How to you remove an outhouse?

Question

I just bought a house and there is still an outhouse and that has been in use in the past few years. I would like to remove the outhouse and fill in the area. Is there anything special I should do to make sure that its filled in completely and won't seep up or smell?

Answer 1

Does it have a ground floor and an upper level,? if so, you have to remove the ground level first, then on to the 2nd story.

Be careful doing so.

Answer 2

Remove the out house in the normal fashion and put lime down the hole before filling with sand/dirt.

Answer 3

Very carefully!

Seriously ... assuming there's still a fairly big hole, just fill it in with soil.  Nothing will seep up or smell.  If it's nearly full, that's a different problem.  I imagine a septic tank cleaning company could advise you if that's the case.  

Answer 4

Smash it to pieces,burn it to the ground,trample it with a bulldozer anything as long as its removed.
