Why hot tubs aren't a normal junk job
An empty hot tub is still heavy, awkward and often boxed in by a deck, fence or gate. It's also wired for power, which is why most people don't attempt it. It's also not something the City's curbside program is set up for: San Antonio's curbside accepted list covers items like grills, carpet, fencing, furniture, large appliances, mattresses, TVs and water heaters — hot tubs aren't on it.
Before we arrive
- Have the tub drained and the power shut off at the breaker.
- Clear the path from the tub to where the trailer will park — gates, tight corners and steps matter.
- Send photos of the tub, the path and any deck or fence around it with your quote request.
Call us if you're not sure how to prepare — we'll walk you through it.
Pricing
Hot tubs are quoted one at a time. Our standard pricing starts at $95 for a single item and $345 for a half trailer, and a hot tub's price depends on its size, how it's accessed and whether any dismantling is needed. You'll have the firm number before we start.
| Size | Starting at | Typical job |
|---|---|---|
| Single Item | from $95 | One large item — curbside or in-home pickup, sweep-up included. |
| Half Trailer | from $345 | Up to half of our 16′ × 7′ × 4′ dump trailer. The usual choice for garage, room and furniture cleanouts. |
| Full Trailer | from $595 | A full trailer load (about 448 cubic feet) — construction debris, estate and property cleanouts. |
Final price depends on volume. You'll always get a clear quote before we start — no hidden fees.
Built into a deck?
If the tub is set into or surrounded by a deck, we can quote the demolition with the removal — see shed, deck and light demolition.
Where it goes
Hot tubs are taken to licensed disposal and recycling facilities. Nothing is left behind and nothing is dumped.
