Deck, fence and small-structure teardown.
Ready to remove a standing deck, fence, shed or another small outdoor structure? JunkPDX reviews construction, supports, connections and access before agreeing on dismantling and debris hauling. Identify the parts that stay and the finished condition you need. Attached or elevated work and any specialist preparation receive separate assessment.
Local crew. Clear scope. Your approval before work.
More than a pickup
A removal plan that fits the property.
Start with the result you want: more usable space, a cleaner handover or room for the next improvement. We assess the structure and access, separate the work into clear steps and quote the approved removal scope.
Sheds & small structures
Construction, contents, connections and nearby structures shape the assessment. Decide whether the building goes or only the loose contents, and identify any floor, base or slab staying.
Dismantling, haul-away & handoff
Agree on dismantling, loading, disposal and practical cleanup together. Already-detached materials can receive a hauling-only estimate; dense concrete and unfamiliar material need individual review.
Define the result
Mark what stays, what goes and the space you need back.
Review the site
Check materials, utilities, access and any work that needs a qualified specialist.
Approve the scope
Agree on removal, disposal, exclusions, price and the order of work.
Clear & review
Complete the approved work and walk through the result together.
The people. The work. The result.
Wooden shed removed. Neighboring shed kept.
This old wooden shed was removed by the local crew. The neighboring storage shed stayed. A clear keep-and-remove plan makes that distinction part of the job from the beginning.

- House attachments, elevated areas and utility connections

Agree on the whole scope.
The approved scope states which components leave, which supports or bases remain and the cleanup included. Attached or elevated work, concrete, ground work, utility preparation and unfamiliar materials need individual assessment. Specialist work and site repairs are arranged separately when required; a review request does not confirm the removal schedule.
Before we get started
A few useful answers.
Can you review a standing deck or fence for removal?
Yes. Show the full structure, dimensions, materials, supports and access. We assess the proposed dismantling and hauling together before agreeing on the scope, complete price and work schedule. Attached or elevated areas receive separate review.
Is teardown different from detached debris pickup?
Yes. Teardown reviews a standing structure and the work needed to dismantle it before loading. Detached debris pickup reviews panels, boards and other pieces already removed. Use the guide matching the current condition so the estimate covers the work you need.
Can only part of a structure be removed?
A defined section can be assessed. Mark its boundaries, retained structures and any shared supports or connections. The approved scope establishes which parts leave and how the remaining area is handed over.
How is structure removal priced?
Construction, dimensions, dismantling labor, contents, access, weight and disposal affect the quote. The onsite removal estimate is free with no obligation. Approve the complete paid scope and work schedule before dismantling begins.
Do posts, footings or a slab automatically go too?
No. Identify each base or support and say what should remain. Concrete and ground work are reviewed individually and included only when expressly agreed. Practical cleanup and any separately arranged site work should be part of the handoff plan.

Fences, gazebos and pergolas: agree on the parts that remain
For a fence, mark each approved run, gate and endpoint, with approximate length, height and material. Settle authority and access for shared fencing before work. Show posts, concrete, wall attachments and nearby utilities without disturbing supports.
For a gazebo or pergola, show the roof, posts, panels, contents and connections to decks, buildings or fences. Identify the pad, floor, footings and neighboring structures that should remain. Attached or elevated work, concrete and excavation need assessment; utility preparation, repairs and the finished ground condition are agreed separately.
Installed flooring needs a different review from loose debris
List each room, approximate area, material, layers and known installation method: floating, nailed or glued. Mark the subfloor, trim and furnishings that stay. Share existing material reports; unknown flooring, backing and adhesives need review before disturbance. Specialist assessment and asbestos abatement require separate arrangements.
Agree on the layers exposed at handoff and whether furniture staging is included. Removal does not automatically include subfloor repairs, leveling, adhesive treatment or installation. For material already removed, request hauling rather than a tear-out scope.
Empty above-ground pools, frames and liners
An above-ground pool can be reviewed while assembled. List the liner, frame, ladder, hoses and disconnected equipment that should leave. It must be empty and disconnected for hauling; drainage, utility work and pool chemicals need separate arrangements.
The assessment covers supports, dismantling and backyard access. Decks, buried supports and ground repairs need specific agreement. In-ground pool demolition, excavation and backfilling are outside this pickup scope.
