Hot Tub Removal and Disposal
That hot tub in your backyard seemed like a great idea ten years ago. Now its just taking up space, the motor doesnt work, and your tired of looking at it. Getting rid of a hot tub isnt like throwing away a couch – these things weigh anywhere from 500 to 1000 pounds empty, and they dont fit through gates or doorways.
We remove hot tubs all over Allentown, and trust me, we’ve seen some situations. Last summer we pulled out a hot tub from a backyard in West End that hadnt been used in probably 15 years. It was full of leaves, dirt, and who knows what else. The homeowner had no idea how to get rid of it, so it just sat there. We had it demolished and hauled away in about three hours.
How Much Does Hot Tub Removal Cost?
Hot tub removal cost depends on the size of the hot tub, where it is located, how difficult it is to access, and whether it needs to be cut apart before removal. A hot tub sitting in an open area is usually easier to remove than one built into a deck, placed in a tight backyard, or surrounded by obstacles.
The best way to get an accurate price is to send photos or schedule a free estimate. Helpful photos include the full hot tub, the access path, stairs or gates, and any deck or enclosure around the unit.
Total Hauling can review the job, explain the removal process, and provide a clear estimate before work begins.
Hot Tub Removal Made Simple
Removing a hot tub is not just a matter of lifting it and hauling it away. Many hot tubs need to be disconnected, cut into smaller pieces, carried through a yard or narrow access path, and loaded for disposal. Total Hauling handles the heavy lifting and removal process so you do not have to rent equipment, borrow a truck, or risk injury trying to move it yourself.

Our Hot Tub Removal Services
Couch and Sofa Removal Allentown
Most hot tubs are too big to move in one piece. We have to demolish them on site, which means cutting them into manageable pieces that we can carry out. We bring saws, tools, and everything needed to break down your hot tub safely. The shell gets cut up, the equipment gets disconnected, and we sort everything for proper disposal. Some parts can be recycled, some cant, and we handle all of that.
Jacuzzi Removal Services
Jacuzzi is actually a brand name, but people use it to mean any hot tub or spa. We remove all types – indoor Jacuzzis, outdoor spas, portable models, built-in units. The process is pretty much the same regardless of the brand. We drain it if its still got water in it, disconnect the electrical, demolish the unit, and haul everything away. We've done jacuzzi removal in basements, sunrooms, decks, patios, you name it.
Spa Disposal Allentown PA
Whether you call it a spa, hot tub, or jacuzzi, the disposal process requires special handling. These things have electrical components, plumbing, insulation, and acrylic or fiberglass shells. You cant just toss them in a dumpster. We make sure everything gets disposed of according to Allentown regulations. The frame and metal parts get scrapped, the shell gets processed separately, and we handle all the logistics.
Above Ground Hot Tub Removal
Above ground hot tubs are the most common type we deal with. They sit on a deck, patio, or concrete pad. The tricky part is usually getting them out of the backyard. Most people have fences with gates that are way too narrow for a hot tub to fit through. Thats why we demolish them first. We cut them into pieces small enough to carry through your gate and load onto our truck. No damage to your fence, deck, or landscaping.
In-Ground Hot Tub Demolition
In-ground hot tubs are more complicated because there literally built into your deck or patio. We have to carefully demolish the unit without damaging the surrounding structure. Sometimes the deck has to come apart partially to get the hot tub out, and we can help with that too. One job we did in East Allentown had a hot tub built into a wooden deck that was 10 feet off the ground. We had to lower pieces down carefully so nothing got damaged.
Why Choose Our Service
We've been doing hot tub removal in the Lehigh Valley for years. We know what were doing, we bring the right tools, and we dont leave a mess. Some companies will quote you one price and then add fees when they show up. We dont do that. The price we give you is the price you pay. No surprises, no hidden charges.
Important: Hot tubs have electrical connections that need to be properly disconnected. If your not comfortable shutting off the power, we can coordinate with an electrician or wait for you to have it done before we start the demolition.
Our Hot Tub Removal Process
First thing we do is drain the hot tub if it still has water in it. A full hot tub can weigh several thousand pounds, and your not moving that. Once its drained, we disconnect any electrical or plumbing connections. Then comes the demolition part – we use reciprocating saws and other tools to cut the hot tub shell into sections that are light enough to carry.
The whole process usually takes a few hours depending on the size and location. A small portable spa on a patio might take two hours. A large in-ground hot tub built into a deck could take most of a day. We give you a time estimate upfront so you know what to expect.
After we’ve demolished and removed the hot tub, we clean up the area. We sweep up any debris, haul away all the pieces, and leave your yard looking clean. Some customers want us to remove the concrete pad underneath too, and we can do that for an additional charge. Others just want the hot tub gone and they’ll deal with the pad later.
Why Allentown Homeowners Choose Our Hot Tub Removal Service
Hot tub removal isnt something most people have done before. You probably dont know what it costs or how long it takes or what the process looks like. We explain everything upfront so your not guessing. We’ve worked in every part of Allentown – from the tight backyards in Center City to the bigger properties in West Park to the older homes near Lehigh Parkway.
We’ve dealt with every possible complication. Hot tubs surrounded by fences with no gate access. Hot tubs on second-story decks. Hot tubs that are partially buried. Hot tubs so old they’re falling apart. Hot tubs so new the owner just wants to upgrade. Whatever your situation is, we’ve probably seen something similar before.
The biggest mistake people make is trying to move a hot tub themselves. Even with a bunch of friends, your probably gonna hurt somebody or damage the hot tub or your property trying to maneuver it. These things are awkward, heavy, and dont have good places to grip. We have the equipment, experience, and insurance to do it safely.
What About the Electrical and Plumbing?
Most hot tubs have dedicated electrical circuits – either 110V or 220V depending on the size. We can disconnect the hot tub itself, but we always recommend having a licensed electrician handle the actual breaker and wiring if your not comfortable with electrical work. Some hot tubs also have plumbing connections if there built into a house system. We can disconnect those too.
If your hot tub is on a timer or connected to any home automation systems, you’ll want to disconnect those before we arrive. We handle the physical removal and demolition, but we’re not electricians or plumbers, so anything that requires working inside your electrical panel should be done by a professional.
We also take other household items along with furniture. Lamps, rugs, boxes of books, old electronics, whatever you need gone. Some companies make you call separate services for different types of stuff, but we’re not that picky. If you need it out of your house, we’ll take it.
Same Day Hot Tub Removal in Allentown PA
If you need your hot tub gone quickly, we offer same-day service when our schedule allows it. Most hot tub removals are planned in advance, but sometimes people are selling there house and need the hot tub out before the inspection, or they’re having work done in the backyard and the hot tub is in the way.
Give us a call in the morning and we’ll let you know if we can come out that day. If not, we can usually schedule you within a few days. We dont make you wait weeks for an appointment like some companies do.
