Having just finished a new barn, I'm getting ready to have a new house built and need to have the old one torn down. I've already looked into having someone move the entire house, but because of the size, basement, brick, fireplace, etc. everyone is saying it would be impractical.
Any advice on whether it is work salvaging wire, copper pipes, etc. or is it better to just have someone come in with big equipment and just cart everything away as is?
Also, is there any savings or benefit of removing wooden porches, etc and burning versus paying to have hauled away?
Finally, anyone know if fire departments still have any interest in burning them down for practice? Again didn't know if that had any benefit in terms of a cheaper final demolition as there would be less to haul away.
Thanks!
