What Does Above-Ground Pool Removal Cost?

One of the first questions homeowners understandably ask is:

“How much does it cost to remove an above-ground swimming pool?”

There isn’t one price that applies to every project. The cost of above-ground pool removal depends on the size and construction of the pool, its location, accessibility, the amount of material that needs to be hauled away, and whether additional structures such as a surrounding deck need to be removed.

Factors that can affect your quote include:

Pricing is typically based on:

  • Pool diameter or dimensions
  • Type and construction of the pool
  • Condition of the pool
  • Location on your property
  • Distance from the pool to the driveway or street
  • Gates, fences, slopes, or other access restrictions
  • Amount of pool equipment being removed
  • Whether a surrounding deck also needs to be removed
  • Additional junk or debris you’d like hauled away

Crass Hauling provides free, no-obligation estimates so you’ll know what to expect before the job begins.

 

Help Us Give You an Accurate Quote

When completing the Free Request a Quote form at the top of this page, provide as much information about the pool and property as possible.

Please tell us the approximate size of your pool, where it’s located, how far it is from the driveway or street, and whether fences, gates, slopes, decks, or other obstacles are between the pool and our truck or trailer.

If there’s a deck around the pool, let us know its approximate size and whether you’d like us to remove it too.

The more information Jeff has about your project, the more accurately he can estimate the work involved.

 

What About Photos?

The online quote form does not currently accept photo uploads. Once you submit your request, Jeff will contact you and explain how you can send photos of the pool, surrounding area, and property access.

Photos can be especially helpful for evaluating larger pools, surrounding decks, and potential access challenges.

Professional Above-Ground Pool Removal Without the Hassle

Taking down an above-ground swimming pool may look straightforward—until you actually start pulling it apart.

What seems like a simple backyard project can quickly turn into a pile of metal walls, framing, vinyl liner, hoses, pumps, filters, ladders, decking, and other bulky materials that still need moving and disposal.

And that’s before you figure out how to get everything from the backyard to the street or driveway.

Why spend your weekend dismantling and hauling an old pool?

Crass Hauling handles the hard work for you. Our crew can dismantle the pool into manageable sections, remove the associated equipment included in your quote, load the materials, haul everything away, and clean up debris from the removal process.

It’s a convenient solution for homeowners who want the pool gone without turning old swimming pool removal into a major DIY project

Our Above-Ground Swimming Pool Removal Process

We keep the process straightforward from the initial quote through final cleanup.

1. Request Your Free Estimate

Start by completing our Get a Free Quote form or calling us.

Provide as much information as possible about the pool’s size, condition, location, accessibility, surrounding deck, and any additional items you’d like removed.

 

2. Completely Drain Your Pool Before We Arrive

Your swimming pool must be completely drained before the Crass Hauling crew arrives.

Draining the pool ahead of time lets our crew start dismantling it when we arrive and keeps the project moving efficiently.

Please plan ahead—draining time depends on the pool’s size and drainage method.

 

3. We Assess the Pool and Access

When we arrive, we’ll evaluate the pool, surrounding area, and route we’ll use to carry materials from the backyard to our truck or trailer.

We’ll also evaluate any surrounding deck that’s included in the project.

 

4. Remove Pool Equipment

Depending on your quote, we’ll remove components such as the:

  • Pump
  • Filter
  • Ladder
  • Hoses
  • Liner
  • Related pool equipment

 

5. Dismantle the Pool

Our crew will carefully disassemble the above-ground pool into manageable sections.

Instead of leaving you with a backyard full of bulky pool parts, we’ll prepare the materials for loading and removal.

 

6. Remove the Surrounding Deck, If Requested

If your project includes an attached or surrounding wooden pool deck, Crass Hauling can take care of the deck removal as part of the job.

Be sure to mention the deck when requesting your estimate so Jeff can account for the additional labor and debris.

 

7. Load and Haul Away the Pool

Once dismantled, we’ll load the pool components and other materials included in your quote and haul them away for appropriate disposal or recycling.

 

8. Clean Up the Removal Debris

Once the pool is gone, we’ll clean up debris generated by our removal work so you’re not left with pieces of the old swimming pool scattered around your yard.

 

What Isn’t Included?

It’s important to understand what remains after your above-ground pool is removed.

Crass Hauling does not remove sand, stone, or other base materials underneath the swimming pool. Landscaping, grading, seeding, or restoration of the area is also not included in our pool removal service.

Once we’re finished, you’ll have the former pool area available for whatever project you decide to tackle next.

 

    Responsible Pool Removal and Disposal

    An old swimming pool is made from many different materials, and disposing of everything isn’t as simple as putting it at the curb.

    Depending on the pool, materials may include metal framing, wall panels, vinyl liners, pumps, motors, electrical components, plastic, hoses, and wood from surrounding decks.

    As part of our pool removal and disposal process, Crass Hauling makes an effort to recycle or repurpose appropriate materials whenever practical. Materials that cannot be reused or recycled are disposed of appropriately.

    It’s part of our broader commitment to reducing unnecessary landfill waste whenever possible.

        We used Crass Hauling to move a heavy bar from our old house to our new one, and they did a great job. They showed up with their own truck, got it moved without any issues, and put it right where we wanted it. Honestly, I wish I had found them sooner because I would have had them help with some of the other stuff we struggled to move ourselves. Their price was very reasonable, they were easy to work with, and I’d definitely use them again. Highly recommend if you need something moved or hauled away!

They were thoughtful & coordinated. I will gladly use their services whenever I need it. The pricing is fair & it was such a relief to get rid of the clutter.
