From Dead Class A to Certificate of Destruction in 14 Days — What a $9,000 USA Federal Junk Removal Contract Actually Buys

What You Get for $9,000: The Full Dead Class A Motorhome Removal Package

A dead Class A motorhome removal from USA Federal Junk Removal costs $9,000 flat, locked and guaranteed. That price covers pickup from your property, EPA-compliant dismantling and destruction, a Certificate of Destruction (the legal proof your asset is gone forever), all title and lien paperwork, and the backing of $2 million in liability insurance. The entire process—from phone call to certificate in your hand—takes 14 days or less. No surprises, no add-ons, no "we'll see when we get there." You can finance the full amount in-house at roughly $150 per month over 60 months, zero interest, and lock that monthly right now at /get-it-gone or by calling 405-698-4285.

Since 1993, USA Federal Junk Removal has hauled dead motorhomes, boats, semi trucks, and mobile homes for Fortune 500 companies and landowners in all 50 states. The $9,000 contract is a turnkey solution: you hand over the keys (or the title), we handle everything else, and you get a paper trail that satisfies your insurance company, the DMV, and any lender with a lien.

What's Inside the $9,000 Contract (Line by Line)

Pickup and Transport We bring a heavy-duty rollback or lowboy trailer rated for Class A motorhomes up to 45 feet and 30,000 pounds. If your rig is sunk in mud, blocked by trees, or sitting on a slope, we handle the rigging and winching—no extra charge. The pickup window is scheduled within 7 business days of contract signature.

EPA-Compliant Dismantling Your motorhome goes to a licensed salvage facility where trained techs drain all fluids (engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant, propane, sewage) and remove hazardous components (batteries, Freon from the roof A/C, mercury switches). This is the step that keeps you legally clean—improper disposal can trigger EPA fines starting at $37,500 per violation. The $9,000 includes proper manifesting and disposal of every regulated material.

Certificate of Destruction Within 14 days of pickup, you receive a notarized Certificate of Destruction on official letterhead. This document states the VIN, make, model, year, and the date of destruction. It's your proof for the DMV (to cancel registration), your insurance company (to stop coverage), and any lender (to release a lien). Without this certificate, you can still be on the hook for property taxes, registration fees, and liability if someone dumps the hulk on public land.

Title and Lien Handling If you have the title, we process the transfer paperwork and submit it to your state DMV. If the title is lost, we pull a duplicate using a limited power of attorney (included in the contract). If there's a lien from a bank or credit union, we coordinate the lien release directly with the lender—most banks require the Certificate of Destruction before they'll sign off. This step alone can save you 4–6 weeks of phone tag.

$2 Million Liability Insurance Every pickup is covered by a commercial general liability policy and inland marine coverage. If our crew damages your driveway, your neighbor's fence, or a utility line during extraction, the claim goes through our carrier—not your homeowner's policy. You get a certificate of insurance (COI) with your name listed as additional insured the day you sign the contract.

Why 14 Days? The Real Timeline Breakdown

  • Days 1–3: Contract signed, payment arranged (financing approved same day for qualified buyers), pickup scheduled.
  • Days 4–7: Crew arrives, loads the motorhome, transports to the salvage facility.
  • Days 8–12: Dismantling, fluid disposal, scrap separation, VIN documentation.
  • Days 13–14: Certificate of Destruction notarized and delivered via email (PDF) and USPS (original).

Most tow companies and scrap yards will drag the process to 30–45 days because they're waiting on scrap metal prices or juggling a dozen other jobs. USA Federal runs a dedicated big-asset division—motorhomes, boats, and mobile homes are the core business, not a side hustle.

What Happens If You Try the Cheaper Route (And Why It Costs More)

The $1,500 Craigslist Tow Guy He'll load it, dump it at a scrapyard, hand you a handwritten receipt, and disappear. The scrapyard sells the aluminum siding and chassis but leaves the fiberglass shell, the propane tanks, and the black-water tank. Six months later, the EPA or your county solid waste department sends you a certified letter: the yard got busted, and your VIN is on the manifest. Now you're facing a cleanup bill and potential fines.

The "Free Removal" Charity Donation Scam Several outfits advertise free motorhome removal in exchange for a tax deduction. They take the rig, strip anything valuable (catalytic converter, generator, appliances), and abandon the shell on BLM land or a rural county road. You get no certificate, no proof of destruction—and when the VIN trace comes back, you're the last registered owner. One customer in Arizona got a $12,000 cleanup bill from the county after a "free removal" charity dumped his Class A in the desert.

The DIY Junkyard Drop-Off If you have a CDL, a heavy-duty truck, and a weekend, you can tow it yourself to a licensed dismantler. But most yards charge a "processing fee" of $800–$1,200 for motorhomes because of the EPA compliance work. You'll also pay for a temporary transport permit ($100–$300 depending on the state), and you're liable for any road damage or accidents during the tow. By the time you add up those costs, plus your time, you're at $2,000–$2,500—and you still don't have title handling or a guaranteed certificate.

How to Lock the $150/Month Rate Right Now

The $9,000 flat price is good for 90 days from quote date. In-house financing is available to qualified applicants with no credit check (we verify income and property ownership only). The payment is roughly $150 per month over 60 months, zero interest, no prepayment penalty. You can lock that monthly rate today at /get-it-gone by uploading three photos (front, side, VIN plate) and basic contact info. Approval takes less than 4 hours during business days.

If you'd rather talk it through, call 405-698-4285—the line is answered by a live dispatcher (not a call center), and you'll have a quote and a pickup date before you hang up. One customer review on Google: "Very professional and completed the job fast. From signing the contract to getting the Certificate of Destruction was exactly 12 days. The monthly payment made it painless."

What If Your Class A Is in a Tough Spot?

We've pulled motorhomes from:

  • Muddy fields (we bring timber mats and a winch truck)
  • Narrow driveways (we can disconnect the tow vehicle and hand-winch in sections)
  • HOA communities (we coordinate with management and schedule pickups during approved hours)
  • Behind locked gates (we'll meet you on-site or work with your property manager)
  • Burned or flood-damaged (we handle hazmat and structural instability)

The $9,000 rate assumes normal access (we can get a rollback or lowboy within 100 feet of the motorhome). If your situation requires a crane, a helicopter airlift, or a multi-day rigging job, we'll quote that separately—but 95% of Class A removals fall under the standard contract.

⚠Required notice
Licensing varies by city & state. We do not claim to be pre-licensed in every jurisdiction we appear to serve. Where local permits/credentials are required and we can't reasonably obtain them in time, we sub-contract a properly licensed local operator. Mobile homes, motorhomes, RVs & campers: Portland OR, Vancouver WA, and a growing list of cities now require certified asbestos testing before haul or demolition. If a sample comes back hot, abatement adds thousands in cost and unlicensed handling can carry up to one year in county jail. We do not haul around the law — we comply or we hand off.
