    Good call. I have been overwhelmed on big clean-ups and there is a tendency to keep it moving. I have found many items can be broken down with some tenacity and observation. I almost gave up on a huge AC commercial radiator due to the steel cage around it, it was from the 50's and way overbuilt and set in to place w/ a crane. I got to looking at and realized it had regular welds attaching each section. I had no power on site...Demo-saw time! I rented one for $40,all day, got a 12 pack of HF 7" cutting wheels and started cutting next to every weld I saw. Well 4 hrs later the skeleton just fell away and I had 1500lbs of Cu/AL radiators! They were still too heavy to handle so the demo saw cut them into 150lb chunks. I was beat but the payday was oh so sweet!!
