SHED REMOVAL IN ST. PETERSBURG
We take it down.
We haul it away.

- 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 St. Petersburg 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.

City of St. Petersburg List of Exempted Permits (PDF) ↗St. Petersburg City Code Sec. 12-6 (fee schedule) ↗

Do I need a permit?St. Petersburg 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 ↗
Any roofed shed needs a demolition permit
The Building Department's List of Exempted Permits says anyone who intends to demolish a building or structure must get a permit, and lists as an exception to every exemption that demolishing any structure supporting a roof load requires one. The small-shed exemption covers only assembling or tying down portable sheds under 100 square feet. The newer under-$7,500 exemption doesn't apply to structural work.
City of St. Petersburg List of Exempted Permits (PDF) ↗City of St. Petersburg: Building Permits ↗
Fee and where to apply
City Code Sec. 12-6 sets the demolition base fee at $125 for up to 5,000 square feet and notes other permits may be needed. Homeowners can apply at the Municipal Services Center, One 4th St. N.
St. Petersburg City Code Sec. 12-6 (fee schedule) ↗City of St. Petersburg: Building Permits ↗
Wiring and digging
The exempt list says electrical, plumbing, mechanical or gas work in or on a shed still needs its own permit, so have a licensed electrician cut off a shed circuit. Pulling posts, piers or anchors is digging: contact Sunshine 811 first.

Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will St. Petersburg pick up shed debris?
Yes, for a fee. The City's Special Pickup hauls building materials and other items outside its free list at $25.65 per cubic yard, and Sanitation gives an estimate based on the amount. Up to two doors and two windows go free. Request it in SeeClickFix with a photo, or call 727-893-7398, and set the pile where your trash is usually collected.
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 ↗

3095 114th Ave. N., St. Petersburg, FL 33716

Haulers whose main business is debris need a City permit
St. Petersburg runs its own trash service and is the only one allowed to collect household garbage, but construction and demolition debris is excluded: the City may haul it, just not exclusively. Private collectors whose primary business is hauling C&D debris need a City private collector of waste permit ($350). The code exempts a business whose primary work isn't hauling, when it removes the debris from its own job on that property. The code doesn't say which side a shed removal company falls on. Violations carry a $500 fine.
St. Petersburg City Code Chapter 27, Article V (Solid Waste) ↗City of St. Petersburg: Commercial Trash and Private Collector Permits ↗
Pressure-treated lumber needs an appointment at the County
Shed floors and skids are often pressure-treated. Pinellas County lists treated lumber as a special-handling waste that needs an appointment at the Solid Waste Disposal Complex, and adds a $110 per load fee on top of the disposal charge. Call (727) 464-7500 before you bring it.
City brush sites take metal panels and cement roof tiles
St. Pete's five brush sites take mixed metals, appliances and cement roofing tiles from properties that pay City sanitation, free, 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. every day. They don't take lumber. A hired crew can't drop a load unless the account holder comes along or sends the City's consent form.
Historic properties pay for a demolition review
The City's fee schedule includes a Certificate of Appropriateness for demolishing an accessory structure, at $500 for commission review. If your home is a local landmark or in a local historic district, ask the City's Historic Preservation staff before a shed comes down.
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.
