The Mobile Home Gone Team

How We Started

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.

About the Company

Mobile Home Gone is a program coordinator, not a demolition crew. We don't roll an in-house truck to your property — we run the title work, permitting, scheduling, and project oversight, and we contract the physical removal to a vetted local contractor who is licensed and insured in your state.

Every contractor on the network is checked before assignment: active state license, current general liability and workers' comp coverage, manufactured-housing demolition experience, and a clean licensing record with no open enforcement actions. We re-verify these annually. If a contractor's credentials lapse, they don't get assigned work until they're current.

That structure is deliberate. It lets us cover 28+ states with crews who already know the local permit office and the regional disposal facilities, instead of pretending we have a single national team. It also means the person you talk to at Mobile Home Gone is responsible for getting your project across the finish line — even though the boots on your property work for a separately-owned contracting company.
