    actually the guy at the yard cut it in two since he tought there was a lot of water still left in it . In one piece it weighed 233 , in two pieces it weight 226 . With one of them heavy duty gas powered saws used to cut concrete. Lots of noise no good but he did it by himself so I just watched

    We been going with them for about 6 years now , bring em a red bull or monster every once in a while . Boss is kinda my dads friend already , he has cameras where the scale is so . Yes indeed good service. Took about 20 min to peel the whole thing at the yard , it was all foam around it , insulation . Took care of with a knife and axe
