What Affects Your Hot Tub Removal Price

1. Size & Weight

A 2-person portable spa weighing 300 lbs is a simpler job than an 8-person spa weighing 900 lbs. Larger tubs require more crew members and sometimes cutting the shell into sections for removal.

2. Access

Easy access (ground level, wide gate): Standard pricing. Difficult access (elevated deck, narrow gate, no side yard, must go through house): Add $50-$200. We assess access during your quote — text photos of the tub and the path to the street.

3. Built-In vs. Portable

Portable hot tubs sit on a pad and can be moved or cut apart. Built-in tubs surrounded by decking require deck demolition first, adding time and cost. We handle both.

4. Condition

A hot tub in decent shape might be moved intact. A cracked, rotting, or structurally compromised tub gets cut into sections on-site with a reciprocating saw. Both approaches are included in our pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to remove a hot tub in Denver?

Do I need to drain the hot tub first?
Yes — drain it the night before or morning of removal. Most hot tubs have a drain valve at the bottom; connect a garden hose and direct water to a safe drainage area (lawn, storm drain). If you're unsure how to drain yours, call us and we'll walk you through it for your specific model. A full hot tub can weigh 3,000-6,000 lbs — we can't move it with water in it.
Do I need an electrician to disconnect it?
We strongly recommend it. Most hot tubs run on 240V circuits — working with live 240V wiring is dangerous and should be handled by a licensed electrician. An electrician can disconnect and cap the wires for $75-$150. If your tub runs on a standard 120V plug, you can simply unplug it yourself.
Can you remove a hot tub from a deck?
Yes. We remove hot tubs from decks, patios, rooftops, and enclosed spaces. Deck-mounted tubs may require partial deck demolition to access, which adds to the cost. We assess the situation during quoting and give you an accurate price before we start.
How long does hot tub removal take?
On-site time is typically 1-3 hours. Small portable tubs on ground level: about 1 hour. Large tubs requiring cutting and difficult access: 2-3 hours. We arrive with all tools and equipment — reciprocating saws, dollies, and a truck ready to load.
What happens to my old hot tub?
We recycle what we can: motors, pumps, heaters, and wiring go to scrap metal recyclers. The acrylic/fiberglass shell is processed at approved disposal facilities. We're working on finding better recycling options for shells — currently about 40% of a hot tub's materials can be recycled. See our hot tub recycling page for details.
Can you remove the concrete pad too?
We remove the hot tub but not the concrete pad underneath. Pad removal requires jackhammering and is typically handled by a concrete contractor. We can refer you to one if needed. Many homeowners keep the pad and repurpose it for outdoor furniture, a fire pit, or a new patio area.
Is same-day hot tub removal available?
Yes, if the tub is already drained and electrically disconnected. Call before 2pm and we can often schedule same-day removal. If you still need to drain and disconnect, we'll schedule for the next day to give you time to prep.
