Ahhhhh....you mean a BullShihtz?
I saw this. They had bad owners. Not the dog's fault.
You will only need a couple of 22oz Estwing framing hammers and a couple of flat pry bars and a good shovel. You won't need any power tools to take this fence down.
At each post you will have the 2x4 rails that connect to the fence post. Use the hammer and pry bar to remove only the fence pickets that cover where the 2x4s are nailed to the post. Then knock out or pry off the 2x4 rails from the posts, leaving all the pickets attached to the 2x4s. The idea is to take the fence down in full 8' sections.
Then you just stack the sections neatly for disposal, either have them picked up by a garbage/salvage company or stack them in your truck/trailer to haul them off to the dump.
For the fence posts, you definitely don't want to cut them off with a chain saw at ground level, leaving the remainder of the post/concrete in the ground.
Get the shovel and dig around the fence post. If it's an old 4' fence, you can probably just push the post back and forth and pull the post with the concrete out of the ground at the same time. Since the posts are only 4', they probably put little/no concrete on them at all. Back fill the post holes with dirt and tamp it down and you are done.
Understood and agreed. No breed of dog has suffered at the hand of society like the American Bull Terrier.
@JasonSpear don't listen to these fools! Douse that wanna be fence in gas and light that SOB on fire! Just make sure you have your smores kit ready.
My plan is a solid plan. You get the "fence" removed, unleash the inner pyro, and enjoy some smores. What more could you possibly ask for?
The blazing inferno might deter moles, too. Idk. To be sure, you should get some dynamite.
Other than the fact the guy gave you bad advice that you are considering taking, along with the fact that your free local Wilson County landfill will not accept your fence material - you seem to have a solid handle on this project, Jason.
Ahhh...nothing like some C4 for a firework show. He could even dress up in some type of military attire and call it a re-enactment of something.
Nothing beats a mil stick for demolition
1500 lbs of c-4 detonated at once will take care of that fence and the over-pressure will solve any mole, snake or rodent problem you may have

See how many sticks that BC&TSK used that time and don't use quite that much.
You didn't say they wouldn't accept it...Wilson County dot gov says they won't accept it. "No construction or remodeling waste allowed (drywall, lumber, brick, blocks, rocks, dirt or roofing shingles)"
I know you live in Wilson County, because...that's where Mt. Juliet is...in Wilson County.

Let the Latinos handle it for you. Don't be hardheaded.
In Jason's case, 30 year old 4' tall 4x4 posts are the essence of simplicity to remove and then back fill with dirt.
"cut them off at ground level"

Jason, I would appreciate it if you would take this fence project a little more seriously, like I am.
Just gotta be sure to give them a $1.50 for all of their hard work.
Delegation, I like that. It shows you are the driver of this project and not afraid to lead.
The people that run the landfill are probably still looking for him.
Careful with that...they have a tendency to throw the clipping all over the landscaping/house/vehicles. I'm assuming it's due to the language barrier.
You need to calm down. He is trying to help you, not take over your life.
7k...please dear GOD tell me you have a huge backyard, or you went with the vinyl?
Honestly dude, spend a bit more and do the vinyl...worst decision I ever made was using wood instead of the vinyl. The maintenance and weather do a number on the fence and your wallet in the long run.
That would be the wrong crew to hire. The crew that does our property take their clippings with them.
Because I want you to be happy Jason, and I want what's best for you.
This is exhausting.
If you pull the posts, doesn't that mean less post digging?
I bet Cujo has already called Wilson co and informed them of Jason's illegal plan.

You had better make it an 8 footer, or you will regret it.
Yea, but those mf'ers can pull em for not that much more work.
Now I'm worried. Oh my. This fence is going to ruin hitlers birthday for me. I'll draw up some sketches or something.

Adam Bannach is a man who has been inside another man.
I'm saying those fence folks are gonna dig new holes and set the posts in cement. Seems like they could dig out the old posts and set the new posts where the old ones were, killing two birds with one stone, kinda. Somebody is digging holes. Might as well dig a hole that will extract the old and fit the new...
Now maybe there are structural reasons you cant do that. Idk. Probably leave you with more hole to fill/concrete.

Let me know when your fence is done so I can come piss on it. I am officially done worrying about your problems.
Anybody think Cal is upset that Lee is leaving? MJ seems to think Cal would be pissed that Lee did this without his blessing, and talked to Goodman. I'm pretty sure Cal dgas, and, if he had it his way, he probably wishes Lee left after his freshman year.

And Adam Bannach is now aware of your illegal bonfire plans! Thanks for sharing, Jason! You are such an amateur criminal.
