Hack it with a hacksaw, or saw it with a sawzall

Inverter with a sawzall would be the fastest if there's no electric available.

other option,a gas powered cutoff saw might be a little "sparky" around car gas tanks and overgrown weeds

about any tool you have to buy is going to cost you more then the trailer is worth.but it's a start. cut it into 3 ft pieces for the best price.

we have been using plasma cutters to demo ductwork at the powerplant, would work good on a trailer but i wouldnt buy one just for that project. 6" metabo angle grinder with cutoff wheels and a sawzall is what id go with on the trailer.

There are many shears Lite weight and also heavy duty that's what most yards use

Drag it on some dirt and use an oxy...

I used a sawzall and the Milwakee ax metal cutting blades they got dull fast and it got expensive. I found a grinder worked better. I have a 12" electric hand held cut-off saw with a metal cutting blade it cut faster that the hacksaw and the wheel lasted allmost the whole job. I was cutting up an old Chevy one ton pick up frame. I would recommend one of the 9" grinders with a metal cutting wheel. You can also use a no 77 skill saw with a metal cutting blade.

I used to own this tool. It kicked absolute butt! I sold it when I moved out of state. Wish I still had it now. If I get my hands on one again, I will not let it go.
