How much does barn removal cost?
On average, barn demolition costs $5,000-$6,000 for a 30 ft x 40 ft post-and-beam barn. This average cost includes mechanical demolition and debris disposal. However, the cost to tear down a barn depends on a number of factors:

- Amount of debris—non-salvageable and salvageable
- Location of the barn
- Who you hire
