Wendy House removal options?

[hj2k_x]

We have a large Wendy house (see photo) which we would like to no longer have.

In order of preference:

1 - would anyone pay to come and remove it?
2 - would anyone come and remove it for free (maybe a charity?)
3 - what would it cost to pay someone to come and remove it?

Inside, there are two "rooms", one bigger and one smaller, and a toilet with a basin and shower (which needs some tlc). It's a sturdy thing, so would take a fair bit of dismantling (I guess you could also hoist it over our garage in one piece with a large crane...).

We're in Cape Town.

All help much appreciated

What is the size of it? There is a small possibility that I might bite the hook of option 1

I would have taken option 2 .... but CT is just too far. That's a nice Wendy.

It's 2.7m to the peak of the roof from the bottom
2.4m wide
6.4m long

Other info: it has two doors to the outside. And one door to the bathroom inside. And two windows.

Ya it's a nice thing but we don't have the need for it and want to make the space a nice garden area instead.

If you break that down and remove it, you should get it for free.

It's very big job and there will be damage, especially looking at the condition of the wood etc.

No kids i assume ? (And one never assume). I've got too much garden space in need of some sort of building ontop.

Put it on gumtree as a giveaway. I'm sure someone will take it.

You could probably even get some money for it.

Ya. I guess I'd rather see it go to a forumite who can make good use of it, if I could choose. Not desperate to make a massive profit but if it is worth something then the cash would go towards some astro and garden things to put in its place (trees and pots and whatnot).

Shoo it is tempting but 6m is a bit too big for my space. And yeah bud as others have said at that size this is not insignificant to get it out in usable pieces.

Good luck

I think your only realistic option is to demolish it piece by piece and sell for scrap. You might get lucky and find someone who would be willing to demolish it for free for you in exchange for the scrap.

No worries. Thanks. Yeah, if our space was different, or even if it was located somewhere else, we might want to hang onto it. But where it is now, it's not really what we need.

Let me check if I can take it.

advertise on gumtree/facebook for like 1/3rd of what a new on costs. You will be surprised at how many people may be interested

But you'd be next in line

@backstreetboy did indeed, and his effective problem resolutions are spreading like wildfire across the forums! For example: https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/threads/lan-cable-got-stuck-in-my-laptop-port.1087407/post-25560077

It's a fabulous house, I wouldn't change anything if I were you, paint the walls and do it differently inside, but everything is fantastic!

Was discussed 15 months ago... probably long gone.
