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 demolition permit for every shed
Town Code §55-5(A) says no one may start the removal or demolition of any building or structure without a permit from the Code Enforcement Official, and no shed exemption appears in the chapter. The Code Enforcement page adds that before any building is demolished, in part or whole, the applicant must apply for a demolition permit, and some cases need a professional engineer. The Town's fee schedule, revised March 31, 2026, charges $50 for demolition work up to $1,000, $70 from $1,000 to $5,000, and $8 for each $1,000 over $5,000. Work started before applying doubles the fee. Code Enforcement: Town Hall, 1250 Union Road, Room 210, 716-558-3242.
Town of West Seneca Code Chapter 55: Building Code Administration and Enforcement ↗Town of West Seneca: Code Enforcement ↗Town of West Seneca Code Enforcement Office: Fee Schedule, revised 3/31/2026 (PDF) ↗
Asbestos survey
New York's Industrial Code Rule 56 has the owner get an asbestos survey by a certified state inspector before demolishing a building or structure, with a copy to the office that issues the demolition permit. The Department of Labor says surveys are required for all demolitions regardless of construction date. Older sheds can have asbestos siding or roofing.
Cleanup is the permit holder's job
The Code Enforcement page says the applicant for a building permit must clean any dirt, mud, stones or rubbish left on the street or premises at the end of each day. Town Code also says dirt, stone, brick and concrete from demolition can't go out for collection and must be disposed of by the owner or contractor.

Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will West Seneca pick up shed debris?
Only if you take the shed down yourself. Town Code §101-4(I) lets construction debris from an owner's or occupant's own work go in a tote, and the Sanitation page says extra project debris that won't fit may be bagged, boxed or bundled up to 50 pounds, with all nails bent over or removed. Red lid totes for small do-it-yourself projects are available on request for up to two weeks. The Town won't collect any debris from contractors; the page says lumber and material from building demolition can't be handled by its staff and equipment. Concrete, stone and brick are never picked up at the curb. Large items go out on garbage day with no call needed. Questions: Highway Department, 716-674-4850.

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 West Seneca?Local notes, and the photos that set the price.
Waste collectors need a Town license
West Seneca has no franchise hauler for demolition debris, but Town Code §101-10 says all authorized collectors must get a solid waste collecting license from the Town and display a collector sticker on each truck. The annual fee is $100 for the firm plus $50 per truck. The code defines a private collector as anyone collecting municipal solid waste or recyclables, and says one must hold a Town license to operate in West Seneca. It doesn't say whether a removal crew hauling its own shed debris counts.
No more extra-trash drop-off at the Highway Department
The Sanitation page says excess trash drop-off at the Highway Department is suspended. The Highway Department at 100 Gemcor Drive still takes tires and propane tanks for a fee, and electronics free from town residents with proof of residency.
A concrete recycler on Union Road
The Town sends residents with clean concrete and stone, but no dirt or red brick, to Ebenezer Yard Materials at 1655 Union Road, where a charge may apply. Check in at the white scale house at the rear of the complex. Casella's Union Transfer, a construction debris drop-off, is also on Union Road in West Seneca.
Town of West Seneca: Sanitation Department ↗Erie County Recycling: Building Materials ↗
A new shed needs its own permit
If you're replacing the old shed, the Town says every shed requires a permit and must sit in the rear yard, not on an easement. The application needs a property survey and a cross-section showing the height. The permit fee is $18 for the first $1,000 of the shed's cost and $8 for each $1,000 after that.

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.

Can a metal shed go to a scrap yard?
Yes. Niagara Metals' yard at 3035 Union Road in Cheektowaga buys steel, sheet iron, tin and aluminum, and its roofing and siding page names galvanized steel panels and aluminum roofing sheets. Bring a valid ID. The Town won't take car parts and heavy metals at the curb.
Niagara Metals: Cheektowaga yard ↗Niagara Metals ↗Niagara Metals: Roofing & Siding scrap ↗Town of West Seneca: Sanitation Department ↗
Do I need to call 811 before pulling posts or footings?
If you're digging, yes. Submit a free location request with UDig NY online or by calling 811. State law gives member utilities two business days to respond.
What about gas, paint and chemicals stored in the shed?
The Highway Department doesn't take paint, motor oil, gasoline or antifreeze. The Town points residents to PaintCare drop-off sites for leftover paint and to Erie County's household hazardous waste program for the rest.
Will the crew take the shed down or just haul it?
Rapid Junk Removal and K & H say they tear sheds down and haul the debris, and both have West Seneca pages; K & H says it takes almost every shed apart by hand. Junk Job lists West Seneca in its service area and shed removal among its services but doesn't describe the teardown.
