RV Removal Services
RV removal hauls away motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels and pop-ups that no longer run or are not worth repairing. Title and access decide the job – a unit needs a clear tow path and, in most cases, a title in your name before it can legally leave the lot. Usable appliances and scrap metal are separated for recycling. The number is $50 per cubic yard, $150 minimum, and you get it in writing before the crew touches anything. Elephants Dumpster Rental & Junk Removal serves St. Petersburg and the surrounding Pinellas County area.

Efficient Rv Removal Services By Elephants Dumpster Rental & Junk Removal: Reclaim Your Space
Have the title and registration to hand; without a title in your name the unit generally cannot legally leave. The tow path matters just as much — low branches, soft ground and tight park roads decide whether it rolls out whole or has to be cut down on site. Appliances and scrap metal are separated for recycling. Elephants Dumpster Rental & Junk Removal covers St. Petersburg and the rest of Pinellas County.

RV Removal in St. Petersburg, FL
A dead motorhome, travel trailer, or camper parked beside the house is one of the hardest things in Florida to get rid of. Scrap yards do not want them because they are mostly fiberglass and wood, dealers will not take a non-running unit, and code enforcement tends to notice eventually. Elephants Dumpster Rental & Junk Removal handles RV removal and disposal across St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Pinellas Park, Seminole, and all of Pinellas County.
Florida is hard on recreational vehicles. Sun, humidity, and storms destroy roofs and seals, water gets in, and a unit that sat for three seasons is usually beyond economical repair – which is exactly when it becomes a permanent yard fixture.
Recreational Vehicles We Remove
- Travel trailers and bumper-pull campers
- Fifth wheels and toy haulers
- Class A, B, and C motorhomes, running or not
- Pop-up campers and hybrid trailers
- Truck campers and slide-in units
- Park models and destination trailers
- Utility, cargo, and horse trailers – strong scrap metal value
- Storm-damaged, flooded, and fire-damaged units (hurricane debris removal)
- Units with rotted floors, collapsed roofs, or missing axles
The requirements – stated honestly. We need proof of your legal right to dispose of the unit: a title, registration, or documented ownership. We cannot remove someone else’s RV. Before removal, fuel, engine oil, coolant, batteries, and propane tanks must be removed – we are not a hazardous waste hauler and cannot transport them. Black and gray water tanks must be emptied at a licensed dump station; we cannot haul sewage. And units built before 1981 may contain asbestos in some components, which requires licensed handling.
How RV Removal Works
1. Assessment and Paperwork Check
We look at the unit – length, condition, whether it rolls and steers, tire condition – and check access from the street. We confirm the title or ownership documentation and identify what still needs draining. Then you get a flat written quote.
2. Prep: Fluids, Propane, and Tanks
Fuel, oil, coolant, and batteries out; propane tanks disconnected and removed; waste tanks emptied at a licensed dump station. If none of that is done, we will tell you exactly where each item goes – the Pinellas County household hazardous waste facility takes residential quantities of fuel, oil, and batteries, and propane retailers take tanks.
3. Salvage What Has Value
An RV is worth far more in parts than whole. The steel frame and axles, aluminum siding, copper wiring, appliances, generator, air conditioners, and catalytic converter all carry recovery value that we credit against your cost. This is what makes RV removal affordable rather than punishing.
4. Haul Out and Clear
We tow, winch, or – for units that cannot be moved intact – cut down and remove in sections. Crews protect your driveway, lawn, gate posts, irrigation, and overhead lines. Metal goes to recycling; the fiberglass and wood shell is disposed of. We rake the spot clear and photograph it for code enforcement if needed.
What RV Removal Costs
RV removal is always quoted on site or from detailed photos. The range is wide because the variables are extreme.
The biggest factor is whether it can be towed. A trailer that rolls on inflated tires with a usable frame is the cheapest scenario – we hook up and go. A unit with flat or missing tires, seized axles, a rotted floor, or a collapsed roof must be winched or dismantled on site, and that is real labor.
Second is access. A trailer on a driveway with street access is simple. One backed into a fenced side yard, sunk into soft ground, with a tree grown over it, is not.
Third is material mix. Older aluminum-skinned units carry better scrap value than modern fiberglass ones, and that offsets your cost meaningfully.
Our quote covers labor, equipment, towing or dismantling, transport, disposal, and recycling, with salvage value credited back. It excludes fluid and propane disposal and any title services. If we quote it, that is the price.
Who Books RV Removal
Homeowners with a dead unit in the side yard are the most common callers – the repair estimate exceeded the value years ago and it has been sitting since. Property owners facing code enforcement hire us to resolve a citation before fines mount. Estate executors and heirs call after inheriting a camper nobody wants, often alongside an estate cleanout. RV parks, storage facilities, and campgrounds use us to clear abandoned units. Landlords book us when a tenant leaves one behind.
After hurricane season we remove a significant number of storm-destroyed RVs and park models across Pinellas County – flooded units in particular are almost never worth restoring.
Why Owners Call Elephants Dumpster Rental & Junk Removal
We are locally owned in Pinellas County and we handle RVs regularly rather than as an occasional exception. Crews are background-checked, uniformed, and fully insured, with a certificate of insurance available for RV parks, storage facilities, and HOAs. You get flat written pricing with salvage value credited back, protection for your driveway and landscaping, aggressive metal recycling, and honest guidance about titles, fluids, propane, and waste tanks rather than a company that hauls first and creates a problem for you later.

Our RV Removal Services Area: St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Tampa and Beyond
Think of our coverage as a triangle: St. Petersburg at the south end, Clearwater up the Gulf side, and Tampa across the bay. rv removal services inside that triangle gets the fastest turnaround, and every smaller Pinellas County city inside it is served the same way.
St. Petersburg, FL
St. Petersburg is home base, so rv removal services here usually gets the tightest window — often same day. We work Old Northeast, Historic Kenwood, Snell Isle, Shore Acres, Crescent Lake, Jungle Terrace, the EDGE District and downtown. The old bungalow blocks come with narrow driveways, brick streets and alley-only access, so we send the truck that actually fits instead of blocking your neighbors in. More on our St. Petersburg junk removal coverage.
Clearwater, FL
We are in Clearwater constantly. rv removal services covers Downtown Cleveland Street, Skycrest, Del Oro Groves, Countryside, Northwood and the barrier island. The Memorial Causeway backs up badly in season, so we schedule beach jobs early in the morning instead of promising a window we would blow. See the full Clearwater service page.
Tampa, FL
Tampa gets the same crews and the same equipment as our Pinellas work. rv removal services covers Hyde Park, SoHo, Palma Ceia, Ybor City, V.M. Ybor, Old Seminole Heights, Sulphur Springs, Town & Country and Brandon. The historic districts have the same problem St. Pete does — brick streets, tight alleys, 1920s bungalows — and we bring the right truck for it. Details on our Tampa coverage.
The Rest of Pinellas County
Between and around the big three we cover the whole county. Inland that means Largo, Pinellas Park, Seminole, Dunedin, Palm Harbor, Tarpon Springs, Safety Harbor, Oldsmar and East Lake. On the water we run St. Pete Beach, Treasure Island, Madeira Beach, Indian Rocks Beach, Indian Shores, Redington Beach, Redington Shores, North Redington Beach, Clearwater Beach and Tierra Verde. The smaller municipalities count too: Gulfport, Kenneth City, South Pasadena, Belleair, Belleair Beach, Belleair Bluffs and Belleair Shore. On the Tampa side we also work Westchase and the Gandy corridor. Full county detail is on the Pinellas County page.
Not sure whether your address is inside the line? Call 727-240-7033 and ask. We would rather tell you honestly that a job is outside our range than take a deposit and cancel on you.
RV Removal Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need the title to have my RV removed?
You need to show a legal right to dispose of it, typically a title, registration, or documented ownership. We cannot remove a unit belonging to someone else. If the paperwork is missing, tell us early so we can discuss your options.
Can you remove an RV that does not run or roll?
Yes. Units with flat or missing tires, seized axles, rotted floors, or collapsed roofs are winched out or dismantled on site and removed in sections. It costs more than towing a rolling unit, but it is entirely doable.
What has to be removed before you haul it?
Fuel, engine oil, coolant, and batteries must be out, propane tanks disconnected and removed, and black and gray water tanks emptied at a licensed dump station. We are not a hazardous waste hauler and cannot transport those materials.
Is my old RV worth anything?
In parts, often yes. The steel frame and axles, aluminum siding, copper wiring, appliances, generator, air conditioners, and catalytic converter carry recovery value that we credit against your cost. Older aluminum-skinned units are worth more than modern fiberglass ones.
Why will scrap yards not take my camper?
Because RVs are mostly fiberglass, wood, and insulation with relatively little recoverable metal by volume. Yards want dense metal, not a shell that has to be picked apart. That is exactly the work we do before the metal goes to recycling.
Can you get it out of my fenced side yard?
Usually yes. Units backed into tight side yards, sunk into soft ground, or overgrown require winching and sometimes on-site dismantling. We assess access during the walkthrough so the quote reflects the real difficulty.
I got a code enforcement notice. How fast can you come?
We prioritize code enforcement situations because fines accumulate. Tell us your compliance deadline when you call and we will schedule around it. We also photograph the cleared spot afterward, which owners frequently need for their case file.
Do you handle flooded or storm-damaged RVs?
Yes, and we remove many after hurricane season in Pinellas County. Flooded units are almost never worth restoring. Fluids, propane, and waste tanks still have to be handled properly first, and we will walk you through that.
Will you damage my driveway or lawn?
We take real care not to. Crews protect driveways, gate posts, irrigation heads, and landscaping when winching and towing. Heavy units on soft Florida ground require planning, and we discuss the approach with you before starting.
Is rv removal services available in Tampa or only in Pinellas County?
Both. Tampa gets the same crews, trucks and pricing structure as our Pinellas work. We book rv removal services in Downtown Tampa, Water Street, Harbour Island, Davis Islands, Bayshore, Beach Park, Old Seminole Heights, Tampa Heights, Town & Country and Brandon. Because Tampa sits in Hillsborough County, disposal runs through Hillsborough facilities, so we quote Tampa jobs with that tipping cost included rather than surprising you later.
Do you cover Clearwater Beach and the condo towers for rv removal services?
Yes, and we do it constantly. Clearwater Beach, Sand Key and Island Estates buildings almost always require an elevator reservation, a certificate of insurance naming the association, and a set haul window. We carry current insurance and file the COI before the truck leaves. Mainland Clearwater — Countryside, Northwood, Del Oro Groves, Downtown Cleveland Street — is simpler and usually books faster.
What other Pinellas County cities do you cover?
Effectively all of them. Mid-county we run Largo, Pinellas Park and Seminole. North county is Dunedin, Palm Harbor, Tarpon Springs, Safety Harbor, Oldsmar and East Lake. The barrier islands run St. Pete Beach, Treasure Island, Madeira Beach, Redington Beach, Redington Shores, North Redington Beach, Indian Shores, Indian Rocks Beach and Clearwater Beach. Smaller municipalities like Gulfport, Kenneth City, South Pasadena, Tierra Verde and the four Belleair towns are covered too.
