Barn location: closest to us here in Byron, MI 48418, or a preferred professional.

Size excluding foundation: Large but not so tall we cannot reach the top.

Foundation height: Shorter foundations.

Age of barn:we are looking for older barns with hand-hewn beams and wide plank siding.

Structural condition: Safe enough to dismantle without falling and the less rot the better.

Structural framing species:Hand hewn can be any species. Milled oak or better preferred.

Shingle material: One layer tin preferred.

Siding material: Wide plank square edge preferred.

Siding color: Weathered gray preferred.

Silos: Sometimes we can burn inside the silos. Other times they are just in the way.

Burning allowed: Hopefully or we have to leave the pile or charge a lot to haul off.

Township: Rural townships are more lenient.

Electricity available: We need electricity unhooked from the barn.

Terrain around barn: Flat with no obstacles preferred.

Large bundle area: The more space the better.

Semi access: A semi truck needs to  be able to access the site.

Additional details: All these items including supply and demand are taken into consideration when determining whether a specific barn can be dismantled for free.
