Mobile home demolition in Reno

Dominic does mobile home demolition in Reno and across the Reno-Tahoe area, taking an old home apart and hauling every piece of it away. Text a photo to (775) 316-7470. Here the house itself goes on the truck. The walls, the roof, the floors and the cabinets all come down and get hauled off, along with whatever the last person left behind in the closets.

Maybe you own the land and want the lot open again. Maybe you're settling an estate and the old place has to go once the belongings are sorted, and the estate cleanout page covers that first step. Or you manage a unit that is past fixing. In any of those cases, nothing inside has to be cleared out first, since the leftovers ride out with the walls.

A whole home makes a bigger pile than any garage, and a handful of photos may not show all of it. This is a job where an in-person quote often makes sense before the price is set. Once the home is gone, the lot can still hold brush, old fencing or junk scattered around the yard, and land clearing picks up from there. Ask about both in the same text.

From the full list of what goes on the truck: outdoor structures and concrete.

What gets hauled away in a mobile home demolition?

All of it goes, the home and whatever is still inside. The pile is the walls and the roof, the floors with the old carpet still on them, the kitchen and bathroom cabinets, the doors, the windows and the metal that held it all together. Then come the leftovers. A recliner in the back bedroom, a fridge in the kitchen, boxes in the closets and a few paint cans under the sink all ride out on the same job.

Kitchen demolition or bathroom demolition takes out one room and leaves the house standing. Mobile home demolition leaves nothing standing. When the work is done, you're looking at the ground the home sat on, ready for whatever comes next.

How much does mobile home demolition cost in Reno?

The minimum is $80, and a whole home is priced by the space its pieces fill on the truck. Photos of the outside and every room are sometimes enough for Dominic to price it. When they aren't, he comes out for an in-person quote.

The quote takes in the loading, the hauling and the disposal. Dump fees are part of the price and never show up as a separate charge, which matters on a job this size. On a whole home, that covers every load the job takes.

The price he gives holds unless the job turns out bigger than the photo showed. So send pictures of everything that has to go, the back rooms and the yard included. The pricing guide explains how load size sets the price on any job.

Where does a torn-down mobile home end up?

It goes to a few places, sorted as the home comes apart. Anything still good enough for someone else, like a dresser or a kitchen table left inside, goes to Goodwill first. Metal from the home goes to a scrap yard, where it gets recycled. Old paint cans go to Greymar for disposal.

What's left after that is real trash. Broken drywall, insulation, torn carpet, rotted flooring and cabinets that won't survive another move go to the Carson City landfill or the Stead landfill. Sorting it this way keeps usable furniture and metal out of the landfill. If there's something in the home you want to keep or give away yourself, set it aside before the day.

How does a mobile home teardown get scheduled and done?

Once you approve the price, he sets a day and time and shows up inside a 30 minute to one hour arrival window. The home comes apart where it stands, so nothing has to be dragged out to the road first. Metal and anything still usable get pulled aside as it comes down, and the rest goes out one trailer load at a time.

He works with a helper, Jake. Before any work starts, he walks you through what's going to happen. When the last load is out, he cleans up the area and does a final walkthrough with you on the bare lot.

If you manage the unit for someone else, photos of the outside and every room are the place to start, and the price and the day get settled from there.

What won't be hauled off a mobile home job?

A few things stay behind. Asbestos is one, and if the home has it, he won't take it. Propane tanks are another, and that includes a tank sitting beside the home. Anything with bed bugs or pests stays put, and so does medical or biohazard waste.

An older home may have asbestos in it, so mention it when you send the pictures. The propane tank beside the home has to be dealt with before the day. Then the quote covers only what can go on the truck, and nobody learns on the day that part of the home has to wait.

Does it matter how far out the home sits?

Mostly it doesn't. He's based in Reno, in Washoe County, and drives up to 75 miles for a job, so a home well outside town still fits. Check the towns he works in around Reno and Tahoe before you text.

A home far out of town gets the same setup as one in Reno, a silver Ford pickup towing a black Texas Pride dump trailer, 16 feet by 7 feet with 4 foot sides. If the lot sits at the end of a long dirt road or behind a gate, say so when you text. Then the day you settle on can be planned around the drive.
