Using a skid steer to clear some land, yank down some trees and demolish a mobile home! Owner plans to eventually add to his storage facility and wanted this mess to disappear so he can start fresh in spring.
Hope you like the video, it was a tough one to film. No place to charge a phone or go-pro, long hrs, cold, working between power lines and inches from a brand new fence. I was more focused on doing things carefully. But filmed what I could! Like and subscribe for future content.
Tools used: chainsaws, safety straps, chains, Kubota Skid 65 SVL2, large breaker bar, flat bucket, grapple bucket, brush cutter, dumpsters, flatbed trailer, rescue straps

You made allot of extra work for yourself by spreading that debris field so large, grab some and go straight into the dumpster right by the trailer. But you really are a hard worker and I commend you and your work young man. Hard work pays off and you sure make that apparent!

@jasongrinnell1986 10 месяцев назад

I had a trailer disposed of and the guy did it pretty much the same way. He later told me it best to rip it apart, crunch it into manageable piles. It was easier to load and no wasted space in the dumpster.

I like how you went inside home with the drone. That was awesome

@rollingops 8 месяцев назад

That was a fun shot to try!

@chadjelliston5652 Год назад

That drone footage at the start of the inside was pretty cool.

Thanks!

Keep it up!! nice to see you making use of the skid steer!!

It's getting some hrs in for sure!

@THYKAER 10 месяцев назад

Tilt the machine to the side, and clean it with the pressure washer let the water run out the door, keep the mats in, raise it up on the blade and bucket, to clean the undercarrige. You can run the belts While you do this... regards from the rental guy in Denmark

If you had to do another mobile home demo would you still use the skid steer over a mini extractor? Ive seen people use both and was wondering what was your take on this?

@rollingops 4 месяца назад

It depends on the area. I didn't mind the skid at all. But I was also doing some land clearing so it just made sense to do it with just one machine. But if I was in a mobile home park, mini all day. Def what I would use

@ResidentialContracting 4 месяца назад

@@rollingops thanks for the reply. Would a 1 or 2 ton excavator do the job? Just thinking about the tight spaces in mobile home parks.

@millerman2311 9 месяцев назад

Im starting up a business in Indiana and would like some advice on how to bid these types of jobs or any jobs really. Do you charge per day to operate your machine? Do you charge hourly? Just would like some mentorship if you’re willing?

@rollingops 9 месяцев назад

I def calculate my expenses to dump, my equipment costs, and what I want to make based on the effort. There isn't an exact scientific way everytime.

It has been a long time since I have seen a mobile home outside of a trailer park. Around here that would be considered a luxury home because it has a yard. Sad to imagine someone lived in that disaster at one time. As for cutting trees look into getting a skid steer pole saw, those are super handy. Then again if money was not an obstacle a wood chipper is a great accessory, not sure if the rental market there would be good for one. Looks like you were able to store your machine on site instead of having to haul it back and forth.

@tomcat5986 Год назад

I'm curious what a project like this would cost to bid out. Also, did you add to the amount the dump fees by the ton? I appreciate it. Keep up the great content. New subscriber!

@rollingops Год назад

Yea , I definitely made sure to calculate emplyee time, and dump fees, along with fuel.

@darwindropmazda 4 месяца назад

@Logancarnes95 Год назад

what did you charge? or will nobody say what they charge like it really matters

@rollingops Год назад

Triggggerrred. It's been a while man, but I think the demo and land clearing was roughly $6-7k

@Logancarnes95 Год назад

@@rollingops not triggered my friend, everyone leaves out the total cost. i typed this because several people asked you the cost and you answered their other questions but didnt give the price. too many people beat around the bush

Did you cut the utilities prior to starting on the demo? Did you cut them yourself?

No, they had been cut long ago. Verified with the owner as well

@@rollingops you got lucky. I have to get permits to demo trailers and the power company is always the one I’m waiting on lol.

@RiverValleyAcres yep, in the city we deal with that. But this was in the middle of nowhere. No permits to really pull. Just a little due diligence

Was that with the friends and family discount? Feel like you could charge more for a typical customer.@@rollingops

@jeffpulkrabek6018 Год назад

Great video. Did you buy this property? That first junk pile is a full load. I'd haul that out in evening and return with that dumpster emptied and ready for that mobile home removal.

@rollingops Год назад

No but I know the guy who does. We actually loaded the next day because the dump closest and cheapest was in the opposite direction of the return home.

Hey what’d you do for advertising starting out? Google or Facebook? I really want to do these kinds of projects but I gotta find the leads.

@rollingops Год назад

Google my business, getting as many reviews as possible. On FB I do not pay for ads. I just post everything we do like a story - "selling without selling" people want to be part of the brand. Check out my fb to see what I mean

How many acres of brush did you have to clear?

@rollingops 9 месяцев назад

At this job...only a few I believe

@lonestarcollectiblezcom2602 11 месяцев назад

Hey Clayton, would like to know how you go about charging on a job like this, because you've got so much going on, several people working on site, a great deal, if not all of your gear tied up for several days on this site and don't need an exact amount but was this like a $5k-$6k deal for you possibly? Thanks, really enjoy the hustle and sharing your battle plan to handle this!

@rollingops 11 месяцев назад

If memory serves me right, this was just between a $6-7k job! It was a learning experience as well. I loved this one, and hope to do many more like it next year!

@jasongrinnell1986 10 месяцев назад

I think you did good. I had a double wide hauled off and was charged $9,500. No tree work. But you know a happy customer equals more business down the road.

@Sugarkryptonite Год назад

HI man loving your vids. I was just curious about one thing, you start a dumpster business, and it's going well and you have one dump in your town you can bring and dump your dumpsters at. Let's say one day that dump closes or stops taking stuff from smaller guys like you and I, are you screwed? What's your plan B? In my area, I would need to drive another hour just to dump at another place, which worries me, putting all my eggs in one basket sort of thing.

@zachbabich2087 Год назад

How many yards did that end up being

@rollingops Год назад

I believe 80 yards for everything trash. Not including brush. And 20 yards of metal

What length is that trailer

@rollingops 9 месяцев назад

14 ft. Depends on the model. But legally, we can haul about 5-6 tons with this trailer.

@locotacos9773 Год назад

Be alot easier if you had demolition bucket for the skid , makes a be difference on clean up job

They were all out of those at Walmart! Ha yes. Those would be nice. But I love the grapple because it reduces dirt and mud in the dumpster

Next time have your dumpster guy drop the container closer to the trailer so the debris field isn't so big! Haha! JK, nice work. Fun project and looks a lot cleaner. More storage units to come in the future?
