    The sound of demolition sounded like something out of a horror movie. Bones breaking.

    You will get decent money for the aluminum I got 100 bucks for the aluminum from the siding and windows from my 20 foot 1977 wilderness camper im turning into a trailer.

    Why did you shorten the trailer?

    the excavator should have sat on the opposite side and just pushed it all off.... alot faster

    Put a metal floor on it to stiff it up.

      That’s what I’m thinking!

      ‘TheMechanicDave’ understands....the trailer wobbled and undulated when you kicked it because it’s a newer (weight-saving) frame made poorly and with too little steel.
      - It won’t hold up to heavy use unless you strengthen it like the both of you were thinking.

    Any other way to knock down the walls without paying like 500 bucks to rent a bulldozer?

      Yep, lots and lots of elbow grease.
      Also: fyi, that's a mini excavator not a bulldozer 😁

      A good prybar, sawzall and an impact, i also found out a chainsaw with a semi junk blade eats thru the aluminum siding and wood frame like butter
