Scavenging at the C&D Landfill • 1997 – 2000, one full time employee with skid steer, • Started by scavenging reusables including doors, windows, fixtures, • Stored in tractor trailers with custom built roof over it, • Conducted two yard sales that ‘broke even’ used old mobile homes for more storage, • Donated materials to non-profits and schools after that, Built good network.
