Do you know when that machine was made? Does it have a GE/General Electric CNC controller on it? What drives are in it? You might be better off selling that instead of scrapping it as it will take a lot of work to dismantle. It must have some serious steel between that turret head above and the bed below into which it drives the punches. You are going to need a scrap torch to reduce that machine to easily moved chunks and I doubt they will let you do that there. There is a rigger in South Bend that loaded a 23,000 lb lathe for me. They had a 30,000 lb forklift with a boom and there were fairly reasonable. They do work in Chicago. Selling big stuff like that is not much different than smaller machines, except that moving them around requires a rigger with the right equipment. If you had it dropped onto skates at your warehouse you could push it around with a small forklift. Did the machine come with any tooling?
