SHED REMOVAL IN BROOKFIELD
We take it down.
We haul it away.

- 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 Brookfield 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.

Do I need a permit?Brookfield 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 ↗
Razing any structure needs a permit
Brookfield's building code says no one may raze or demolish any building or structure, or any part of one, without a permit from the Director of Inspection Services. The City's permit table marks razing a structure as needing a building permit and a plumbing permit. A 30-square-foot exemption exists only for building a new accessory building. The 2026 residential fee is $100 plus $0.16 per square foot demolished, up to $1,000, so a 10-by-12 shed comes to about $119. Apply online through the City's residential building permit.

Utilities are disconnected before the permit
The owner must notify every utility serving the structure, and the City won't issue a raze permit until meters and service connections are removed, disconnected or sealed. Sewer and water laterals must be abandoned under a separate excavation and plumbing permit, with a video of the sewer lateral sent to the City engineer.
Brookfield Municipal Code ch. 15.04: Building Code (§§ 15.04.310, 15.04.420) ↗
Wiring to the shed
Brookfield requires an electrical permit before any electrical installation is altered, and electricians must hold a Wisconsin licence or registration. Have a licensed electrician cut and cap the shed circuit before teardown.
Can I dispose of it myself?City pickup rules, drop-off options and fees for shed debris.
Will Brookfield pick up shed debris?
Only a little at a time. The City's hauler, GFL, lists lumber and construction debris among the bulky items it will take for a fee: $45 per pickup of up to two items, arranged by calling 262-367-6040. A whole shed's lumber, roofing and floor is far more than that. Bulky items may go out no more than 24 hours before pickup, and trash cans are limited to 50 pounds and five a week.

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 ↗
City of Brookfield Recycle Center

City-run recycling drop-off. It takes only recyclable materials, including fairly clean asphalt, brick and concrete (up to half a cubic yard per visit) and scrap metal with the non-metal parts removed. It does not take lumber or other non-recyclables.

What else should I know in Brookfield?Local notes, and the photos that set the price.
Any hauler may take bulky items; no debris franchise found
GFL holds the City's trash and recycling contract, but Brookfield's code says bulky items may be picked up by the City's collector or by any other waste hauler, and no section gives a company sole rights to haul debris or requires a local hauler licence. At the state level, Wisconsin DNR requires an operating licence for waste collection and transport services, with an exemption for services hauling less than 20 tons a year.

The Riverview Drive Recycle Center takes slab chunks, not lumber
The City Recycle Center at 19700 Riverview Drive takes only recyclables. It accepts fairly clean asphalt, brick and concrete and scrap metal with the non-metal parts removed, up to half a cubic yard of masonry per visit, but not lumber or other non-recyclables. Dump trucks, trucks larger than a pickup and trailers over 8 by 10 feet aren't allowed.
City of Brookfield: City Recycle Center ↗City of Brookfield: Items Accepted at the Recycle Center (PDF) ↗
Brookfield's code bans burning construction debris
Brookfield counts composite shingles and construction or demolition debris as garbage, and no one may burn garbage or use a burn barrel in the City. A torn-down shed has to be hauled away, not burned.
Brookfield Municipal Code ch. 8.36: Open Burning and Recreational Fires ↗
This is the City of Brookfield, not the Town
These rules are for the City of Brookfield, whose Inspection Services office is at City Hall, 2000 N. Calhoun Road. The Town of Brookfield is a separate municipality with its own building inspector and trash hauler (John's Disposal, per the county), so Town residents should check with the Town.

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.

Does an old shed need an asbestos check?
Wisconsin DNR doesn't require an asbestos inspection or notice for a single residential structure with four or fewer homes, unless it's part of a larger project such as a road or commercial development. If siding or roofing might hold asbestos, Waukesha County lists Micro Analytical in Milwaukee for lab testing.

Do I need a permit for a new shed?
Yes, unless it's under 30 square feet. Brookfield allows no more than two accessory buildings on a residential lot. The 2026 fee is $80 minimum or 37 cents a square foot, plus an $80 plan review fee.
