Removing an old mobile home is a much quicker process than I ever imagined. Two men disassembled our old coach in one workday. They started by removing the carport and awnings. Next they separated the mobile home at the seam, then pulled the sections apart. This unit is a double wide so it was split straight down the middle. Each open side was sealed with a black plastic tarp and it stood in place for almost two more weeks.
I was anxious for this part of the process to be over. Our initial estimated move in date was pushed back months, and months, due to escrow hurdles and design time for the new mobile home order. So even though this process is speedy, I was beyond ready to see an empty lot. I drove by our new property twice a day to see if the old mobile home had been taken away but sadly, all was quiet. Just this separated unit stood waiting for a ride down to Mexico.
Until one morning – I ran into one of our new neighbors while dropping my daughter off at school. He very casusally mentioned that there were two large trucks parked in front of our property. I high tailed it out of kindergarten drop-off and was very lucky to witness what happened next!
