## That Hot Tub Has Been Sitting There Long Enough

It sounded like a great idea ten years ago. Now it is cracked, green, and taking up half the deck. Every homeowner in Queen Anne, Ballard, and West Seattle has the same story — the hot tub that nobody uses anymore but nobody wants to deal with removing.

Junk B Gone has been removing hot tubs across Seattle since 1989. We have taken out hundreds of them — freestanding Jacuzzis on patios, built-ins sunk into cedar decks, and swim spas that weigh more than a compact car. We bring the crew, the saws, and the truck.

## We Know Seattle Hot Tubs

We have cut apart hot tubs wedged between a house and a fence with 30 inches of clearance. We have pulled built-ins out of cedar decks on Mercer Island and patched the hole with plywood so nobody falls through. We have hauled 800-pound swim spas out of Magnolia backyards where the only access was a staircase down a hillside.

After we remove it, the shell gets separated from the foam insulation. Metal pumps and copper wiring go to scrap recycling. The acrylic shell gets processed separately. Nothing sits in your yard — we clean the site and haul every piece.

Three things to know before we arrive:

Flip the breaker at the sub-panel — we handle everything else.

Drain the water if you can (into a sewer cleanout, not the yard).

Make sure we have at least 36 inches of clearance through the gate.

## Types of Hot Tubs We Remove

Freestanding, built-in, swim spas — we have seen them all. Here is what Seattle [homeowners](https://mrjunkbgoneseattle.com/homeowners/) call us for:

### Freestanding Hot Tubs

The most common type. Usually 300-500 lbs, sitting on a patio or deck. We tip, dolly, and load — or cut if it will not fit through the gate.

### Built-In Hot Tubs

Sunk into a deck or patio surround. We disconnect, extract from the frame, and patch the hole with plywood.

### Swim Spas

Much larger than standard hot tubs. 800+ lbs. We almost always cut these into sections rather than use a crane.

### Jacuzzi Brand Tubs

Jacuzzi, Caldera, Hot Spring, Sundance, Master Spas — we have removed every brand made.

### Inflatable & Portable Spas

Intex, Bestway, Coleman — these are lighter but still bulky. We deflate, drain, and haul.

### Cedar Hot Tubs

Wooden barrel-style tubs. These come apart in staves. We disassemble and haul the wood.

### Hot Tub Covers

Waterlogged covers can weigh 200+ lbs. We take the cover along with the tub.

### Hot Tub Pads & Bases

[Concrete pads](https://mrjunkbgoneseattle.com/concrete-removal-seattle/), foam bases, gravel beds. We can remove the base too if you want a clean slate.

### Hot Tub Electrical

We disconnect at the tub. For main panel work, we recommend a licensed electrician — we will tell you upfront.

### Sawzall, Not Crane

We specialize in manual disassembly. This saves Seattle homeowners $1,500+ compared to crane rental — and we can usually get the job done in 2-3 hours.

### Site Cleanup Included

We do not just haul the tub. We clean up foam, screws, wood fragments, and debris. Your yard or deck looks like nothing was ever there.

## Why Seattle Trusts Us With Their Hot Tubs

Last month we removed a 1997 Sundance spa from a backyard in Wallingford. The gate was 28 inches wide, the tub weighed 450 pounds, and the homeowner was convinced we would need a crane. We had it cut into sections and loaded in under two hours — no crane, no damage to the fence, and we patched the deck where it sat.

We are not a [franchise](https://mrjunkbgoneseattle.com/junk-b-gone-vs-1800-got-junk-which-seattle-junk-removal-service-is-best-for-you/) with an 800 number. We are your neighbors — a local Seattle company since 1989 with the same crews you will see every time. [Our pricing](https://mrjunkbgoneseattle.com/junk-removal-pricing-seattle/) is transparent: the quote covers disconnection, disassembly, hauling, and site cleanup. No surprise fees if the tub turns out to be heavier than expected.

Truck size matters

## A bigger truck. Fewer trips. More for your money.

One of our trucks next to two cars.

A "full load" only means something if you know the size of the truck. Our beds run 12 to 16 feet long, all 8 feet wide and 5 feet tall, and we often load above the rails and tarp it down. For the biggest jobs we send our 24-foot truck.

More capacity means most projects fit in one load. No second trip charges, no "we'll have to come back tomorrow." You get the same work done for less.

## Hot Tub Removal Frequently Asked Questions

How much does hot tub removal cost in Seattle?

Our minimum is $99. Every job is quoted on-site before we start — the number we give you is the number you pay. No hidden fees. Call [(206) 722-4285](tel:2067224285) or [text us a photo](sms:2067224285) for a free estimate.

Do you need to use a crane?

Almost never. We specialize in manual disassembly with reciprocating saws. This saves you $1,500+ compared to crane rental and is faster for most Seattle yards.

How long does hot tub removal take?

Most jobs take 2–3 hours from arrival to cleanup. Larger swim spas or complex built-ins may take 3–4 hours.

Do I need to drain the hot tub first?

Ideally yes — drain into a sewer cleanout, not your yard. If you cannot drain it, we will handle it on-site. Just flip the breaker at the sub-panel before we arrive.

What happens to the hot tub after removal?

We separate the acrylic shell from the foam insulation and metal components. Copper wiring and pumps go to scrap recycling. The shell is processed separately. We recycle as much as possible.

Can you remove a hot tub that seems impossible to get out?

That is our specialty. We have removed tubs through 28-inch gates, off hillside decks, and from backyards with no vehicle access. If it got in there somehow, we can get it out.
