A couple of months ago we purchased 40 acres. There are a few acres near the house & barn that we will need to clean up before they can be used for crop production. The issue is that the previous owner was a collector/hoarder. After he passed away, when his family was preparing the place to sell, they made a mess. Some of it was probably a mess beforehand, but there are instances in which you will come across a pile of nails spilled. There are also bigger things laying around, but those are easier to find and throw on the trailer to take to the scrapyard. What I’m worried about is all of the nails etc., that are hard to find. So what I’m wondering is if anyone has had any experience trying to clean something like this up. I can’t imagine how long if would take to try to use a metal detector to try to find them all. In the last couple of weeks, in addition to many other things, I’ve pulled 2 chisels, a centerpunch and 2 screwdrivers out of the weeds. Those would be pretty tough on tractor tires & I’m sure there’s more out there. It’s roughly a 4 acre area. Picture shows what it looked like before they sold off his tractors & engines. Does anyone have any recommendations?
