I'm looking a buying a parts camper. No title or registration. It's cheap and has some goodies that I need to finish up.
We live in a residential neighborhood on small lot and don't have room to keep this camper around for an extended period.
What's the best way of getting rid of what's left, after we pick it? Rip it down and scrap the metal?

What you're talking about is hours and hours of work (to take it all the way down). You might try to give it away for the frame but without a title, not so sure you can. It costs money to get rid of trailer carcasses.
Call around your county and check into re-cyclers, the dump and junk yards to see what to do. It kind of depends on how bad it is and if there's any use-ability to it. Chicken Coop? Dry storage?

If you intend on just taking parts, will you be taking down walls/ or just taking out the windows?
A good option is to put for free on Craigslist. There are alot of scrappers out there, and would gladly take the camper.. You can advertise it free for scrappers, or good broken down and used as a utility trailer.. The aluminum skin can also be scrapped. PREFERRED: There is ALWAYS someone out there who needs whatever it is you have, no matter what kind of camper you have.. Place an add on this site, or Craigslist in the camper section free for the camper.. Maybe another camper person will get it instead of a scrapper.. Always a good thing! Good Luck! What kind of camper is it??? What are you taking for parts? If you dont plan on using everything, throw whats left on eBay and buy some butyl tape or something else you need for your camper!!

Thank you both for your help! The owner is giving me the run around so I'm not getting it. It's most likely for the best!
