SHED REMOVAL IN VANCOUVER

We take it down.
We haul it away.

How it works ↗

Shed removal is all we do. Wood, metal or resin, falling apart or still standing, we take your Vancouver 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 Vancouver 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.

01

PERMITS & DIY DISPOSAL

Doing it yourself, or just checking the rules?

Here’s what Vancouver asks for before a shed comes down, what city pickup will take, and where you can drop off the debris yourself.

Vancouver rules at a glance

Demolition permit

Not spelled out for small sheds. Vancouver needs a demolition permit for each building that's occupied or has power, gas, water or sewer. Ask Permit Specialists, 360-487-7833.

City of Vancouver: Demolition Projects FAQ ↗City of Vancouver: Residential Building Permits ↗

City pickup

No. Vancouver's free bulky item pickup refuses concrete and construction and demolition materials. Shed debris can be self-hauled to Central Transfer or West Van at $118.65 a ton plus $10 a trip.

01

What Vancouver says about demolition permits

Vancouver's demolition FAQ says each building that is occupied or has electrical, gas, water or sewer connections needs its own demolition (DMO) permit, and that small unoccupied sheds without utilities can go on one application with a main building being demolished. It doesn't say whether a shed torn down by itself needs a permit. A shed of 120 square feet or less needs no permit to build. DMO fees follow the City's valuation table, which starts at $30.93 for up to $500 of value, plus a $32 issuance fee and a $6.50 state fee. Questions: Permit Specialists, 360-487-7833 or eplans@cityofvancouver.us.

Asbestos survey and Clean Air Agency notice

Clark County is in the Southwest Clean Air Agency's area. Its rule, updated March 22, 2026, requires an AHERA-accredited inspector's asbestos inspection before any demolition, and a Notice of Demolition even when no asbestos is found. The agency's definition of a structure includes garages and lean-tos, and no size exemption was found. A demolition notice without asbestos costs $77 and starts a 10-day wait. Questions: 360-574-3058.

Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.

Will Vancouver pick up shed debris?

No. Homes with Waste Connections garbage service get one free bulky pickup a year for up to five items under 100 pounds each, but concrete and construction and demolition materials are on the not-accepted list. Paid bulky pickups through Waste Connections are another option for single items. Shed debris goes to a transfer station by self-haul, or out with a crew.

Only the City's contracted hauler may collect waste in Vancouver

Vancouver's code says no one but the City's contracted collector, Waste Connections, or a special waste contractor (for things like asbestos or medical waste) may collect solid waste in the city, and it counts demolition and construction waste as solid waste. The code read has no exception for a demolition contractor. Clark County's self-haul rules let a contractor haul garbage it produced itself, in a company-owned, labeled vehicle; mixed garbage from several parties at a job must go with the certified hauler, Waste Connections. Questions: Vancouver Solid Waste Services, 360-487-7160.

Older sheds: photos and a PCB check

For a building more than 50 years old, Vancouver asks for photos of each side with the demolition application. The City also warns that buildings built or renovated between 1950 and 1980 may contain PCBs, including in paint and asphalt roofing, and that only lab testing can tell.

City of Vancouver: Demolition Projects FAQ ↗

Secure your load or pay more

Washington and local rules require every self-hauled load to be secured and covered. A load with visible unsecured waste can bring a State Patrol citation and a surcharge at the transfer station.

Clark County Public Works: Self-haul options ↗

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 photos

A 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.

Who takes the concrete slab?

A-1 Demolition & Hauling and OnPoint Removal both list concrete removal among their services. Neither says on its shed page whether slab removal is part of a shed job, so ask when you get a quote.

Will a junk company take the shed down or just haul it?

OnPoint, A-1, Charlie & Sons and Oregon Junk Busters describe taking the shed apart and hauling it off. LoadUp says light disassembly may be needed. A-1 says most small structures come down in a day and asks you to disconnect power and water first.

Will I need a permit to put up a new shed?

Vancouver needs no permit for a shed of 120 square feet or less outside an environmentally sensitive area. A detached shed, shop or garage over 120 square feet needs a residential building permit with a site plan and drawings.
