SHED REMOVAL IN PLUM
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 Plum 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 Plum 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 Plum asks for before a shed comes down, what city pickup will take, and where you can drop off the debris yourself.
Plum rules at a glance
Demolition permit
Yes. Plum requires a building permit for demolitions. The fee is $75 for the first $1,000 of work plus $5 for each $1,000 after, plus a $4.50 state fee. Call 412-795-6800.
Borough of Plum: Community Development ↗Borough of Plum: Fee Schedule, Ordinance 982-24 (PDF) ↗
City pickup
No. County Hauling, Plum's contract hauler, doesn't take construction or demolition materials with regular trash, and bulk pickup is one item a week.

Demolition permit and what to bring
Plum's Community Development page lists demolitions among the jobs that need a residential building permit, and the fee ordinance says a permit must be issued before demolishing a structure. The permit packet asks for a copy of the demolition contract, utility service disconnection letters and a copy of the Allegheny County asbestos removal permit. Fences and demolitions cost $75 for the first $1,000 of work plus $5 for each $1,000 after, plus the $4.50 state UCC fee.

Asbestos: county rules for a home shed
The Allegheny County Health Department handles asbestos here. Homeowners working on their own home are exempt from its asbestos rules, and anyone hired to abate asbestos must hold an ACHD contractor license. Plum's demolition checklist still lists the county asbestos removal permit, so ask the borough whether a small shed with no asbestos needs one.
Allegheny County Health Department: Asbestos and Abrasive Blasting ↗Borough of Plum: Residential Building Permit packet (PDF) ↗
Call 811 before pulling posts or footings
Plum tells residents to call 811 before any digging so underground utility lines are marked for free, and notes that state law may require 48 to 72 hours' notice.
Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will Plum trash pickup take shed debris?
No. County Hauling collects Plum's trash and recycling under a borough contract, and its handbook lists construction and demolition materials among items not accepted with normal trash. Bulk pickup is limited to one item a week, such as a couch or appliance. For a big cleanup the borough suggests a roll-off dumpster from any company you choose, kept on your own property.

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 ↗

Hauler rule: Plum's waste code isn't posted online
Plum contracts with County Hauling for trash and recycling at single-family homes and buildings of four or fewer units. No borough waste or hauler-license ordinance was found online, so it's not confirmed whether a removal company needs a borough license to haul shed debris. The borough's trash handbook does let homeowners use any dumpster company they choose, as long as the dumpster sits on their own property and not on a borough road.
Borough of Plum: Garbage / Recycling Information ↗Borough of Plum: Trash and Recycling Customer Handbook (PDF) ↗
Plum's building code work runs through Community Development
Plum has enforced the state Uniform Construction Code itself since 2004. Permits, zoning certificates and code enforcement all go through the Community Development Department at the borough building, 2000 Mike Thomas Way, 412-795-6800; the Building Code Official is at ext. 4506.
Borough of Plum: Residential Building Permit packet (PDF) ↗Borough of Plum: Community Development ↗
Free curbside pickup for shed chemicals
Old paint, lawn and garden chemicals, pesticides, batteries and similar shed leftovers can go to County Hauling's on-call, door-to-door hazardous waste pickup. It is included in Plum's trash service at no extra charge, but you must register first.
Borough of Plum: Household Hazardous and E-Waste Information (PDF) ↗
Replacing the shed
A new shed under 200 square feet needs a zoning certificate ($50); one of 200 square feet or more needs a building permit. Plum limits the size of these structures based on lot acreage, so check before ordering a bigger one.

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.

Only LoadUp publishes a shed price for the area: $94 to $1,559 in Allegheny County, set when you book. College HUNKS shows $99 to $699 for junk loads, which isn't shed-specific. Wolfgang Hauling and Junked Pittsburgh quote each job. None of these prices says it covers Plum's demolition permit fee.

Where can I take shed debris myself?
The closest landfill is WM's Monroeville Landfill at 2841 Broadway Blvd., which lists construction and demolition debris among accepted materials. It's open weekdays 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. to noon. WM's Valley Landfill in Irwin also takes C&D debris on weekdays. Neither posts a price, so call first.
Can I sell a metal shed for scrap?
Possibly. All four Michael Brothers yards take scrap metal from the public, including the Adamsburg yard at 427 Edna Rd., open weekdays 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and Saturday until 12:30 p.m. Its posted sample prices don't cover shed panels, so call for a price.
Michael Brothers: Contact Us ↗Michael Brothers: Scrap Metal Recycling ↗
Can I rent a dumpster for the teardown?
Yes. Plum's trash handbook says you can use any dumpster company, and the fees are yours. The dumpster has to sit on your own property; it can't go on a borough road.
Borough of Plum: Trash and Recycling Customer Handbook (PDF) ↗
Does Plum need anything from the utilities first?
Yes, if the shed has service. Plum's demolition checklist asks for utility service disconnection letters with the permit application, so have power, water or gas to the shed shut off and documented first.
