Scrap Metal

Postby Dansedgli » January 15th, 2011, 2:14 pm

Does anyone know if you can get a place to come pick up things like an engine block?

I cbf putting it in the ute along with the engine crane so I can drop it off somewhere.

The scrap joint close to me used to be convenient but they moved to Dandenong. :cry:

Cant find anyone to come get it.

Does anyone know of a scrap joint that is open on a Sunday or has a bin out the front for some late night drop offs?
