Weight Of Brick Removal


I have never been hired to remove the brick from a house but I have to do it for an upcoming project. Does anybody know what the weight and volume aprox would be so that I can calculate costs to haul it off. Any info would be great.

P.S. Its just the brick and mortar no wood or other demo debris.
Thanks Matthew

Re: Weight Of Brick Removal


How old is the brick? Can you sell it for antique value?
