How about:
- brand new 1000' spool of 3/8" rope
- 5 and 10 ton chains
- power belt sander in excellent condition
- misc. tools, screwdrivers, pliers
- tree pruning shears
Then there's the items I won't stop for:
- dead raccoons, cats, dogs, ground hogs and rabbits
- couches and chairs
- ugly old ladies
