Fence Removal in Florida: where we work and what we see

We serve 333 cities and towns in Florida, from Jacksonville, Miami and Tampa to the small towns in between, across South Florida, the Gulf Coast, Central Florida, the First Coast, the Panhandle, the Treasure Coast and the Space Coast.

Florida counties enforce derelict vessel rules aggressively and fines add up fast, which is why boat calls go to the front of the schedule. Every load goes to the right facility for the county it came from.

Hurricane season turns marinas into salvage yards, and every storm brings a wave of boat removals, refloating, and flooded property cleanouts.

How it works

How fence removal works in Florida

Here is how a fence removal job in Florida runs from the first call to the last sweep.

  1. 01

    Walk the line

    Mark what stays, confirm the property line, and check for buried utilities before we pull posts.

  2. 02

    Panels down

    Boards, panels, and mesh removed and stacked for the trailer.

  3. 03

    Posts and footings out

    Posts pulled with the footing, holes backfilled and tamped.

  4. 04

    Clean line

    Hardware picked up with a magnet, the line raked, and the debris hauled for recycling and disposal.

Why now

Why Florida stops putting it off

Most fence removal calls from Florida come after months of "we'll deal with it." Here is why the people who called last week were glad they did.

  • Fence installers charge a premium to remove the old fence and often want it gone before they arrive.
  • A leaning fence is a liability with a neighbor on the other side.
  • Rotten posts snap in the next wind storm.
  • Hurricane season turns marinas into salvage yards, and every storm brings a wave of boat removals, refloating, and flooded property cleanouts.

Straight talk

What fence removal does not include

Two things every fence removal customer should know before booking anyone, including us:

  • We do not install fences. Book your installer, then book us for the day before.
  • Property-line disputes are between you and the neighbor; we remove only what you own and mark.

Sound familiar?

Common fence removal situations in Florida

Every fence removal call from Florida starts with a story, and most of them sound like one of these.

  1. 01

    Installer arrives Monday

    The new fence company quoted extra to remove the old one and wants it gone before they show up.

  2. 02

    Leaning into the neighbor's yard

    Rotted posts, a lean that gets worse every storm, and a neighbor who has mentioned it twice.

  3. 03

    Opening up the yard

    The chain link went up for a dog that is no longer around, and the yard would be better without it.

  4. 04

    Sale prep

    A broken fence in the listing photos costs more than removing it.

Afterward

Where fence removal material from Florida ends up

"Where does it go?" is the right question to ask any removal company. This is our answer for Florida.

  1. 01

    Keep, donate, sell, dispose

    Every cleanout is sorted into those four piles with you or your representative before loading starts.

  2. 02

    Donation runs

    Usable furniture, kitchenware, books, and clothing go to donation partners, and we can bring back receipts for the estate.

  3. 03

    Documents and valuables

    Anything you flag is set aside and handed to you. Sensitive paperwork can be routed to a shredding service.

  4. 04

    Licensed disposal

    The remainder goes to a licensed transfer station or landfill. Nothing is dumped.

Before we arrive

How to prepare for fence removal in Florida

A few minutes before the crew arrives in Florida saves an hour on site. None of it is heavy lifting.

  • Mark the sections that stay with tape or flags.
  • Confirm the fence is yours and on your side of the line.
  • Call 811 or your utility locator if posts are near buried lines; we will not dig until it is clear.

Equipment

What fence removal in Florida takes

The reason this job gets turned down by other companies is usually equipment. This is what we bring to Florida.

  1. 01

    Multiple loads, one day

    Trailers and trucks staged so a whole-house cleanout keeps moving instead of waiting on a dumpster swap.

  2. 02

    Sorting and staging

    Tables, bins, and labels so keep, donate, sell, and dispose stay separate all day.

  3. 03

    Protection

    Floor runners, door-frame guards, and corner protection for homes that are about to be listed.

Questions

Fence Removal in Florida: your questions

Do you pull the concrete footings?

Yes. Posts come out with the footing so the new fence can go in the same line.

Can you leave some sections?

Yes. Mark what stays and we remove the rest.

Do you offer same-day fence removal in Florida?

Same-day fence removal in Florida depends on that day's schedule. We keep windows open for urgent calls, and next-day is almost always available.

Are you licensed and insured for fence removal in Florida?

Yes. Lucky Hauling carries general liability and auto coverage for every job in Florida. Ask the office for a certificate of insurance and we will email it before the crew arrives.

Which areas near Florida do you cover?

All of the Florida area, including Jacksonville, Miami, Tampa and Orlando. If you are outside that, we still probably cover you; check the Florida page for the full city list.

How do I set up fence removal in Florida?

Send a few photos through the estimate form or by text. We confirm what we can take and set up the free on-site estimate, and nothing is loaded until you say yes.

Do I need to be home for fence removal in Florida?

Only for the estimate, and even that can happen by phone or text with photos from the crew. Property managers and out-of-town owners do it this way every week.

What should I do before the crew gets to Florida?

Very little. Decide what stays, point it out or tape it, and clear a path if it is easy. Set aside anything with personal data you want to keep. The crew does the rest.

Can you get it out of a tight spot in Florida?

Yes. Narrow stairs, basements, and backyards with no gate are normal. We carry it out by hand and protect the floors on the way.

What if the weather is bad on the day?

Rain does not stop most jobs. Lightning, ice, and high wind do, especially for boat lifts and tow work. If we have to move your window we tell you as early as we can and reschedule at no charge.

Where does the junk from Florida actually go?

Donatable items go to donation partners, metal and cardboard are recycled, and the rest goes to a licensed transfer station or landfill. Florida counties enforce derelict vessel rules aggressively and fines add up fast, which is why boat calls go to the front of the schedule.
