to answer a few questions:

The vault is located in the tampa, florida area.

The total weight of the vault, with door was 46,000 lbs per the trucking company that moved it. The entire vault will fit on 1 flatbed trailer load.

(see: http://www.vaultstructures.com/concrete.php)

I was told by the folks that left the vault behind that the new cost was on the order of 60k$ about 5 years ago.

I surely appreciate that this endevour will be a hard sell, but surely SOMEONE out there wouldnt mind saving 50 grand or so

The company that made the vault was willing to cut up the panels and cart them away in exchange for the door, so now that I have done the hard work of properly removing the vault, perhaps the pile of concrete has some value now.

again any suggestions would be welcome!
