Pop Up Camper Removal in Minnesota: where we work and what we see

We serve 357 cities and towns in Minnesota, from Minneapolis, Saint Paul and Rochester to the small towns in between, across the Twin Cities, the North Shore, the Iron Range, Central Minnesota and Southern Minnesota.

RVs and campers in Minnesota sit in driveways, storage lots, and acreage across the Twin Cities, the North Shore and the Iron Range. Titles go through Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services, and we walk you through the release when there is no title.

Ice-out in spring is boat season, and the first cold snap in fall is when cabins get cleared and campers get pulled before the snow.

What we handle

Pop Up Camper Removal in Minnesota: what we take

The short version: if it fits the description below, we take it. The long version is on the phone with whoever answers.

  1. 01

    Tent and pop-up campers

    Every brand and vintage of tent camper, from the seventies to last year.

  2. 02

    A-frame and hybrid campers

    Hard-sided A-frames and hybrid trailers with fold-out bunks.

How it works

How pop up camper removal works in Minnesota

Here is how a pop up camper removal job in Minnesota runs from the first call to the last sweep.

  1. 01

    Photos first

    A couple of photos of the camper and where it sits is enough to set up the on-site estimate.

  2. 02

    Secure the roof

    Seized roofs are strapped, collapsed roofs are secured so nothing shifts in transport.

  3. 03

    Tow or load

    Hitch and tow if the tires hold air, winch onto the flatbed if they do not.

  4. 04

    Recycle

    Aluminum frame and steel chassis to scrap, canvas and interior to the transfer station.

Why now

Why Minnesota stops putting it off

Most pop up camper removal calls from Minnesota come after months of "we'll deal with it." Here is why the people who called last week were glad they did.

  • Mold in a closed pop-up spreads to the garage next to it.
  • A camper in the side yard is the first thing a home inspector photographs.
  • It is never getting fixed, and you know it.
  • Ice-out in spring is boat season, and the first cold snap in fall is when cabins get cleared and campers get pulled before the snow.

Straight talk

What pop up camper removal does not include

Two things every pop up camper removal customer should know before booking anyone, including us:

  • Pop-ups with propane or a battery still installed are removed after those are disconnected.
  • We remove the camper. We do not sell or part out campers as a business.

Sound familiar?

Common pop up camper removal situations in Minnesota

Every pop up camper removal call from Minnesota starts with a story, and most of them sound like one of these.

  1. 01

    The roof that will not lift

    The cable snapped, the roof is half up, and it has been that way since the last trip.

  2. 02

    Rotted canvas and mice

    It was closed up damp and now it smells like a problem. Nobody is sleeping in it again.

  3. 03

    The side-yard fixture

    Parked between the fence and the house so long the weeds grew through the tongue.

  4. 04

    Estate or move

    It came with the house, or it is not coming to the next one.

Afterward

Where pop up camper removal material from Minnesota ends up

"Where does it go?" is the right question to ask any removal company. This is our answer for Minnesota.

  1. 01

    Propane and batteries first

    Tanks and batteries come off before transport and go to the right facilities.

  2. 02

    Appliances and fixtures

    Refrigerators, generators, water heaters, and furniture are pulled for reuse or recycling.

  3. 03

    Aluminum and steel

    Siding, frames, and chassis are scrapped. This is most of an RV by weight.

  4. 04

    What is left

    Wood, foam, and interior finishes go to a licensed facility. Nothing is dumped.

Before we arrive

How to prepare for pop up camper removal in Minnesota

A few minutes before the crew arrives in Minnesota saves an hour on site. None of it is heavy lifting.

  • Remove propane bottles and the battery if there is one.
  • Pull anything you want to keep from the storage compartments.
  • Tell us if the roof is stuck up or down so we bring straps for it.

Equipment

What pop up camper removal in Minnesota takes

The reason this job gets turned down by other companies is usually equipment. This is what we bring to Minnesota.

  1. 01

    Tow rig

    For units that roll: hitch, tow, done.

  2. 02

    Flatbed and winch

    For units that do not roll: seized brakes, flat tires, missing wheels, or a rotted floor.

  3. 03

    Dollies and driveway protection

    Skates for dead axles, plywood for soft ground, and a spotter for tight gates.

Choosing a company

What to ask any pop up camper removal company

Ask us these. Ask the other companies too. The answers separate a licensed removal company from an unlicensed one.

  1. 01

    Tow or flatbed?

    A company that only tows cannot move a unit with seized brakes or flat, dry-rotted tires. Ask what they bring for a non-rolling RV.

  2. 02

    Do they handle release paperwork?

    No-title RVs need a state release. Ask if they have done one in your state.

  3. 03

    Will they protect the driveway and gate?

    Plywood, dollies, and a spotter. Ask how they get a 30-foot unit out of a tight lot.

  4. 04

    What about propane and batteries?

    Both need to be out before transport. A good company mentions it before you do.

Questions

Pop Up Camper Removal in Minnesota: your questions

The lift mechanism is stuck open. Is that a problem?

No. We strap it down or load it as-is onto a flatbed.

Do I need a title for a pop-up?

Requirements vary by state. Many treat small campers as trailers with simpler paperwork. We confirm before pickup.

Do you offer same-day pop up camper removal in Minnesota?

Same-day pop up camper removal in Minnesota depends on that day's schedule. We keep windows open for urgent calls, and next-day is almost always available.

Are you licensed and insured for pop up camper removal in Minnesota?

Yes. Lucky Hauling carries general liability and auto coverage for every job in Minnesota. Ask the office for a certificate of insurance and we will email it before the crew arrives.

Which areas near Minnesota do you cover?

All of the Minnesota area, including Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Rochester and Duluth. If you are outside that, we still probably cover you; check the Minnesota page for the full city list.

How do I set up pop up camper removal in Minnesota?

Send a few photos through the estimate form or by text. We confirm what we can take and set up the free on-site estimate, and nothing is loaded until you say yes.

Do I need to be home for pop up camper removal in Minnesota?

Only for the estimate, and even that can happen by phone or text with photos from the crew. Property managers and out-of-town owners do it this way every week.

What should I do before the crew gets to Minnesota?

Very little. Decide what stays, point it out or tape it, and clear a path if it is easy. Remove propane and disconnect the battery if you can. The crew does the rest.

Can you get it out of a tight spot in Minnesota?

Usually. Extended winch lines, dollies, and plywood for soft ground handle most tight gates and overgrown lots. Send a photo of the path out and we tell you before the day.

What if the weather is bad on the day?

Rain does not stop most jobs. Lightning, ice, and high wind do, especially for boat lifts and tow work. If we have to move your window we tell you as early as we can and reschedule at no charge.

The RV has no title. Is that a problem in Minnesota?

Usually not. Untitled and abandoned units in Minnesota go through Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services. We walk you through the release form so the unit can legally leave the property, and we handle the rest.
