Specialty
Old RV and travel trailer removal.
The camper that has not moved in six years, the travel trailer with flat tires and a soft floor, the motorhome that will not start. Hauled off whether or not it will roll.
The short version
RV & Travel Trailer Removal at a glance.
- What it is
- Removal of old RVs, campers, and travel trailers across coastal Georgia -- towed out whole where the unit will roll, handled on site where it will not.
- What’s included
- Travel trailers, fifth-wheels, pop-ups, truck campers, and non-running motorhomes
- Units that no longer roll, have soft floors, or have structural rot
- Abandoned units on lots and storage yards, once authority to dispose is confirmed
- Metal routed to a recycler; tires handled in their own stream
- A real number before anything moves, after photos or a free walkthrough
- How pricing works
- Priced after photos or a free walkthrough by whether the unit rolls, the access and ground conditions, the size, and whether it comes out whole. Units are not purchased and no scrap value is paid.
Part of our Light Demolition service
An old camper is one of the few things people own that is genuinely difficult to get rid of, and the reason is that it falls between every category. It is too big for a junk truck and too dead for a dealer. A scrapyard will take the metal but does not want the rest of it. A tow company will move it but has nowhere to take it. So it sits behind the shed, and every year it sits it becomes slightly harder to move than it was the year before.
What actually decides this job is not the length on the title. It is whether the thing will roll. A trailer with four inflated tires and a coupler that still works can be pulled out in one piece. A trailer sitting on flat or rotted tires, with a frame that has settled into the ground and a floor that has gone soft, is a different operation entirely — and the ones that have been sitting longest are almost always the second kind.
The second thing that decides it is authority. We need to know that whoever is hiring us has the right to dispose of the unit. Usually that is straightforward and it is your own trailer in your own yard. Where it gets complicated is a unit somebody else left on your property, a park or storage lot clearing an abandoned camper, or an estate where the title is somewhere in a box. We do not adjudicate that and we do not advise on it. Get it settled and the physical work is the easy part.
And it is worth saying plainly: we do not buy campers and we do not pay scrap value for them. There is real metal in one, but nothing close to what it costs to handle the rest of it. This is a removal service.

How we work
How we actually handle it.
The first thing we want is photographs — the unit, the tongue and coupler, the tires, and enough of the surroundings to see how it comes out. Those four pictures answer most of the questions. The tires answer the biggest one.
A unit that will roll gets pulled out whole, which is the fastest and cheapest version of this job for everybody. A unit that will not roll gets handled where it sits, and that means bringing the equipment to it rather than the other way around. What comes out of an RV once it is being taken apart is not one material — it is aluminum siding, a steel frame, appliances, cabinetry, plumbing fixtures, upholstery, insulation, and a roof membrane, and those do not all go the same direction.
Access is the thing that most often changes the number. Six years of sitting means whatever grew up around it grew up around it — a fence built past it, a tree that got large, a shed that went up next to it, soft ground that will not carry weight after rain. Tell us what is between the unit and the road when you send the pictures.
Three things have to come out before the unit does, and none of them are ours to haul: propane tanks, fuel, and batteries. Those are regulated material and they go through their own channels. It is not a difficult step, but it is not optional, and it is much better handled before we arrive than discovered when we get there.
Where the material goes depends on what it is. The metal — frame, siding, axles, appliance carcasses — has genuine recoverable value and goes to a metal recycler. The tires come off and go into their own stream; tires do not travel with a general load. The rest of it, the parts that are wood, insulation, membrane, and upholstery that has been sitting in coastal humidity for years, is disposal, and we are not going to describe that as anything else.
Pricing
How pricing works.
Campers price after a look rather than over the phone, because the category tells you almost nothing. Two identical thirty-foot trailers in the same neighborhood can be a straightforward tow-out and a two-day job depending entirely on the tires, the ground, and what is in the way.
What drives the number: whether it will roll, how far it is from something a truck can reach, what the ground will carry, the size of the unit, and whether it comes out whole or has to be handled where it sits. Length matters less than people expect. Access matters more.
You get a real number before anything moves, and it holds unless the scope does. Photographs are usually enough to get there; a walkthrough is free and settles the rest.
We do not buy the unit and we do not pay scrap value for it. The recoverable metal is real but it does not offset what the rest of the unit costs to handle, and pretending otherwise would just mean quoting you a number we would have to revise on site.

The honest exceptions
What we won’t take — for this item.
A short, honest list of edge cases we either won’t take or want to discuss before we show up. When in doubt, call us — we’ll walk through it before scheduling.
- Buying the unit or paying scrap value for it -- this is a removal service
- Anything where authority to dispose has not been settled; we do not adjudicate ownership and we do not advise on titles
- Propane tanks, fuel, and batteries -- those are regulated material and come out through their own channels before we handle the unit
- Units in the water, partially submerged, or requiring recovery equipment
- Any claim that the unit gets recycled rather than disposed of; the metal does, much of the rest does not
- Site remediation where something has been leaking into the ground beneath it
- Disconnecting live utility, septic, or electrical service the unit has been tied into -- that is a licensed trade first
