Browse Forums Building A New House 1 May 12, 2009 6:58 pm Hi all, Has anyone had any experience with advertising a timber frame home for removal in Adelaide? We have one that we are willing to give away but just would like someone to take it away (at their cost). I'm thinking of advertising in the Trading Post, but would like to know if others have had success with this before. Otherwise we will go straight to the demolition companies and bulldoze. Just seems a waste that way though. Any thoughts?

They ended up paying for things to be removed anyway. Time is money so you really need to work out if there is an actual saving for you. They had to pay rent & mortgage payments over 6-7 weeks when a demo comany could have done it within days. Plus the extra stress of it all. This is 100% true.
