Old Commercial Boiler

I own a warehouse and have two huge old boilers. They are big suckers. Any ideas for scrapping them? Was thinking about craning and flat bedding them whole if my local yard would accept them.

Are the boilers empty? How big would you say they are. If there are any brass sell it separately. I have dealt with big pipe before I have gone to Home depot and rented a concrete saw to cut up so they would fit my 18 ft trailer. Good Luck

Boiler is 100M BTU! I'd say 15' tall x 15' wide x 20' deep

There are actually two of them. Tried to upload pictures but size limitation won't allow.

Not sure if they're empty, you mean water? Curious if they actually have sections like my boiler at home would. If it does they must be huge....

100MBTU, dang. You will have a hard time without some type of support crew. Do you have some other people to help you out?

Is there a pro around that might do it and give you a percentage? That may be the way to go.

Correction, one is 16Mbtu/hr and the other is 10Mbtu/hr NOT 100Mbtu!!

Yes I think the best way would be to hire someone to come in and see if I can agree to a % of the weight. Even if it's cut out for free it's still a good deal for me because they're out of my way. But quick maths tells me that if these things weigh in at 60 tons each (which may be light) that equates approx $14,400 at $240/ton

Wow. If you intend to do everything completely legit, the nasty oil sludge left over in the bottom of these will prob. have to be scraped out and taken to a place accepting hazmat, that I know.
Hopefully you can find someone here on the forum w/ torches to help you with this job!
Would you be able to pull these right out the door of the building(s) they are in, or must they be disassembled inside? Do you own equipment to lift pieces off? Is the ceiling of the building suitable for rigging overhead blocks that one could run a cable through from a winch?

there are a couple huge barn style doors that the boilers could be taken out of, but not craned since there's a roof above. They'd have to be "pulled" out first before a crane could get to them. I don't have any proper equipment for this job. The roof above is NOT suitable for rigging. They must have backed these things into the building somehow and then set them down.

I think I can open these doors, and then start cutting out a section at a time. But I'm going to hire someone to do it. I'm wondering if these have asbestos? One is a water tube boiler and the other is a fire tube boiler. I'm not sure how the inside of these things look.

I took quite a few commercial boilers out. Easier to cut them up in place. Not sure if your able to truck a 15' load due to permitting. I had a demo company before did mostly mechanical demo for a Pa. based company (Worth & Co.). It's a lot of work to cut them up, not sure of you'll be able to find a company to take them out for just the price of metal.
Also beware of possible asbestos.
