Donating or Scrapping camper
Hey all- I'm just looking into what options I have if I want to scrap my travel trailer. It's had some water damage (although it doesn't leak now) and has flooring and an awning that needs replace...

I'd dismantle them and put pieces in my trash dumpster each week and let the trash service haul it away. After a few weeks, it was completely gone. A camper may take longer, but it could be done!
This is certainly convenient but pretty wasteful of resources. If you take your appliance to a scrap yard, a facility that specializes in these cast-offs or give it away to a repairer. the appliance will be recycled back into the stream of goods. A landfill means it will all be buried and may lead to future problems.
The OP could sell the trailer and donate the monies to a charity of his choosing, there is no sense to break it all apart and feed it into a landfill.
