I did this a couple years back. No one in my area would touch it, not even the ones recommended by the debris manager at the dump. I listed on Craigslist for free and got a few looks and one joker "my truck broke down, I just had surgery," etc... I didn't care too much because I just told everyone it would not be held for any reason.
Eventually I completed my other projects and took it apart with my sawzall. I was almost ready to start work on the frame and one of my neighbors said he was interested in the frame, by way of another neighbor, but by the time he got around to coming over in person, I had already started on that. Too bad, I wasn't going to wait and rush later, for any reason.
If you end up demolishing it yourself: Don't let the mess build up. make frequent trips to the dump. Separate metal, wood and plumbing because those will probably go in different areas.
I saved a couple windows, a sink and the main electrical components to use on another project. The AC/DC converter is probably sellable.
This is a good reason to buy tools! I added a sheet metal cutter to my collection. The frame required about 1/2 a dozen carbide blades for my sawzall. A cutoff wheel would probably have worked as well.
My trailer was about 28feet long. It took 7 work days to break down. I have summers off, so my only delay was weather and my wife and the neighbors didn't have to put up with the mess for too long.
Good luck!
