Fence Removal & Haul-Off
Old fences torn out, footings pulled, holes backfilled and everything hauled away, before your new fence, or just to open up the yard.
Overview
Removing a fence properly means more than knocking down boards. Old posts are usually set in concrete, and footings left in the ground get in the way of new posts, landscaping and future work. We pull the posts and footings, backfill the holes and haul everything off.
Most removal happens right before we install a new fence, so there's one crew, one schedule and no gap where your yard is open. We also remove fences as standalone jobs, when combining properties, opening up a yard, or clearing a line before landscaping.

Common questions
Is removal included with a new fence?
We quote it as a separate line so you can see it, and we schedule it the same day as installation when possible.
Do you remove the concrete footings?
Yes. Leaving old footings in the ground makes new post holes and landscaping harder.
Can you remove a fence on a shared line?
Yes, with agreement from both neighbors.
Do you haul away other debris?
We haul fence material. Other debris can be added to the quote.
