What's the dimensions? I would do a 40 yd dumpster to be safe and dump other debris you may have from other jobs. Will save you on dump fees bmbobbish734 said:

My question is what size dumpster do you think it will take to put this thing in. My guess is a 30 yrd. Any thoughts or things to consider.
How do you wanna take it apart..with a machine..or by hand.mbobbish734 said:Ok got a call today to demo a 2 car garage. It's wood sided and half falling down.

Leaving slab.griz said:Depending on the size of garage...40 yard dumpster
Make certain all utilities are disconnected.
Watch for any hazardous material left in the garage.
It will take you longer than you think.
Do you have to demo the slab & footings?
Watch the weight...check with your dumpster company on limits.
It's half falling down, so I figure a couple strategic cut and a chain to the van outta do it.JFMURFY said:How do you wanna take it apart..with a machine..or by hand.
Is there debris inside you have to dispose as well.
Convert all walls an the roof in cu yards..add 15% for fluff.
Make sure the down doesn't require a demo permit.
Might be cheaper to rent equipment and 4 guys in 4 hours.mbobbish734 said:Thanks everyone. And yes I need a permit, this ain't my first rodeo. My normal demo's are interior though. I'm getting more and more clients wanting exterior demos though. A month ago they wanted a home done, but I don't have the equipment for that . Just keep rolling with the punches. I figure a garage is a good starting point. It's gonna be all by hand, and I'm thinking 4 guys and one day?

So you're leaving the slab right? Be very careful if it's post tension slab.mbobbish734 said:Thanks everyone. And yes I need a permit, this ain't my first rodeo. My normal demo's are interior though.

No its for an agents own rental. They want to keep the slab so they can rebuild it one day.FremontREO said:The easiest way besides burning is sub it to someone who has the equipment. If its a property that will convey the slab and footings have to go and all depressions in ground filled and hopefully packed. Enough said![]()
And what do you mean?thanohano44 said:So you're leaving the slab right? Be very careful if it's post tension slab.
Yeah pull it over with the van, its halfway there anyway. Then 4 guys to chop it up and toss it.JFMURFY said:Thought you were pullin it over with your van...
If you don't have the right equipment yet, rent it.mbobbish734 said:Thanks everyone. And yes I need a permit, this ain't my first rodeo. My normal demo's are interior though.

I thought about that too, but the rental is a killer. It's about $400 per plus delivery plus dumpster. I want to be competitive on price. Just not sure.BigDaddyPin said:If you don't have the right equipment yet, rent it.
A mini excavator is good for small buildings, use the arm to tear into the structure and rip it apart, then use a skidsteer with grapple bucket to load into dumpster. 1 operator and a laborer should be able to do that job in a day.
Good luck!
