About Our Hot Tub Removal & Disposal Service
A dead hot tub is one of the toughest things to get rid of — it is heavy, full of foam insulation, often wired to a 240-volt circuit, and far too big to move in one piece. We handle the whole removal: we drain any remaining water, safely disconnect the electrical, cut the shell and cabinet into manageable sections, and carry it all out of the yard. Backyard access, decks built around the tub, and tight side gates are routine for us. You are left with a clear pad and no sign the old spa was ever there.

Hot tub removal is priced as a heavy, labour-intensive job rather than by simple volume — it reflects the cutting, the crew size and the carry-out. Difficult access (over a deck, up a slope, through the house) can add to it, and we confirm the full price before we start.
Tight gates, decks built around the tub and sloped yards are all manageable — we cut the tub down to fit whatever path exists. The electrical should ideally be shut off at the panel before we arrive; we handle the final disconnect safely.
We separate the metal components for scrap recycling and dispose of the acrylic shell and foam responsibly.
