How To Shed Your Shed

Your trusty backyard shed has been through the ringer since it was built 20+ years ago. Between the weather and the kids, you're not really sure how it is still standing. But you have decided it is finally time to move on, and you are ready to replace it with a sturdy and more modern model. You could make it a hefty DIY project, but without the proper knowledge, tools, and resources to dismantle and haul away the debris you could end up really hurting yourself. 


There are many factors that go into determining the cost to remove a storage shed from your property

Depending on the company you use, they could charge by the hour or by the square foot. 

Determining factors include:
>What condition the shed is in. 
>What materials the shed is made of.
>How easily accessible the shed is for the demolition as well as the haul away. 
>If the shed needs to be detached from a concrete slab.
>If there is any electrical wiring that needs to be disconnected.
>If your area requires any demolition permits.

A simple 10x7 shed could run you $500-$700 for the total demolition and haul away. That's without any hiccups.
So you can not do it by yourself, and the estimates you are getting just seem too outrageous. You do have a third option. Since you are replacing your old shed with a new one, go with a company like Stoltzfus Structures that has a trade-in program. You purchase your new shed from them, they remove your old one, and then install your new one.
