Yes, We Remove Decks
A lot of people assume deck removal is a separate thing from junk removal. It's not - at least not with us. We demo the deck, break it down, and haul all of it away in the same trip. Wood, composite, pressure-treated, attached railings, whatever you've got.
We get calls for deck removal in Dothan pretty regularly. Sometimes the deck is rotting. Sometimes the homeowner's selling and the inspector flagged it. Sometimes it just got old and nobody's using it anymore. All valid reasons.
Need this hauled? Call us now - we can usually get there same day. (334) 643-1176
How Much Does Deck Removal Cost in Dothan?
Honest answer: it depends on the size and what it's attached to. A small 10x12 pressure-treated deck typically runs $200–$300 for demo and full haul-away. A larger 16x24 or multi-level deck can run $350–$550.
What's included: we bring our own tools, we demo it ourselves, we load everything, and we haul it to disposal. You don't touch a thing. If there are concrete footings, we can remove those too - just let us know upfront so we can price it correctly.
What Happens to the Wood?
We sort at the facility. Untreated and clean wood sometimes goes to recycling or lumber yards. Pressure-treated goes to construction debris disposal - it can't go to regular landfills because of the chemical treatment. Either way, it's your problem to not deal with anymore.
Do You Need a Permit for Deck Removal in Dothan?
Generally no - demolition of an existing structure that wasn't permitted or that you're just tearing down typically doesn't require a permit in Houston County. But if you're tearing down a large attached structure near the foundation, you may want to verify with the city. We're not permit experts - that's your call. We just haul.
How Long Does It Take?
Most residential decks in Dothan take 2–4 hours from arrival to clean site. We've done some in less than 90 minutes when the demo is clean. Bigger decks with concrete footings can take half a day. We'll give you a time estimate on the call.
