SHED REMOVAL IN COLORADO SPRINGS
We take it down.
We haul it away.
Shed removal is all we do. Wood, metal or resin, falling apart or still standing, we take your Colorado Springs shed apart and leave the space clean.
- Taking the shed apart: roof, walls, doors and floor
- The stuff inside, if you want it gone too
- Loading, haul-away and disposal, with metal and clean wood recycled where it’s accepted
- The slab, gravel pad or footings, if you want them out
- Sweeping and raking the spot clean
We check what Colorado Springs requires for your shed before any work starts, and any power to the shed must be disconnected by a licensed electrician before removal day. The local rules are below.

PERMITS & DIY DISPOSAL
Doing it yourself, or just checking the rules?
Here’s what Colorado Springs asks for before a shed comes down, what city pickup will take, and where you can drop off the debris yourself.
Colorado Springs rules at a glance
Demolition permit
Yes for most sheds: PPRBD requires a $30 wrecking permit to remove a whole structure. Its exemption for on-grade sheds of 200 sq ft or less is written for building, so call 719-327-2880.
PPRBD wrecking permit requirements (handout, 02/21/24) ↗PPRBD fee schedule ↗2023 Pikes Peak Regional Building Code, 2nd printing ↗
City pickup
No. Colorado Springs has no city trash service, and private haulers set their own bulky-item rules. SoCo Waste, for example, points construction debris to its roll-off dumpsters.

Haul it yourself
El Paso County Transfer Station. Construction debris is priced as a flat fee or per cubic yard; no dollar amounts are published.
4 drop-off options →What it costs
Shed Gone: a price from your photos, with teardown, haul-away and cleanup included.
Others here: Only LoadUp publishes a shed price here: $94 to $1,559. Others quote per job or publish general junk rates, like Moon Junk Removal's $2.75 per cubic foot for construction debris.
Do I need a permit?Colorado Springs demolition rules, utilities and property checks.
The requirements depend on the structure, the work and the property’s jurisdiction. These are the official starting points for checking your job. Confirm with the building office before teardown day. How shed demolition permits work ↗
Wrecking permit: what PPRBD asks for
PPRBD requires a wrecking permit when an entire structure is removed. The fee is $30. Its checklist asks for a licensed wrecking contractor ID, insurance that includes explosion, collapse and underground (XCU) coverage, proof that gas and electric service were cut off by the utility, and a state health department permit for asbestos and debris removal (CDPHE, 303-692-3100).
PPRBD wrecking permit requirements (handout, 02/21/24) ↗PPRBD fee schedule ↗
Small sheds: the code doesn't settle it
The regional code requires a permit before any structure is demolished, except for work listed as exempt. That list includes one-story detached accessory structures of 200 sq ft or less that sit directly on grade, but it is titled Construction and Installations, and the wrecking checklist gives no size limit. Ask PPRBD before tearing down even a small shed.

Wiring, gas and digging
The regional code requires a permit to install, replace or repair any electrical, gas, mechanical or plumbing system. If the shed has a circuit, have a licensed electrician make it safe before the walls come down. If you will pull posts, piers or footings, contact Colorado 811 and wait at least 3 full business days before digging.

Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will Colorado Springs pick up shed debris?
No. The city doesn't collect trash; residents hire private haulers, and each sets its own bulky-item rules. SoCo Waste, for example, asks you to call ahead for bulk pickups, won't take concrete, dirt or bricks in the can, and points construction debris to its roll-off dumpsters. None of the hauler pages reviewed mentions shed lumber. Plan on a removal company, a dumpster, or a self-haul trip.

Drop-off and recycling options
If you’d rather haul it yourself, sort the load first: clean wood, metal, roofing, concrete and household contents often go to different places or cost different amounts. Call ahead before hiring a trailer. What can be recycled ↗

What else should I know in Colorado Springs?Local notes, and the photos that set the price.
One regional office handles permits for the city and county
The Pikes Peak Regional Building Department (PPRBD) issues permits for Colorado Springs, unincorporated El Paso County, Fountain, Manitou Springs, Monument, Palmer Lake, Green Mountain Falls, Calhan and Woodland Park. Whether the shed is inside city limits or out in Black Forest or Falcon, PPRBD is the office to ask. Main office: 2880 International Circle, 719-327-2880.
PPRBD homeowner permit information ↗PPRBD work exempt from permits ↗
Shed with its own meter? Colorado Springs Utilities pulls it
Most sheds are fed from the house panel. If yours has its own electric or gas service, PPRBD wants proof the utility cut it off. Colorado Springs Utilities takes a written removal request (719-668-8111) and says removals typically take 5 to 10 business days.
Colorado Springs Utilities request for removal of utilities ↗PPRBD wrecking permit requirements (handout, 02/21/24) ↗
Near a creek? A second permit may apply
Inside city limits, PPRBD's wrecking handout says a Grading and Erosion Control permit from the city's Stormwater Enterprise (719-385-5980) is also needed when the work disturbs a streamside overlay zone or affects an open drainage channel. You can check the overlay on the city's SpringsView map.
Putting up a new shed on the old pad
PPRBD says detached accessory structures under 200 sq ft generally need no building permit, but in Colorado Springs 125 sq ft or more needs city zoning approval. The city's code amendments require at least a Class B roof covering on accessory structures, and the fire department's wildfire guidance asks for ignition-resistant materials on outbuildings.

Photos that explain the job.
- The whole shed, with the roof, doors and rough dimensions
- What it sits on: slab, gravel, pavers, skids or blocks
- The route out: gates, steps, slopes and the narrowest gap
- Anything stored inside, and any wiring, lights or a water line
Tell us whether the shed has power. A licensed electrician should disconnect and make the circuit safe before teardown. Say which items stay, and whether the slab or footings go too.

Shed Gone
Priced from your photosA small empty resin shed and a large timber shed on a concrete slab are different jobs, so we don’t publish one number. The price depends on the shed’s size and material, what’s inside, what it sits on, and the route from the shed to the truck.

COMMON QUESTIONS
A few more answers.
Can I tear down my own shed without a contractor?
Yes, with conditions. The regional code lets the owner of a house or its accessory structure wreck it without a license, if the owner carries the same property damage, liability and XCU insurance required of a licensed wrecking contractor. PPRBD can waive the XCU part when the shed sits far enough from other buildings. A homeowner can pull permits only for the home they own and live in.
2023 Pikes Peak Regional Building Code, 2nd printing ↗PPRBD licensing FAQ ↗PPRBD homeowner permit information ↗
What should a shed removal quote include?
One written total for teardown, hauling, dump fees and cleanup. Ask whether it covers the contents, the floor, and the slab or footings, and who handles the wrecking permit. It is illegal for a homeowner to pull a permit for a contractor they hired, so a company doing the work pulls its own. Send photos of the shed and the path to the street.

Where can I take shed lumber and shingles myself?
The El Paso County Transfer Station on Laramie Drive lists wood and lumber, roofing shingles and scrap metal. It is privately owned despite its name, prices construction debris by flat fee or cubic yard, and requires every load to be tarped. WM's landfill on Blaney Road and the Fountain Landfill also list construction and demolition debris; call for public rates.
El Paso County Transfer Station accepted materials ↗El Paso County Transfer Station pricing and guidelines ↗El Paso County Transfer Station home page ↗WM Colorado Springs Landfill ↗Waste Connections Fountain Landfill ↗
What do I do with the concrete slab?
Break it up and keep it clean. Baseland Recycling on Sterling Ranch Road takes clean concrete with no tipping fee; concrete with rebar or wire costs $40 to $60 depending on the truck. Loads mixed with wood or metal need a call first (719-424-9797), and treated or painted wood is refused. Junk-N-Haul lists concrete removal as a separate service.
What about wasps, mice and old chemicals inside?
Deal with them first. Moon Junk Removal says it turns down jobs with excessive mouse droppings, wasp nests and other hazards, and Turnkey says it won't take paints or oils. SoCo Waste sends residents to El Paso County Household Hazardous Waste (719-520-7878) for items it can't take.
