What Does a Spa Removal Involve? 

There are several key steps to a spa removal, including steps we may need you to take before we can remove your spa. These steps include:

• Removal preparation: If you can, please have the power and plumbing disconnected before your scheduled time. If you need help with this, just let us know, and we’ll advise or assist you however we can.

• Dismantling: Our expert team can remove spas from even the trickiest of locations. We’ll keep the mess to a minimum as we remove any skirting and separate the shell from its frame and disconnect the pump, heater and filtration system. For large or built-in spas, we may need to cut the unit down into sections.

• Hauling: Now that the hard parts are done, you can leave the rest to us. We’ll do all the heavy lifting to get your spa and any other parts onto one of our trucks. We’ll also do a full clean and sweep so the space is left entirely clean and safe for you and anyone else in your home.

• Disposal/Relocation: Our team has intimate knowledge of proper waste collection and disposal regulations. No matter what material your spa was made of, we’ll make sure it goes to the right processing facility for recycling or disposal.

If any part of the removal process requires tools for cutting or similar adjustments, we’ll be sure to include the costs in your initial estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to the spa?

After we’ve removed your spa from your home, we’ll dispose of it in the most legally compliant and environmentally friendly way possible. Typically, this means bringing it to a licensed waste facility where it is dismantled for recycling to minimise the amount of parts that end up in a landfill.

Can you remove a spa from a tight or enclosed space? 

Yes, our expert team is fully capable of removing a spa from a tight or enclosed space. Typically, we will either use professional lifting equipment like a hiab, or dismantle the spa by cutting it into smaller, more manageable pieces.

Do I need to disconnect the spa’s power/plumbing myself?

Yes, before we can remove or dismantle your appliance, you will need to ensure the plumbing and power are no longer connected to it. If you need help with this process, just give us a call, and we can guide you through it.

How many people does it take to dismantle and move a hot tub? 

The number of people it would take to dismantle a hot tub depends on the tub itself, but typically around 4-6 people will need to be involved to safely move a hot tub.

However, we don’t recommend trying to DIY a spa removal. Not only may you lack the expertise, but once you’ve finally disconnected and dismantled your tub, you will now need a vehicle to transport it.

Spare yourself and your friends the struggle. Call 1300 Rubbish to handle your spa disposal needs.

Is 1300 Rubbish insured?

Yes, at 1300 Rubbish, our drivers are fully insured and our team has public liability coverage.

Do you recycle spas?

While we do not recycle the spas ourselves, we will take your old spas and hot tubs to the most applicable waste management facility. That way, you can rest easy knowing your old spa is being safely recycled in the most eco-friendly way possible.

How much does it cost to remove a spa?

The exact cost of bathtub or spa removals can vary depending on multiple factors, including:

• Size: A larger spa can be more difficult to dismantle and store, which could affect the total price of your estimate.

• Spa type: Some types of spas, such as in-ground spas or jacuzzis, may be more difficult to uninstall than others, causing a price increase.

• Accessibility: If a spa cannot be easily reached, we may need specialist assistance and equipment to remove it. This will increase the total estimate.

• Required equipment: If removing your spa requires specialty equipment like cutting tools or a crane, this will increase the total cost of the service.
