    Hello faust and welcome to SMF!

    What kind of equipment do you have to remove items? By this I mean, trucks and trailers and ways to cut the bigger equipment ''in the field'' so to speak? do you have a large trailer with a winch to load larger items onto? do you have a loader available to load these items onto your truck and trailer? How does your yard take these items? they may want them cut into smaller pieces.

    If it were me and it was my first time scrapping, I'd weigh my options - is this a job you can do yourself? Can you haul these items to the yard yourself? Maybe it would be easier to see if a yard would be willing to drop a container onto the property if you can't. You may take a hit in price but you would still be making money and cleaning up the yard. do you have access to a larger trailer if not? Lots of things to consider for this kind of job!!

    there are a lot of threads here that have described these types of jobs. Use the search feature to find some of them to get an idea.

    Is this your very first time scrapping?

    Scrapper, Scrap Yard Worker, Horse farm worker, Cooler Puller and just plain ''tired''
