The empty safe that shattered dreams.

Today brings something new to the show: Brandi’s first time at the auction, all by herself y’all! Jarrod is not with her today to fight about the units bid on the units, so she’s going to have to put her big girl pants on and bring home the bacon. We’ll see how she fares, will she give Jarrod a break when she sees that it might be tougher than it looks from the passenger seat? Yeah, you’re right… definitely not. They’re at MINI U Storage in Santa Ana, CA… right near the really high end South Coast Plaza.. no not in Darrell’s terms, actual high end stores. We’ll see how this pans out… I know I don’t keep my Louis V. in my storage unit. MMMKkkkkaaayy. Read More

Another day, another garbage pile!

Today in the LBC, the storage foragers are checkin in on some old digs, and I mean old: there is one locker that hasn’t been touched in 20 years! All these peeps (except Barry of course) say their history in Long Beach, CA has never been good. They’re hoping today is the day that turns their tides. They start off with an old container unit that looks like it’s full of JUNK…bedroom furniture, appliances, garbage bags! And despite talkin mad crap on what’s in the locker, everybody is trying to throw in a bid on this unit just who whoever wins it is really going to pay. They drive this bad boy… (and I mean bad) up to $800! Darrell however has the last bid with $850, and he’s got a future in diggin through some trash! Read More

Tony Alva himself makes an appearance for a rare gem

Today the crew rolls in to Westminster, CA. In the past there’s been some huge units that turned out of this place. The crew rolls in ready to spend and “make today count.” The war of Dave Hester/Jarrod takes a break today as Dave follows a tip and heads to a different auction. Darrell and co. are excited that Dave’s not there to “drive the prices up” and he looks forward to getting some cheap crap today! Barry’s ready to bid too, as he takes one look at the first unit and says “live by the dirty mattress, die by the dirty mattress.” Seriously gross, dude. Read More

All the makings of a single programmer's studio apartment.

Today they hit the very planned community of Irvine, CA. As a pretty well-to-do city in Orange County, there could very well be a lot of high value items shacked up in them there storage units; parcels of gold just waiting to be mined. The usual suspects all come rolling in hoping to clean up on some defaulting suburbanite’s prized possessions. Barry just threw his daughter a big fat high dollar wedding so he already is looking to bring back some bucks. The first unit looks like a single dude packed up his studio apartment and put it all in this locker. Read More

Ahoy! Captain Barry sailing in!

Out in sunny Gardena, CA our auction hounds drive in for another bidding war. They “got a pocket full of cash and [they're] ready to play with the big cats…” as Jeff Jarred says. They’ve all got their sleeves rolled up, ready to buy them some stuff, y’all. Captain Barry rolls in on his fancy DecoLiner and is ready to go! What the hell is this thing anyway? Who knows, but it is shiny and awesome- “how many hookers can you fit in that thing anyway?” Brandi asks…Ahahahaa. But what treasure will they scavenge amongst the seas of garbage that fill the storage lockers in sunny So-Cal? Find out who is swimming in the goods and who drowns in the crap! Read More

They’ll be bidding on a commercial type unit, and the whole cast is on their way for a piece of the action. Read More
