- The slab, gravel pad or footings, if you want them out

PERMITS & DIY DISPOSAL
Doing it yourself, or just checking the rules?
Here’s what Hillsboro asks for before a shed comes down, what city pickup will take, and where you can drop off the debris yourself.
Hillsboro rules at a glance
Demolition permit
Yes, if the shed is over 200 square feet. Hillsboro requires a demolition permit to fully remove a residential structure larger than that; smaller sheds aren't named. Questions: 503-681-6153.
City pickup
Not confirmed. Hillsboro's franchised haulers pick up bulky items for a $22 trip fee plus an item charge, and say they take most anything, but lumber isn't priced. Ask your hauler.

Others here: Junk Hubris lists $300 to $500 for sheds under 100 sq ft, up to $1,000+ for 150 to 200+ sq ft. LoadUp shows $94 to $1,559 for Washington County. Others quote each shed.

Do I need a permit?Hillsboro 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 Hillsboro says about demolition permits
Hillsboro's building permit page says a demolition permit is required for the complete removal of a residential structure over 200 square feet in floor area (120 square feet for commercial structures). Taking down only part of a structure counts as an alteration and needs a building permit instead. The page doesn't list a demolition fee. Questions: Development & Permitting, 503-681-6153, Hillsboro Civic Center, 150 E Main Street, 4th floor.
Before a permitted demolition: utilities, no burning
Hillsboro's demolition checklist requires all public and private utilities to be properly disconnected first, including gas, electric, sewer, septic, storm and water, and says burning construction material is prohibited. Changing or extending branch circuits needs a City electrical permit. If posts or footings are buried, contact Oregon 811 before digging.
City of Hillsboro: Demolition permit checklist (PDF) ↗City of Hillsboro: Building permits ↗Oregon Utility Notification Center (Oregon 811) ↗
Oregon's asbestos survey rule
Oregon DEQ requires an accredited inspector's asbestos survey before demolishing any facility, which its rules define to include any structure. Homes with up to four units built after January 1, 2004 are exempt; whether an older detached shed counts as part of the home is not spelled out. Hillsboro's demolition checklist lists checking for asbestos as the first step.

Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will Hillsboro pick up shed debris?
Not confirmed. The City doesn't collect garbage itself; six franchised companies do, and the City's standards require them to offer on-call bulky pickup. The adopted rates set a $22 trip fee plus a charge per item, list furniture, appliances and pallets ($6 each) but not lumber or shed panels, and say bulky pickup is available for most anything, with unlisted items priced by the hauler. Call your hauler before setting shed pieces out.

What else should I know in Hillsboro?Local notes, and the photos that set the price.
Only a City franchisee may haul solid waste in Hillsboro
Hillsboro's code bars anyone without a City franchise from providing or advertising solid waste collection or drop box service in the city, and from hiring someone who lacks a franchise. Its definitions follow state law, which counts discarded demolition and construction materials as solid waste. The exceptions cover hauling waste you or your employees produced, charities, tires, and landscaping, gardening or tree-service waste hauled by the crew doing that work. There is no one-time clean-out exception like Portland's. Six franchised companies serve the city.
Hillsboro Municipal Code Chapter 6: Solid waste (Municode) ↗ORS 459.005: Solid waste definitions ↗City of Hillsboro: Garbage and recycling ↗
Conservation districts and historic sites can stop a demolition
Hillsboro's demolition checklist sends properties in the Downtown Neighborhood Conservation and Orenco Townsite Conservation districts to Planning for development review and photos before a demolition permit, and says demolition permits there can be denied. Structures on the Hillsboro Cultural Resource Inventory need a Cultural Resource Alteration approval first.
Debris must leave the lot within 7 days
Hillsboro's code says all waste left from demolition, repair or construction must be removed from the property by the owner or person in charge within 7 days of substantial completion. Don't leave a pile of shed boards waiting for a later trip.
Hillsboro Municipal Code Chapter 6: Solid waste (Municode) ↗
Metro sends mixed shed debris to a recovery facility
Hillsboro is inside Metro's service area, where all mixed waste must go to a Metro-authorized material recovery facility, and hauling construction debris straight to a landfill breaks Metro code. Tualatin Valley Waste Recovery on SE Minter Bridge Road in Hillsboro is on Metro's July 2026 list of facilities authorized to process construction and demolition debris.

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 my garbage company bring a drop box instead?
Yes. Hillsboro's adopted rates set a $60 delivery fee and $154 service for a 10- or 20-yard box, plus $4 a mile to the disposal site and the disposal fee. Temporary customers pay a daily rental after 48 hours.
City of Hillsboro: Solid waste and recycling collection rates (PDF) ↗
What if the shed has old asbestos siding or roofing?
Have it tested before the shed comes down. Forest Grove screens every C&D load for asbestos and may ask for a survey, Metro's stations won't take it, and DEQ requires asbestos waste to go to a landfill permitted for it.
WM Northwest: Forest Grove Transfer Station ↗Metro: Metro Central transfer station ↗Oregon DEQ: Asbestos information for homeowners ↗
Will a junk company take the shed down or just haul it?
Most here say they take it down. Junk Hubris, Oregon Junk Busters and Charlie & Sons describe dismantling and hauling, and Junk Hubris offers slab removal as an add-on. Ernie's Wagon, based in Hillsboro, lists shed removal among its specialties. LoadUp says light disassembly may be needed. College HUNKS lists storage sheds without describing teardown, so ask.
