Mobile home demolition in Burgaw starts with the skirting and steps. We strip those first, then cut the body of the home down into sections we can load. The steel frame and axles come apart last and get loaded separately as scrap metal. Tie-downs and blocks holding the home to the ground get pulled as we go. We have handled this kind of teardown around Burgaw since 2013. Every home comes apart a little differently, depending on its additions and how it was set up.
A mobile home does not come down the same way as a house, shed or barn. Those jobs use different cuts and different equipment, and our work tearing down houses, sheds, barns and garages covers that side of things on its own page. Debris from a mobile home teardown gets loaded into the dump truck and hauled off as part of the job. If a customer wants the pile left on site instead, we can do that and haul it later.
A September 2026 Google review from a Holly Ridge customer reads: 'We hired him to clear our acre lot in Holly Ridge, demo and haul off an old single wide trailer, bring in fill dirt and make the cleared land look fantastic.' We take down mobile homes around Burgaw, Wilmington, Jacksonville and Holly Ridge, and across Pender, New Hanover, Onslow, Brunswick and Duplin counties. Scheduling is usually within days. The estimate is free and comes from looking at the property. Call (910) 512-9578 to get on the calendar.

The steps and skirting come off first, since they are the easiest pieces to pull free. From there we cut the body of the home down into sections small enough for the excavator and tracked skid steer to handle. The steel frame and axles come apart last. Those get set aside and loaded separately, since steel is worth more as clean scrap than mixed into the rest of the debris pile. Tie-downs get pulled as part of the same pass, along with the blocks underneath.
Debris from the teardown goes to a landfill that takes construction and demolition material. New Hanover County's landfill in Wilmington lists construction and demolition debris at $61.00 per ton on its published fee schedule. The frame, siding and roofing all go out this way, unless a customer wants a pile left on site instead. When a new home is coming in after the old one is gone, we clear the site and prep the pad so it is ready. A bigger regrade of the whole lot is lot grading and pad leveling done as its own job.
Pender County's Inspections and Permitting department issues demolition permits, and applications go through the county's online portal before work can start. Utilities normally have to be shut off and capped first. Separately, North Carolina's asbestos rules run through the Health Hazards Control Unit at NC DHHS. A demolition notice has to reach that office at least 10 working days before work begins, even when no asbestos turns up in the inspection. Full inspection is required by federal rule for commercial buildings and for residential buildings with more than four units.
For a single mobile home, the Health Hazards Control Unit still recommends that inspection be done before the teardown starts. We do not remove asbestos ourselves. That work goes to a separate, accredited asbestos contractor. Moving a home off its lot in one piece is a different matter from tearing it down. State law requires a tax permit from the county tax office before that kind of move, and the permit has to stay displayed on the home during the trip. That rule is written for relocating a home intact. For a teardown on site, the county demolition permit is the one to start with, and we ask the tax office what it needs so the home comes off the tax record.
Published cost data from Fixr puts mobile home demolition at about $2,000 to $6,000. That range covers pulling the home apart, loading the debris and hauling it to the landfill. Site access, additions and what happens to the pad afterward can all move the number within that range. We do not price a job over the phone. Published demolition cost numbers for houses across North Carolina cover the site-built side of that same question, for a standard house or outbuilding instead.
Once the trailer and its pad are gone, the ground underneath is often uneven or low. Fill dirt brought in and packed level closes that gap and levels the spot back out. That comes up often on flat, low ground near Burgaw, where a bare spot can hold water once the structure that used to sit on it is gone. We handle that fill work as part of the same job, or on its own if the teardown already happened.
From the first walk of the property to the last pass of the blade, here is exactly how it goes.

Great guy to work with. Demoed the trailer and made it all go away.
Absolutely love Steve and his excellent work ethic. We hired him to clear our acre lot in Holly Ridge, demo and haul off an old single wide trailer, bring in fill dirt and make the cleared land look fantastic. He went above and beyond what we expected. He was always on time, returned phone calls or text and he was fair with pricing.
Steve does a great job I’ve been using him for over a decade
