Watch: Easy Way to Remove Fence Posts

Have you ever removed fence posts that had been in the ground for a while? Me too, and they can be amazingly stubborn.

This video shows how this guy uses his truck’s spare tire to help him pull up some fence posts, with a lot less work than digging them out or using a jack.

Before you watch, here’s a safety remark from the guy in the video:

Probably would be a good idea to lay a piece of carpet or tarp over the chain. However, there was rarely much force that needed to be applied. Any time there was, I backed away from the post. I did not install these posts. I just needed to remove them.

Enjoy.
