Shed removal in Reno

Dominic handles shed removal for Reno yards and the rest of the Reno-Tahoe area, emptying an old shed out and then taking the building itself down. Text a photo to (775) 316-7470. A shed job runs in two stages at one spot. First the contents come out, the garden tools, the boxes, the old lumber, the cans on the shelf. Then the walls, roof and floor come apart and leave in pieces. The job ends with the shed itself on the trailer, not just what was inside it.

Maybe the shed has leaned in the back corner of the yard for years, or it came with the house still full. You don't have to empty it or take anything down first, since both are part of the job. Tell him whether it's a metal kit shed or a wood one when you send pictures. When the job is a garage or a bigger outbuilding, the garage and shed demolition page covers that kind of teardown.

Often the shed is the last piece of a bigger clear-out. The garage is done and the yard is raked. The shed is what's left. If there are branches or leaves to go as well, get them in the picture and he'll price the shed and the yard mess together. Sheds that sat for years can also hold a few things he won't haul, so it helps to look inside before you text.

From the full list of what goes on the truck: outdoor structures and concrete.

What comes out of a shed removal job?

Two piles come out of every shed job, the things stored inside and the shed itself. The inside pile is whatever collected over the years. Rakes and shovels with cracked handles, flower pots, boxes nobody has opened since the last move, shelving and a workbench bolted to the wall. He and his helper, Jake, carry all of it out.

The second pile is the building. A metal kit shed comes down as thin panels and a light frame. A wood shed is heavier work, with siding, roof sheathing, rafters, a door on hinges and often a floor built on joists. The walls and the junk from inside leave together in the same load. What stays behind is the spot where the shed stood. Maybe you want that corner back for a garden bed or just open yard.

What won't go out with an old shed?

Propane tanks stay behind. Sheds tend to collect old grill tanks and spare cylinders, and those have to stay off his load. The same goes for asbestos, for medical or biohazard waste and for anything carrying bed bugs or other pests. What he does take is laid out in the rundown of what he will haul.

Pests matter on a shed job. If mice or other critters have been living in the boxes, say so when you send pictures, since those boxes stay. If you think any part of the shed itself contains asbestos, mention that too, and that part stays put. Leftover paint is different. Half-empty paint cans can stay right on the shelf, since he brings them to Greymar. Get any propane tank out of there before he arrives.

How much does shed removal cost in Reno?

Shed jobs start at $80, and above that the price rides on how much truck space the walls, roof and stored stuff need. A small metal shed with a few boxes takes less space than a framed wood shed packed to the door, so the two price differently. Pictures of the outside and a shot through the open door give him most of what he needs. If the shed is large or the pictures leave him guessing, he'll drive over and size it up before naming a price.

Either way, the price covers the whole job. His rule is plain. His quote stands unless the shed and its contents turn out bigger than your pictures showed. That price already pays for the carrying, the drive and the disposal, with dump fees included. Customers ask how he charges more than anything else, so it's worth having it spelled out.

Where does an old shed go after it comes down?

A torn-down shed splits three ways. Anything still usable from the shelves heads to Goodwill. Steel walls and the frame of a kit shed get recycled at a scrap yard. Rotted boards and old shingles end up at the Carson City landfill or the Stead landfill. Point out anything you want donated before loading starts, like a solid workbench, a bike or tools that still work.

The scrap yard takes more than the walls. Old wire shelving and broken metal tools go there too, to be recycled. Metal hinges and shelf brackets go with the steel. Whatever is left is real trash. Rotted plywood, broken siding and the junk nobody would want go to the landfill. The floor, if it's wood on joists, usually goes in that last pile.

How does a shed come down and get loaded out?

The contents come out first, then the shed comes down in sections, and Dominic and Jake carry every piece out to the trailer. Your shed can sit at the far fence line and you still won't carry a single board to the street. Before anything comes apart, he walks you through how the job will go.

Booking is short. Pictures of the shed come first. From those he prices it, or he sets up a visit when seeing it in person makes more sense. Once you say yes to the price, he picks a day and a time with you. He shows up on time for it. A shed out past town works too, since he'll drive up to 75 miles, and the list of towns he works in goes far beyond Reno.
