Fire pit removal across the Golden Isles.
Steel bowls, cast-iron pits, chimineas, and built-up stone. We grab the portable ones and take the built ones apart course by course.
Part of our Light Demolition service
Fire pits cover a wider range than most people expect when they call. On one end is a portable steel bowl or a cast-iron pit sitting on the patio — that’s a quick grab, two hands and it’s on the truck. On the other end is a fire pit somebody built into the backyard out of pavers, brick, or stacked stone, and that one isn’t leaving in a single lift.
A built-up fire pit comes apart the way it went together: course by course. We take the top ring off, work down through the layers, and load the block, brick, or stone as we go. The material is heavy and there’s usually more of it than the finished pit lets on, because a good portion of the weight is sitting at the base. We haul all of it, including the gravel or sand fill if that’s part of the build.
Chimineas are their own thing. The clay ones are heavy and brittle — they crack if you handle them like they’re sturdy, so we move them slow and deliberate. The cast-iron versions are simply heavy, no fragility to worry about, just weight. Either way, before any of this goes on the truck, the ash has to be cold and the fire fully out. We don’t load a pit that’s still warm, and a “last night’s fire” that feels cool on top can still be live underneath — so we check.
What we haul
Specifically, what we take for fire pit removal.
- Portable steel and cast-iron fire pits and fire bowls
- Clay and cast-iron chimineas
- Paver, brick, and stacked-stone fire pits (taken apart course by course)
- Prefab and free-standing outdoor fireplaces (non-structural)
- Gas and propane fire tables (tank disconnected and removed separately)
- Surrounding gravel, sand, or paver fill from the build
How we work
How we actually handle it.
The portable jobs are the fast ones. A steel bowl or a cast-iron pit on a patio is a grab-and-go — we lift it, carry it out, done. Chimineas take a little more care because of the weight and, with clay, the fragility, but they’re still single-item work most of the time.
The built fire pits are where the time goes. A paver or stacked-stone pit gets disassembled rather than tipped over — we take it apart in reverse, course by course, and load the material as we work down. There’s real weight in a built pit, more than the height suggests, because so much of the mass is in the base courses and any fill underneath. We carry it out and load it; we don’t leave a pile of loose block on your patio.
The one thing we set before we touch anything: the ash has to be cold and out. Wood ash holds heat far longer than it looks, and we won’t put a pit on the truck with anything live in it. If you can soak it down a day ahead, that’s the safest play. If you’re not sure it’s out, leave it and tell us — we’d rather check than load a live coal next to everything else.
Pricing
How pricing works.
Fire pit pricing tracks with what kind of pit it is and how much material leaves with it. A portable bowl or a chiminea is the light end — one item, one carry. A built-up paver or stacked-stone pit is heavier work, because it has to come apart by hand and the block, brick, or stone all gets loaded and hauled. The size of the build and the amount of fill underneath move the number more than anything else.
Tell us what you’ve got — portable or built, and roughly how big — or send a photo, and we’ll give you a real number. We don’t pretend a small steel bowl and a four-foot stone pit are the same job, so we don’t price them the same.

The honest exceptions
What we won’t take — for this item.
A short, honest list of edge cases we either won’t take or want to discuss before we show up. When in doubt, call us — we’ll walk through it before scheduling.
- Mortared masonry outdoor fireplaces or chimneys - a mortared, built-in masonry structure is structural masonry work for a licensed mason or contractor, not a standard haul
- Any pit with hot ash, live coals, or a fire that isn’t fully out and cold - soak it down ahead of time, or leave it and tell us
- Breaking up or hauling out a large concrete footing or pad under the pit - that’s outside a standard junk-removal scope
