We take it down.
We haul it away.

- 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 Fort Lauderdale 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.

Do I need a permit?Fort Lauderdale 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 ↗
A permit to demolish, with no shed exemption
The City's permitting page quotes Florida Building Code 105.1: any owner, agent or contractor who wants to demolish a building or structure must first get a permit. The City also requires a permit to put up a shed. The new under-$7,500 exemption doesn't cover structural, electrical or plumbing work and needs written approval first. An owner of a one- or two-family home they live in may pull the permit as owner-builder. Permit Solutions Team: 954-828-3160.
Fort Lauderdale Building Services (Permitting Services) ↗Fort Lauderdale Permitting Updates: HB 803 and Fee Policies ↗
What the City's demolition checklist asks for
The Building Division's demolition checklist is written for structural demolition. It lists the Broward asbestos statement, a current survey marking the structure to be demolished, a pest control report showing the property is free of rodents, a debris form signed by the owner, and an FPL disconnect letter. An owner's demolition permit is good for 60 days. Ask which items apply to a backyard shed.
Fort Lauderdale Demolition Permitting Checklist (Rev. 16) ↗Fort Lauderdale Building Services (Permitting Services) ↗
Fees
The fee schedule revised September 17, 2026 sets a stand-alone permit at a $131 minimum or 1.75% of construction cost. State surcharges and a $5 lien-law fee are added on top.
Fort Lauderdale Building Permit Fees (Rev. 10, Sept. 17, 2026) ↗
Wiring and digging
Electrical work is never exempt from a permit in Fort Lauderdale, so have a licensed electrician cut off a shed circuit. Pulling posts, piers or anchors is digging: the City says to call 811 first.

Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will Fort Lauderdale pick up shed debris?
No. The City's monthly bulk pickup, for homes and buildings of three units or fewer, takes household items and yard waste in a pile up to 10 cubic yards. Construction debris isn't accepted, and the not-accepted list includes wood and metal walls, roofing materials, concrete and pavers. The brochure says renovation debris is the owner's job, by dumpster or a hauling service. Call 954-828-8000 for a list of disposal sites.

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 ↗

Only City-licensed haulers may haul waste for hire
Fort Lauderdale has no single franchised hauler. Instead, its code says no one may haul solid waste over City streets for hire without a City license, and knowingly using an unlicensed collection company is a violation. The code's definition of solid waste includes construction and demolition debris. The City publishes a Licensed Collectors list of 24 firms, mostly dumpster and roll-off companies. XS Trash is on it; LoadUp and College HUNKS are not. Ask any company you hire whether it holds the City license.

Sheds in Sailboat Bend need a historic review
Fort Lauderdale has three local historic districts, and Sailboat Bend is the largest, with more than 550 buildings. On a designated historic property, a Certificate of Appropriateness is required for any work that changes the exterior, and demolition is one of the listed categories. Historic Preservation reviews the permit application first.
Fort Lauderdale Historic Districts ↗Fort Lauderdale Certificate of Appropriateness ↗
A Broward asbestos form comes before any demolition permit
Broward County asks anyone planning to demolish a structure to file a Statement of Responsibilities Regarding Asbestos online. Homes with four or fewer units are exempt from the asbestos rules themselves and pay no fee, but still need the filing to get the certificate that goes with the permit application.
Broward County ePermits Asbestos Instructions ↗Fort Lauderdale Demolition Permitting Checklist (Rev. 16) ↗
Paint and pool chemicals go to a drop-off event
Old paint, pesticides, fertilizer and pool chemicals often sit in a shed. The City's household hazardous waste events take them, but not construction debris. Hazardous waste can't go in bulk piles or carts.

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.
Start a quote from photos ↗Other companies’ advertised prices
Only LoadUp publishes a shed price here: $94 to $1,559 in Broward County, set when you book. College HUNKS lists $99 to $699 for general junk loads, not sheds. XS Trash quotes each shed from photos. None of these prices says it includes the City's demolition permit.
LoadUp ↗
$94–$1,559The shed page gives a $94 to $1,559 range for Broward County. The real price is shown when you book online, and it's lower for a shed that's already taken apart. Its national shed page says removal typically starts around $1,555; its local pages say an already-disassembled shed costs less.
These are the other companies’ own advertised prices, checked October 9, 2026. They are not our prices and not a citywide average.
When you compare quotes, ask for one written total that covers dismantling, hauling, disposal fees and cleanup, and ask whether the contents, the floor and the slab or footings are included. What shed removal costs ↗
