Hot Tub Removal in Janesville, WI

Updated

Short answer

Hot tub removal costs $150 to $600 according to Fixr, and HomeAdvisor gives $200 to $600. LawnStarter's average is $325, with most jobs between $235 and $415. None of Rock County's municipal bulk programs is built for a hot tub, which is why this is usually a hired job.

Why the price spreads so wide

A spa is large, heavy and often sitting somewhere awkward: on a raised deck, behind a fence, or in a back yard with no gate wide enough for it. The low end of the range is an easy-access tub; the high end is a big one that takes more people and time to get out. The best way to get a real number is a photo of the tub and a photo of the path to the street.

Why municipal pickup doesn't fit

The monthly bulk pickups in Orfordville and the Town of Janesville are limited to items under 50 pounds that one person can handle, and Brodhead's clean-up days exclude construction material. The Janesville landfill takes it by weight ($46 per ton, $20 minimum for a truck or trailer), but you still have to get it onto a trailer (landfill fees).

Before the crew arrives

  • Drain the tub if you can.
  • Have the power to it shut off and disconnected. A junk removal crew hauls; it is not an electrician.
  • Tell them about steps, a deck, a fence or a slope between the tub and the driveway.
  • Ask whether the cover, steps and any gazebo or surround are included in the price.
