Hot tub and spa removal in east DFW
Old hot tubs drained, cut into pieces when needed, carried out of the backyard, and hauled away.

- By appointment
A hot tub that is no longer used becomes a big, heavy problem in the backyard. Most full-size spas weigh several hundred pounds empty, will not fit through a side gate in one piece, and are not something a city bulk pickup will take.
We handle the heavy part. Once the tub is drained and the power is disconnected by an electrician, we cut it down into pieces that fit through the gate, carry it out, and haul it away along with the steps and cover. We clean up the debris left on the pad.

What affects the cost
- Size of the tub. A two-person spa and a large swim spa are very different jobs.
- Access. Gate width, steps, slopes, and the distance to the driveway change the labor.
- Cutting. Tubs that must be cut down take more time and tools.
- Setting. Tubs built into a deck or enclosure take extra work to free up.
- Extras. Covers, steps, and surrounding debris added to the load.
How to prepare
- Drain the tub completely a few days before the visit.
- Have an electrician disconnect the power and make the wiring safe (we do not do electrical work).
- Measure the tub and the narrowest gate or path.
- Send photos of the tub, the path, and the gate.
- Put pets inside and unlock gates.
- Remove chemicals, filters, and supplies stored near the tub.
What we do not take on this job
- Electrical disconnect or wiring (licensed electrician only)
- In-ground spas or pools
- Concrete pads and footings
- Spa chemicals and pool chemicals
Plus everything on our not-accepted list below.
Texas and DFW notes
Electrical disconnect
Hot tubs run on dedicated circuits. Disconnecting one is electrical work for a licensed electrician. We do not do it, but we can schedule around your electrician.
Fences and gates
Many east DFW backyards have privacy fences with narrow side gates. Most full-size tubs will not fit through whole, which is why cut-down removal is common. Removing a fence panel is sometimes an option; ask us.
What we cannot take
We do not haul hazardous waste. If any of these are in the load, set them aside and check your city's household hazardous waste program.
- Paint, stains, solvents, and thinners
- Household and garden chemicals, pesticides, and pool chemicals
- Gasoline, fuel, motor oil, and other automotive fluids
- Propane tanks and other pressurized cylinders
- Car and other lead-acid batteries
- Asbestos, or materials we suspect contain asbestos
- Medical waste, sharps, and medications
- Ammunition, fireworks, and explosives
- Refrigerators, freezers, and AC units, unless we confirm first that the refrigerant will be handled properly
Federal EPA rules (40 CFR 82.155) require the refrigerant in appliances like refrigerators, freezers, and window AC units to be recovered, or its recovery verified, before the unit is finally disposed of. That is why we confirm before taking them. This list is our company policy. Not sure about an item? Ask before the visit.
Common questions
Do you disconnect the power?
No. An electrician needs to disconnect the power and make the wiring safe before we arrive.
Do I need to drain it?
Yes. Please drain it completely a few days before the visit.
Will it fit through my gate?
Usually not whole. We cut it into sections that fit.
Do you remove the concrete pad?
No. We take the tub, cover, and steps and clean up on top of the pad.
Can you take the cover and steps?
Yes. Covers, steps, and surrounds are part of the job.
How do I get a price?
Send photos of the tub, gate, and path, plus measurements, through the contact page or by email.
