Rent an ATV with sked or trailer for a week to haul trash and junk out and haul construction materials in. Don't bury it.

I agree, never bury something unless it’s something that is easily biodegradable like wood or other things. Plus if you can fix up the trail, fill in the potholes with gravel and so on, you might be able to eventually drive your van up to the property and possible arrange for garbage pick up at the road end of your ‘driveway’

Also agree, and you want to steer clear of breaking any environmental laws that the Canadian government might hit you with. In the meantime, do what you can to make the trail as passable as possible so you can get your van in and out. Leaving it parked so far from your place could result in it being stolen. Otherwise, great video and I will follow along to see how you're doing.

A good razor knife will allow you to disect a mattress, couch, etc. down to simple parts. A lot of the parts you can burn.

You're going to want your bed elevated from the floor, especially when winter hits. Unless the crawl space has been insulated, the floor will be the coldest part of the house.

I don’t know what the regulations are in Canada for burning things! But, here in the USA we would salvage the cabinets and 2x4’s & then burn everything else instead of burying it! As for the mattresses if you burn them then all that will be left is the springs inside of them! Like others have mentioned beforehand your first priority should be getting access to the property! If you’re on a budget then you need to think outside of the box when it comes to junking everything that was left behind! It’s called repurposing stuff to get a different use out of things that will fulfill your tight budget! Try to salvage as much of the drywall that you can because that would be cumbersome to haul back into the cabin & that doesn’t burn! I look forward to following along with you and Dobby!

We have a cabin in the woods off grid so I understand the work involved. We’ve owned it since 2009. We started living in it 6 months of the year. In the winter we go every other weekend because the only access is by snowmobile. We run everything by solar, back up generator. We now have running water, RV pump 12 volt. Our water comes from our brook behind the cabin that we pump into a 300g tote. We also just got starlink, good to have for rainy days and emergencies. We also put a garden in with a small greenhouse a few years ago. I love your property, it’s going to be so much fun getting it where you want it to be. I look forward watching you future videos. Best of luck!

You've done a lot of work. My thought is you need to prioritze access. Get a dirt road done up at least so you can get the van up there so you can remove stuff to the local dump (if there is one) and bring in supplies.

I don’t know what your plans are, but it looks like you’ve tossed a lot of potentially useful stuff. Do you plan on opening a road access, otherwise that’s a major amount of hauling to bring in everything on your back. Are you going to live there permanently? How far is it to town?

I’m still working on the road access. There’s three possibilities - the road I’m currently walking, the deeds legal access(ends at the Brook and not towards or near any road, making it landlocked currently), and another washed out road the locals have told me many years back they used to get trucks in but ATVers I’ve talked to can’t seem to find it and I can’t find it by foot, but with fall season trails start showing themself a bit more with the dead branches and leaves falling. All three possibilities go through different peoples property lines but I need to assess all of the options once I find this other “road”. It’s a cabin that was part of a draft dodger settlement. Winter… we’ll see. One step at a time. Worst case pick back up in the spring. Reality is I just got here 6 weeks ago, only so much I can do. I have the van worst case which is why I haven’t sold it to get a more suitable vehicle.

Ok wow you cleared out that place like a mother. Don't know why you burning some of that stuff. Those two cabinets you took off the wall are built better than those shelves in bedroom. The wood chairs can be cleaned and painted. I DO NOT like the idea of burying all that stuff. There has to be a better way. Reuse as much as you can for indoors or outdoor uses for the future. Once you get a road to the cabin you can haul out all the junk to be properly junked. Of course I don't know where your at or how far you are from a township. You may have to leave all the junk for next year. Winter is closing in and you need to focus on fixing the cabin. I think you could learn a few things for another Canadian who took the same road you did to the east coast a year ago. His cabin was just like yours when he started. He has been very resourceful with what he has managed to do on a very limited budget. He still has a way to go but I think he will be able to live in it this winter. Please check out his channel...Slim Potatohead. He is a adventurer also.

I love that blue trunk. Absolutely love it - here in Europe we don't have everywhere boasting with those old steamer trunks and I just love them.. I love chests, cheast tables.. love them. you saying you want to make a planter out of it .. Also burying random trash in the land is ew. When you left the cabin at the end the first big puddle is it on your land ? There is leaning dead (?) tree in the frame with it, I would just make a band-aid bridge with the leaning tree. Also here we have these.. "duck boards" they are called in English. Two or three splitted trees or thick planks over few cross supports acting as legs - we have those going over wast swamps and wet lands. The first band aid bridge I mentioned earlier.. :)

Just make sure that if your getting a foot of snow drag every four inches or you will not be able to pull the spring!

I'm interested in your progress with this cabin; it should be an adventure. I am a little disappointed that you are just making a garbage dump, or will bury the junk that can't be burned. Is there no way to haul this stuff out, on an UTV with a trailer? PS, I think that red metal bunk bed frame (we had one for our son) would be a nice set of shelves for storage. Maybe not now, but down the road.
