scrapper

A person who collects various discarded and unwanted precious metals (aluminum, steel, etc.) and takes said metals to a scrapyard where they are rewarded with a small monetary reward. Such rewards are determined by the type of metal and collective weight. Most often a scrapper does not have a steady/regular paycheck to count on so the scrapping they do is treated like a regular 9 to 5 occupation.

Nicholas knowledge base regarding different types of metals had grown exponentially since he began being a full-time scrapper two years ago. He had become a seasoned scrapper and could easily determine a metal's type by either sight, sound, or touch.

scrapper

One who collects scrap metal and cashes it in for cash!

Look at my friend Chris. He just scrapped 2 dryers and and a frigerator and made $45. What a SCRAPPER! He is helping the environment . Business is only good for a strong person. Must be able to load a 200 lb appliance by oneself. ie,, washing machine, oven, itc... Splitting rewards is tough on the pocket.
