     Contact a local tower company and get a written estimate from them for
everything. It should include removal (probably with a crane), disposal of the
salvaged hardware, purchase of new antennas and appropriate hardware, assembly
of the antenna and installation of everything. A claim like this might run
$5,000-7,000.
