[QUOTE="simme, post: 1741033, member: 40418"] If you are breaking equipment, definitely time to rethink. If they are just in the way above ground, cut or shear them off as stated above and be done with it. Look at the economics - what is the cost of a new post vs your time and expense and equipment to remove a used post for reuse? If they have to be removed from the ground, water around the post, let it soak in for hours, push from side to side with skid steer to loosen and pull them out. If that does not work, dig or bore down beside the post as close as you can with whatever tools or equipment you have until you can pull them out. If I can't pull it out quickly with a loader, I cut or break it off and move on. [/QUOTE]
