When it comes to moving a newly built trailer home it's easy to find services that will move it to a location. And it's easy to find a contractor that will build an addition onto it.
But I've got the opposite problem and I can't find help with it. I have a family member who needs to replace an old trailer home with a new one, in the same spot as the old one. But the old one has REALLY good additions built onto it, one of them is pretty big. Plus a huge back porch, and a shed that covers the oil tank.There's even a whole second goddamn ROOF that was built on top of the real roof which is huge and heavy. Forget the additions, I haven't the foggiest friggin idea how the fuck I would safely peel the second roof off there without something either collapsing or falling and killing me.
But who do I even call about this? Before we even think of moving the trailer out we have to take the additions off, and then MOVE the additions (how?) and before then we have to take the heavy ass roof off the thing safely. Who would know how to go about this?
It's in the China area, so they'd have to service that area.

Many excavation contractors do demolition. Mobile homes are difficult to take apart by hand so it's good to salvage everything useable and then have an excavator crunch it.
Be clear with the contractor about removal of the metal frame and protecting existing utilities that are usable like a well, septic, etc. There will likely be some debris leftover so understanding how clean is clean-enough helps keep you happy as a customer.
