Deck Removal

Got an old deck that’s rotting, unsafe, or just ready to go? Rodeo Junk Removal provides full-service deck removal across Southern Middle Tennessee, Middle Tennessee, and North Alabama with free on-site estimates, upfront pricing, and safe teardown with complete haul-off.

Decks can be heavy, splintered, and full of stubborn fasteners. We’ll break it down, load everything up, remove the debris, and do a quick tidy so your yard is cleaner and safer when we’re done.

  • Free on-site estimate (pricing confirmed in person)
  • Upfront all-in price (you approve before work begins)
  • Insured, professional crew
  • Quick tidy / clean finish

What’s Included With Deck Removal

We can remove most typical residential deck materials, including:

  • Deck boards and decking surface
  • Joists, framing lumber, and supports
  • Deck stairs and railings
  • Lattice and skirting
  • Hardware and debris (nails/screws/fasteners)
  • Any leftover decking piles you already tore out
  • Deck footings/posts (when feasible — heavy concrete may affect pricing)
  • Ledger/attachment area debris cleanup (we confirm scope during estimate)
  • Mixed teardown piles (wood + composite + fasteners)

If the deck is attached to the house, we’ll evaluate the safest approach during the estimate and confirm exactly what’s included.

If you only want the boards/railings removed (not the full frame), just tell us—we’ll confirm the exact scope during the estimate.

Before We Remove a Deck

You don’t need to do anything ahead of time, but it helps to clear personal items off the deck (furniture, grills, plants). If the deck has electrical lines, gas lines, or lighting, let us know so we can plan a safe teardown. We’ll also plan around fences, gates, and tight backyard access.

Remove furniture, grills, planters, and personal items from the deck before removal

Clear personal items

Please remove furniture, grills, planters, rugs, and personal items so teardown can start safely and efficiently.

Check for lights, outlets, and utilities attached to the deck before removal

Call out utilities

If the deck has lighting, outlets, gas lines, or anything attached, tell us upfront so we can plan a safe teardown.

Gate and access path for deck removal (tight access, fences, stairs, long carry)

Access notes

Let us know about gates, fences, steep yards, tight side-yard access, or parking restrictions—access affects time and pricing.


What Affects the Price of Deck Removal?

Deck size, height, and structure complexity affects deck removal pricing

Size + structure

A small landing costs less than a large multi-level deck. Height and complexity also affect teardown time.

Materials + weight

Wood vs composite vs mixed materials—heavier materials can increase labor and disposal costs.

Deck attachment to the house, stairs, railings, and skirting affects deck removal pricing

Attachment + components

How it’s attached to the house (ledger area), plus stairs/railings and skirting, affects labor.

Deck removal access and carry distance (tight gates, long carry, parking distance)

Access + carry

Tight gates, steep yards, long carries, and parking distance affect time and crew needs.

We’ll explain the price in plain language so it makes sense.
