little scary. Large equipment. Loud noises. Dirty...everything.
$60.20 was the total profit just for the aluminum cans. Not a bad profit for doing something we already planned to do. A small can crusher is on the list.
Ooooh, a little D & M action on the weekend! You are right everything there is scary, including the big burly men! LOL!
ReplyDeleteYES! I have never understood why everybody there is scary and crabby.
