How our New Zealand shed removal service works
Send us a couple of photos of the structure and your postcode, and we'll come back with a written fixed price — usually within 24 hours. On the booking date an insured crew arrives with their own tools and vehicle, hand-dismantles the shed, greenhouse or outbuilding, separates timber, metal, glass and felt for recycling, then sweeps the ground clean before leaving. Bases, decking and concrete slabs can be broken out and removed in the same visit.

Common questions
Do you cover my town in New Zealand?
We work across all 83 locations listed on this page, plus the surrounding villages and suburbs. If your town isn't listed, send us your postcode and we'll confirm coverage — we usually can.
How long does a shed removal take?
A standard 6x8ft timber or metal shed is normally dismantled, loaded and cleared within two to three hours. Larger workshops, structures with concrete bases, or jobs with long carry distances can take most of a day.
Do I need to empty the shed first?
It helps and keeps the price down, but it isn't essential. Tell us what's inside when you request a quote and we'll include clearing the contents. Hazardous items such as asbestos sheeting need a licensed specialist and are quoted separately.
What happens to the materials?
Everything goes to licensed transfer stations where timber, metal, glass and hardcore are separated. Over 85% of what we collect is recycled rather than landfilled, and reusable timber is sometimes rehomed.
How do I get a price?
Use the quote form on any location page or send photos with your postcode. You'll get a written fixed quote by email, typically within 24 hours, with no obligation to book.
