Hot tub removal in Northbrook, IL

An old hot tub is too big to move in one piece and too heavy to ignore. We cut it into sections where it stands, carry the pieces out through the gate and load them on the truck.

Before we arrive, drain the tub and switch off its power at the breaker. A hardwired tub should be disconnected by an electrician first.

  • Hot tubs and spas of any size
  • Covers and cover lifts
  • Steps and surrounds
  • Pumps, heaters and control packs
  • Inflatable and soft-sided tubs
  • Decking or a gazebo around the tub, if you want it gone

What we cannot take

Spa chemicals stay behind. Everything else around the tub can go.

  • Chemicals, including pesticides and pool chemicals
  • Asbestos, or material that may contain it
  • Propane tanks

Have one of these? Ask us and we will point you to the right drop-off.

How pricing works

Once a tub is cut down it packs flat, so it takes less of the truck than you might expect. Send a photo with a person or a door in the frame for scale, and tell us about the path to the driveway. We reply with the load size and the price.

  • Minimum load
  • Quarter truck
  • Half truck
  • Three-quarter truck
  • Full truck

Every quote includes all labor, loading, hauling and disposal fees. If you decline the quote, there is no charge. Read the full pricing guide.

A local note for Northbrook

Tell us about the route from the patio to the street: gate width, steps, slopes and how close the truck can park. Gate width decides how small we cut the sections. We remove hot tubs across Northbrook and in nearby Glenview, Deerfield and Highland Park.

Hot tub removal: common questions

Do I need to drain the hot tub?

Yes. Please drain it before we arrive, and give it a day to dry if you can.

What about the electrical connection?

Switch the tub off at the breaker. If it is hardwired, have an electrician disconnect it before the pickup.

Will it fit through my gate?

Yes. We cut the shell into sections sized for your gate and carry them out by hand.

Will you leave a mess on the patio?

No. We collect the foam and offcuts as we go and sweep the patio when we are done.

Can you remove the concrete pad too?

Our job is the tub and what surrounds it. Breaking up a pad is separate work. Ask us and we will tell you whether we can take the pieces.
