I'd recommend a battery bandsaw, buy the bare body that matches your drill set so you can use your batteries, bosch, hilti or what ever...

Just a wee update for all. A reciprocating saw was purchased and a pack of 5 bosch blades for cutting metal. We managed to strip most of it out and get it cut into metre long tusks. Took around 45 mins to strip it out and cut it all. Definitely recommend the recip saw. Thanks to all the posters and the advice given. Am off to strip all the insulation now!!
