SHED REMOVAL IN PALM CITY
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 Palm City 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 Palm City 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 Palm City asks for before a shed comes down, what city pickup will take, and where you can drop off the debris yourself.
Palm City rules at a glance
Demolition permit
Yes. Martin County, which issues Palm City permits, says anyone who intends to demolish a building or structure must apply first, and it has a demolition checklist. Call 772-288-5916.
Martin County: Do I Need a Building Permit? ↗Martin County: Demolition Checklist (PDF) ↗
City pickup
Only a small do-it-yourself share. Waste Management's curbside bulk pickup takes up to 2 cubic yards a week of DIY construction debris, including wood, but refuses contractor waste.

Do I need a permit?Palm City 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 ↗
What Martin County asks for a demolition permit
The County's permit page uses the Florida Building Code rule: anyone who intends to construct, alter, move or demolish a building or structure must apply and get a permit first, and it lists sheds among projects that need one. For exemptions it points to Florida Building Code Sec. 105.2. The demolition checklist asks for the building permit application and, for owner-builders, a disclosure statement signed in person at 900 SE Ruhnke Street; floor plans are needed only for partial demolition. The fee schedule effective July 1, 2026 bases fees on construction cost: under $25,000, a $75 building fee, $25 plan review and $75 per inspection. How a shed teardown is valued isn't stated; call 772-288-5916.
Martin County: Do I Need a Building Permit? ↗Martin County: Demolition Checklist (PDF) ↗Martin County Building Department: Fee Schedule, effective July 1, 2026 (PDF) ↗
HB 803 doesn't cover sheds
Since July 1, 2026, Florida's HB 803 lets some non-structural single-family work under $7,500 skip a permit, with County approval. Martin County says the exemption doesn't apply to electrical or structural work, or to lots in a flood zone, and names storage sheds as structural. That page is about building work and doesn't mention demolition.
Martin County: New Rules Related to Building Permit Exemptions (HB 803) ↗
Wired sheds and digging
The same permit rule covers anyone who intends to remove an electrical system, so a shed circuit needs to be handled under a permit by an electrician. Contact Sunshine 811 before pulling posts, piers or ground anchors, and mind septic and well lines on larger lots.
Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will Martin County pick up shed debris in Palm City?
Only a little. Bulk pickup comes with regular Waste Management service on your garbage day, and the County lists DIY construction debris, up to 2 cubic yards a week, with wood and fencing among accepted items. It won't take construction debris from somewhere other than your property, or any construction material generated by a contractor, which the contractor must dispose of. Items too large for the truck are tagged and picked up within five business days. Call Waste Management at (772) 546-7700 to get on the route.
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 ↗

No franchise is needed to haul demolition debris
Martin County requires a franchise to run a solid waste collection business in unincorporated areas like Palm City, but Sec. 151.141 has carved out demolition debris since Oct. 1, 2023: 'any person may collect and transport bulky waste and construction and demolition debris' without a County franchise. The exemption doesn't cover infringing on a franchisee that holds an exclusive right to collect C&D in an area or from certain customers. The code doesn't say whether any such exclusive C&D franchise exists today. Waste Management holds the residential trash service.
Martin County Code, Chapter 151 (Solid Waste) ↗Martin County: Bulk Waste ↗
Martin County, not a city, runs Palm City
Palm City is an unincorporated community, so Martin County is the permitting and solid waste authority. Building permits come from the Martin County Building Department at 900 SE Ruhnke Street in Stuart (772-288-5916), and trash service and the transfer station are run under Martin County rules.
Palm City, Florida (Wikipedia) ↗Martin County: Do I Need a Building Permit? ↗Martin County Code, Chapter 151 (Solid Waste) ↗
Debris goes in a container or a truck
Sec. 151.114 says construction and demolition debris at a demolition site must be kept in a commercial container or truck until it leaves. An owner doing the work at their own single-family home doesn't need a commercial container but must remove the debris promptly when done. Debris that blows onto neighboring property must be picked up the same day.
The County transfer station is in Palm City
Martin County's only public drop-off for construction and demolition debris, the Solid Waste Transfer & Recycling Facility, sits at 9101 SW Busch Street in Palm City. It's self-haul and self-unload.
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.

Martin County: Rates and Regulations, Solid Waste Facility (PDF) ↗Martin County: Solid Waste Transfer & Recycling Facility ↗
Is it cheaper to separate the concrete and wood?
Yes. The County charges $27.90 a ton for clean debris, meaning concrete, wood and metal kept separate for recycling, about half the mixed construction debris rate. Keep slab chunks, clean lumber and metal panels in their own piles.
Martin County: Rates and Regulations, Solid Waste Facility (PDF) ↗
Can an aluminum shed go to a scrap yard?
Yes. Stuart Recycling at 2963 SE Dominica Terrace buys non-ferrous metal, including sheet aluminum, aluminum fencing and window frames, and is open to the public weekdays 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday until 2 p.m. Prices aren't posted, and steel isn't on its list, so call 772-463-1663 first.
Do I need an asbestos survey for an old shed?
Usually not under federal rules for homes: Florida DEP says the asbestos demolition rules exclude isolated residential buildings with four or fewer units. If old cement siding or shingles might contain asbestos, ask the transfer station (772-419-6967) before hauling them.
Florida DEP Asbestos FAQ ↗Martin County: Solid Waste Transfer & Recycling Facility ↗
What about old paint and chemicals in the shed?
Martin County residents can bring hazardous waste to the County's Household Hazardous Waste Disposal Center or the HazMobile for free. Keep gas cans, pesticides and paint out of the debris load.
