Since you can't lay it down where it is, can you possibly jack it up, put some runners under it, and drag it out to where there IS room to tip it over safely? If it's less than 8' in diameter, you could probably haul it on a flat-bed trailer quicker and easier than taking it apart. When we no longer needed them, we sold two grain bins, one about 24' in diameter. Companies that put these things up use jacks that bolt into the sides to elevate them so the next ring can be added to the bottom. Taking them down is simply the reverse procedure. If you can find three or four of those jacks, three men with power tools could take a bin the size you describe apart in about half a day.
