    Alright so I got a few pics. A few things I forgot to mention:



    The conveyor crosses over a highway and a railroad track. I believe that I will need to obtain a permit to be able to remove the structure. I also assume that I will need a crane and a few trucks to haul this away. I will also need to find a place to store this conveyor while I can scrap the sides, floor, and beams. Do you think the profits from the scrap will be able to cover the demo and moving costs for this structure?

    From the pictures, I'll first say this is not quite the type of conveyor I'm looking for. Second, I'm in total agreement with everyone else. This is not a scrap job, this is construction demo job. Either the county or KDOT will have to agree to close the road, a crane will be needed, and on and on. There are times that the most profitable job is the job to either walk or run away from. This is one of those jobs. You will find another profitable job that will be safer, easier, and have less problems making money than this one. However, I'll have to give you props for even considering a job this size. So, keep looking!!
