That Old Hot Tub, Gone in One Visit
An above-ground hot tub that's done working is just a 500-pound problem sitting in the yard. It was probably craned or rolled in before the fence and landscaping went up, which means it usually can't leave the way it came. So it gets drained, disconnected, cut into sections, and carried out piece by piece through whatever path the yard allows. DemoRex removes portable hot tubs, swim spas, and above-ground spas throughout the Central Valley, along with the steps, cover, and equipment that go with them.
We handle the whole thing: drain it, cut it down, carry it out, and haul it off, with the shell and frame sorted for recycling. If it's sitting on a deck or pad you want gone too, we can take that in the same visit. By the time we leave, it's open space again.
Please note: we do not haul hazardous waste, including car batteries, railroad ties, wet paint, and chemicals.
Have an in-ground spa? That's a different job — see our [in-ground spa removal] page.

We'll look at the tub and the path out, then get you a price. Quick and easy. No pressure, no strings.
Above-Ground Spa & Hot Tub Removal
The above-ground hot tub is one of the most abandoned items in any backyard. It worked for a few seasons, then a pump went out or the repairs stopped being worth it and now several hundred pounds of shell, frame, and plumbing sit there collecting leaves and taking up patio space. DemoRex removes above-ground spas and hot tubs throughout Fresno, Clovis, Sanger, and the Central Valley, from small two-person tubs to large swim spas, whether they're sitting on a concrete slab, a deck, or bare dirt.
Here's how it goes. The tub needs to be drained before removal, mostly empty is fine, and a small amount of water left in the bottom doesn't stop the job. Power gets disconnected before anything else: some tubs simply unplug, while others are hardwired on a dedicated 220v circuit, and that disconnection can be handled by us or by your electrician, whichever you prefer. From there, the tub either comes out whole or gets cut into sections. Most backyards don't have a path wide enough to walk a full hot tub through, so cutting it down is the normal method, not a complication. Shell, frame, plumbing, cover, steps, and any equipment all leave together on the same trip.
Access is the part people worry about and shouldn't. Standard side gates, tight walkways, tubs up on decks or tucked into patio corners, we cut and carry to fit the path available. What's left behind is the footprint the tub was hiding: a clean slab, an open deck, or a patch of dirt ready to become part of the yard again.
A note on which service you need: this covers above-ground, freestanding tubs. If your spa is built into the ground or surrounded by rock and masonry work, that's a demolition project, and we handle those too.
Getting it scheduled is simple: reach out, our estimator takes a look on-site, and you get a straightforward quote. Most above-ground tub removals are quick jobs, often gone the same day the crew arrives.
The Footprint Is Worth More Than the Tub
Whatever an unused hot tub is sitting on, a poured slab, a corner of the patio, a leveled pad of dirt, that spot is usually the best real estate in the backyard. It was chosen on purpose: level, close to the house, private. The tub stopped earning that spot years ago, and everything else that could live there. A seating area, a pergola, an outdoor table, or a new tub that actually runs is waiting on the old one to leave.
The reason it hasn't left yet is almost always the same: nobody with a truck and a free Saturday can move one. They're heavier than they look, awkward in every direction, and too big for any gate. That's not a you-problem, it's a physics problem and it's solved with the right crew, the right cuts, and one trip.
