Vinyl Tiles -- that DO NOT contain Asbestos -- Removed from Margot's Room

I'd be dying to do some more demolition since learning that our vinyl tiles upstairs are NOT ACM.  So, I got to work last night in pulling the tiles out of Margot's room. Much to her chagrin, those pink tiles are gone.

The purpose of the late-night demolition was two-fold:  (1) after she goes to bed is the only time I can really do anything; and (2) if I did it last night, I could get all the tile into a trash can and have "regular" garbage service take it away.

So what looked like this, in the listing:

 and what looked like this after pulling up some carpet:

like this after removing all carpet and tack.


Now looks like this:



One room down and two more to go.  Too busy to do anything this weekend, so I hope that one night later this week, I can get the other two rooms cleared out of tile.  Then, I'll just have the carpeting in the main living room and dining room to pull and the kitchen tile to clear out.  The latter, I'll probably leave for the demo' crew as a lot will be underneath cabinets and I just don't have the time or skill to pull out cabinets by myself.
