We founded this program in 2019 in Texas after watching too many property owners get stuck with $15,000+ removal bills for homes they didn't want. Our salvage-funded model changed that.
Mobile Home Gone started in 2019 in central Texas. Our founder, James, was working demolition contracts when he noticed a pattern: landowners were paying $10,000–$25,000 to tear down mobile homes that contained thousands of dollars in salvageable material — copper wiring, steel framing, intact appliances, aluminum siding. The math didn't add up for the property owner.
So we built the model differently. We recover the salvage value ourselves, offset it against removal costs, and pass the savings to the property owner as a free removal. It's the same economics that make scrap metal yards and vehicle donation programs work — applied to manufactured housing.
By 2021 we had expanded to 10 states. Today we coordinate removals in 28+ states with a vetted network of licensed local contractors. Every project is assessed individually because not every home qualifies — but for those that do, qualifying property owners pay nothing.
Founder & Operations Director
James founded Mobile Home Gone in 2019 after more than a decade working in Texas demolition contracting and rural land development. He built our salvage-funded model after watching property owners get priced out of legitimate removals. He oversees all program operations, contractor vetting, and market expansion.
Permitting & Title Coordinator
Maria joined in 2020 to manage the permitting and title side of the business — the part most removal companies get wrong. She has navigated the permit process in more than 30 states and specializes in complex title situations including probate, lost titles, and multi-party ownership disputes.
Contractor Relations & Field Operations
Derek manages our contractor network — vetting every crew for active licensure, insurance, and on-site performance before they're assigned any project. He coordinates field logistics for active removals and handles escalations when site conditions don't go as planned.
