Buy an air hammer chisel and break up the concrete and remove from the ground.


That's a lot of work even if he has a compressor with enough CFM to run an air chisel. Go to home depot and rent an electric breaker (jackhammer) a small one that doesn't have to have a cart to move it will do the job.

I just broke up a walkway with one of these, 29lb. It will work, cost about $70 for the rental. Get the pointed chisel. Hauling the concrete is also a consideration. I’ve got a truck and just took it to the dump, just over a ton. It was a lot of work but the concrete was over 6 inches and I thought it was 3-4, but it’s doable and will be hard to find someone to do a job like this, as it’s small. Maybe break yourself and call a junk hauling company.

I’ve done it twice with a cheap Harbor Freight air Chisel and a Craftsman air compressor. 20 gallon tank. Using a spike chisel. Works great.
