Pricing Transparency

Mobile Home Demolition and Removal Cost in Knoxville, TN

Understanding mobile home demolition and removal cost depends on structure size, accessibility, foundation type, and attached features. Hiring a professional demolition company ensures your project is completed safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with Knoxville and East Tennessee regulations — helping you avoid unexpected delays or expenses.

Structure Size

Single-wide vs. double-wide — larger footprints take longer and require more hauling.

Tight lots, steep grades, or narrow lane access can affect approach and setup time.

Structural Condition

Fire or water damage, collapse risk, or severe deterioration may require additional safety measures.

Foundation Type

Concrete footers or block foundation removal adds scope and equipment time to the project.

Attached Structures

Decks, porches, carports, or storage sheds attached to the home add additional demolition scope.

Mobile home demolition requires precision, coordination, and full site cleanup. These reviews come directly from property owners who trusted Foothills Disposal to safely tear down and remove structures across East Tennessee.

Nick and his crew were awesome. From the moment I reached out, they were responsive and professional. He always showed up on time and did a great job removing an old pole barn in a tough-to-reach spot on our property. They were affordable and completed the work at the quoted price. I definitely recommend them and will use their services again in the future.

– Dustin F.

Nick with Foothills Disposal helped with a mobile home demolition for us. He was responsive and got the job completed, and all of the debris was removed as planned. The process went smoothly overall and he was straightforward to work with. Everything was handled as expected, and the site was fully cleared when finished. Appreciate the help getting it taken care of.

– Madeline C.

Nick handled a mobile home demolition for us and did a solid job. He was easy to work with and got the structure torn down and hauled off within the timeframe discussed. The site was cleaned up properly when finished. Communication was strong and everything went smoothly. I’d consider using Foothills Disposal again for similar demolition work.

– Joseph M.

We worked with Nick at Foothills Disposal on a mobile home demolition and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. He was professional, easy to communicate with, and handled the job exactly as promised. The crew stayed on schedule and made sure the entire mobile home was torn down and removed cleanly and efficiently. The site was left in great shape. Highly recommend.

– Aaron R.

We hired Foothills Disposal to remove an old shed at my 89-year-old mother’s property. The structure was close to falling down and damaging the neighbor’s fence. There was no easy way to get equipment in, so they completed the job by hand — very labor intensive. They were professional, kind, and extremely reasonably priced. I will always recommend them.

– Kimberly D.

Quick Answers

Get Your Free Estimate
1Do I need a permit to tear down a mobile home in Tennessee?
Yes, in most cases a demolition permit is required before removing a mobile or manufactured home in Knox County and surrounding East Tennessee areas. The process involves confirming ownership, ensuring utilities are properly disconnected, and submitting the necessary paperwork to local authorities. We handle Knox County permit coordination for our clients, making sure everything is approved and compliant before work begins so you avoid delays or penalties.
2How do you get rid of a mobile home?
Mobile home demolition is a full-service process that includes permit coordination, utility disconnection, safe structural dismantling, debris hauling, and final site cleanup. We use professional excavation equipment to safely break down the structure and remove all materials from the property. Our goal is to leave your lot clean, level, and ready for redevelopment, resale, or new construction without stress or hidden surprises.
3Can you remove a unit without axles or a tongue?
Yes, we regularly remove older mobile homes that no longer have axles, wheels, or a tow hitch. In these cases, the structure cannot be transported traditionally, so we use heavy equipment to dismantle it safely on-site. All materials are then loaded and hauled away for proper disposal or recycling. Non-towable units are very common in East Tennessee, and we are fully equipped to handle them efficiently.
4How long does the demolition process take?
Most mobile home demolition projects in the Knoxville area are completed within one to three days, depending on the size of the structure, foundation type, accessibility, and whether there are attached features like decks or sheds. Single-wide homes with good access are typically faster, while double-wide units or properties with concrete footers may require additional time for safe removal and cleanup.
5Do you recycle materials from the demolition?
Yes, we prioritize scrap metal recycling and responsible material separation whenever possible. Metal siding, framing components, and other recyclable materials are sorted and sent to recycling facilities instead of being sent directly to a landfill. Our eco-conscious approach helps reduce environmental impact while keeping East Tennessee properties clean and professionally cleared.
6How much does mobile home demolition cost in Knoxville?
The cost of mobile home demolition varies based on factors such as structure size, foundation type, accessibility, and attached structures. Single-wide units typically cost less than double-wide homes, while properties with tight access or extensive concrete foundations may increase labor and equipment needs. We provide clear, upfront written estimates with no hidden fees so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.
7Do you disconnect utilities before demolition?
Yes, proper utility disconnection is a critical safety step before demolition begins. We coordinate with local utility providers to ensure electricity, water, and sewer connections are safely terminated prior to removal. This protects both the property owner and our crew while ensuring the project complies with local regulations in Knox County and surrounding areas.
8What happens to the foundation after removal?
If the mobile home sits on block piers or concrete footers, we remove those as part of the demolition scope unless requested otherwise. After removal, we can grade and level the lot to prepare it for rebuilding, resale, or land redevelopment. Our goal is to leave your property build-ready and clean.
9Do you serve areas outside of Knoxville?
Yes, we provide mobile home demolition services throughout Knox County and surrounding East Tennessee counties including Blount and Loudon. If you are located nearby and unsure whether your property is within our service area, simply contact us and we will confirm availability.
