PERMITS & DIY DISPOSAL
Doing it yourself, or just checking the rules?
Here’s what Arlington asks for before a shed comes down, what city pickup will take, and where you can drop off the debris yourself.
Arlington rules at a glance
Demolition permit
Yes, if the shed is over 100 sq ft. Arlington requires a permit to demolish a structure, exempting only one-story storage sheds of 100 sq ft or less. The fee is $200 per building.
Arlington Construction Chapter, Code of Ordinances (Ord. 22-055) ↗Arlington Planning and Development Services fee schedule (effective Oct. 1, 2026) ↗
City pickup
No. Weekly bulky pickup lists construction debris as a prohibited item, and trash carts refuse shingles and construction materials. The city points residents to its landfill instead.
Haul it yourself
Arlington Landfill (City of Arlington). Arlington homeowners get three free visits a year (vehicles and trailers up to 16 feet), then $21 a load under 8 feet or $41 a ton (one-ton minimum) for 8 feet or longer. $13 charge for an untarped load. Everyone else pays rates that vary by location, given by phone.

Do I need a permit?Arlington 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 ↗
The 100-square-foot line
Section 4.02 of Arlington's Construction Chapter makes it unlawful to demolish any building or structure without a permit, and points to its exemption list. For one- and two-family homes, that list exempts one-story detached tool and storage sheds of 100 square feet or less. A common 8x12 shed (96 sq ft) falls under the line; a 10x12 (120 sq ft) does not. The exemption is written for the structure, not only for building it, but ask the Planner of the Day (817-459-6502, ext. 5) to confirm for your shed.
Arlington Construction Chapter, Code of Ordinances (Ord. 22-055) ↗Arlington: Work exempt from permitting ↗Arlington: Residential accessory structure permits ↗
The fee and how to apply
The fee schedule effective October 1, 2026, charges $200 per building to demolish, wreck, raze or dismantle a structure. Apply online at ArlingtonPermits.com with an aerial site plan showing what will be demolished. The city doesn't quote permit fees by phone.
Arlington Planning and Development Services fee schedule (effective Oct. 1, 2026) ↗Arlington: Demolition permit for structures 50 years or older ↗
Wiring and plumbing need their own permits
Arlington requires separate permits for electrical, plumbing and mechanical work. If the shed has a circuit, a gas line or water, plan for a licensed trade to disconnect it. Before pulling posts or piers, call 811 at least two business days ahead.

Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will Arlington pick up shed debris?
Not as construction debris. Weekly bulky pickup takes up to two cubic yards of household items, but its prohibited list includes construction debris, and the trash cart refuses shingles, concrete and construction materials. Fence panels are allowed if cut to 4 x 6 feet with nails and staples removed, but a shed is not named. For more than two cubic yards of allowed bulky items, Republic Services (817-317-2000) runs a paid special collection at $20.86 per cubic yard under 5 yards.

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 ↗
Arlington Landfill (City of Arlington)
800 Mosier Valley Road, Euless, TX 76040
City-owned landfill run by Republic Services, with a paved convenience area for residents' loads of trash and cleanup debris. It accepts all non-hazardous residential and commercial solid waste, and old concrete for recycling free of charge. It refuses liquids, paint, chemicals and batteries.
Fees: Arlington homeowners get three free visits a year (vehicles and trailers up to 16 feet), then $21 a load under 8 feet or $41 a ton (one-ton minimum) for 8 feet or longer. $13 charge for an untarped load. Everyone else pays rates that vary by location, given by phone.
Before you go: Open Monday to Saturday 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; hand-unloaded loads must be on the scales by 4 p.m. on weekdays. Call (817) 354-2305 for rates. Cover the load; a safety vest and hard hat are required in the working area.

Environmental Collection Center (City of Fort Worth)
6400 Bridge Street, Fort Worth, TX
Household hazardous waste drop-off for paint, motor oil, pesticides and similar chemicals that landfills and curbside pickup refuse. It does not take building debris.
Fees: No charge for residents of the area cities that use it, with proof of residency; check with your city.
Before you go: Open Thursday and Friday 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Bring a bill or ID showing your address.
City of Fort Worth Southeast Landfill
6288 Salt Road, Fort Worth, TX
The city's landfill, which it names for solid waste the Drop-Off Stations won't take and for contractors' construction debris. It does not accept tires, barrels, auto parts, liquid waste, used oil or hazardous waste. Shingles and concrete aren't named either way, so confirm before loading.
Fees: Fees apply. The city mentions a minimum one-ton rate or a per-ton fee for larger loads but does not publish the amounts.
Before you go: Call 817-478-6462 for current rates and hours before you go.

Older sheds can trigger a historic review
Arlington sends any demolition application to the Landmark Preservation Commission when the structure is 50 years or older, its age can't be determined, or it sits in a Landmark Preservation Overlay. Plan on up to 45 extra days and a separate $200 review fee. The commission can extend the hold but cannot deny the permit. Questions go to the Historic Preservation Officer at 817-459-6285.
Arlington: Demolition permit for structures 50 years or older ↗Arlington Planning and Development Services fee schedule (effective Oct. 1, 2026) ↗
Concrete goes to the landfill free
The city says the Arlington Landfill takes old concrete for recycling free of charge. That makes a broken-up shed slab the cheapest part of the job to get rid of if you can haul it yourself.
Shed chemicals go to Fort Worth, not the landfill
The Arlington Landfill turns away liquids, paint, chemicals and batteries. Arlington residents can take paint, oil and garden chemicals from a shed to Fort Worth's Environmental Collection Center at 6400 Bridge Street for free with proof of residency.
Homeowners register before doing their own work
Arlington's code requires anyone who demolishes a structure in the city to hold a city registration. A homeowner working on the home they live in registers as a homeowner; a hired company needs its own contractor registration, which costs $100 for one year.

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.

COMMON QUESTIONS
A few more answers.
What does a self-haul trip to the landfill cost?
Arlington homeowners get three free landfill visits a year in a car or trailer up to 16 feet, matched to their water account and Texas driver's license. After that, residents pay $21 a load in a pickup or trailer under 8 feet, or $41 a ton (one-ton minimum) for 8 feet or longer. An untarped load costs $13 more. Contractors pay standard rates.
Arlington Landfill (City of Arlington) ↗Arlington garbage and recycling rates and fees ↗
Can my contractor use my free landfill visits?
No. The city says contractors, landlords and unauthorized users pay standard landfill rates, and the free visits aren't transferable. If you want to use them, you or an authorized user on the water account has to drive the load.
Do I need an asbestos survey for an old shed?
Texas DSHS says one private residence is not subject to the federal asbestos rules, and no notice is required. Arlington's demolition checklist asks for an asbestos survey only for commercial sites. Old cement-board siding or roof panels still deserve care; ask the crew how they handle them.

Who tears the shed down, and who takes the slab?
Junk Master says its teardown includes removing the foundation or slab if needed and handles sheds with wiring. Green Source asks you to mention a thick concrete pad when booking so it can bring breaking equipment. Junk Geeks breaks the shed down and loads every board. LoadUp connects you with independent haulers.

Does the company or the homeowner pull the permit?
None of the listed companies says it pulls Arlington demolition permits. Either a registered contractor or a homeowner with a homeowner registration can apply. Settle who files and who pays the $200 before you book.
