Pricing
How pricing works.
What kiln removal costs here. We price by the tier your items fill, starting at $95–$150 for a 1/8 truck; a single item is quoted from a photo so we can confirm the tier before anything is loaded. The number you agree to is the number you pay, and it includes carry-out, the disposal fee and cleanup.
A kiln is priced by its size, whether it comes apart and the path out. A tabletop test kiln rides along with almost anything; a large studio kiln from the back of a house takes more hands and more room. The wheel, the shelves and the rest of the studio going with it are priced together as one visit. The minimum for any pickup is $95.

Part of our Appliance Removal service
Yes, we remove kilns and pottery wheels. A kiln usually comes up when a studio is closing — somebody is stepping away from pottery, a family is clearing a parent’s house, a downsizing leaves no room for a garage studio — and the kiln is the one piece nobody else in the family knows how to move.
Most home kilns are top-loaders: a steel jacket wrapped around soft firebrick, a hinged lid, and a control box on the side. The brick is what makes them awkward. It’s light for its size but brittle, and brick that has been fired for years crumbles at the edges, so the crew moves the kiln slow and keeps it level. Some top-loaders are built in stacked rings that lift apart, which turns one bulky piece into several manageable carries through a narrow door.
Front-loading and larger studio kilns are a bigger, more planned job, and they come out on a dolly with straps. A pottery wheel is simpler: compact, solid at the base, and usually a one- or two-person carry once the splash pan and the seat come off. Steel jackets, stands and wheel frames go to scrap recycling when it’s practical, and the old brick leaves with the load. A wheel that still spins may suit one of the donation organizations we work with — they decide what they accept, and condition matters.

How we work
Moving a Kiln Out of a Brunswick Home Studio
Where the kiln sits matters as much as the kiln. A garage with a roll-up door is the easy version. A spare room at the end of a hallway, or a studio shed across the yard, means planning the turns and laying protection on the floors before anything goes anywhere. If anything special is needed, we’ll sort it out with you when we quote.
If there’s anything else in the studio you’re not sure about, send us a few photos and tell us where it is, and we’ll tell you what it takes. The rest of the room can go on the same trip: kiln shelves and posts, the wedging table, the ware racks, the extra stools, even the old sewing machine cabinet in the corner.
A home studio in Brunswick might be a garage at one of the homes around Cate Road or a back room in a house on Blythe Island. Out of a garage with a wide door, a kiln is a quick job. Out of a back room, or across a yard from a studio shed, it’s slower, with the kiln kept level, the firebrick kept in one piece and the floors covered on the way out. The crew brings the dolly, the straps and the hands it calls for, and photos of the kiln and the path are enough for a firm price for a studio anywhere in Brunswick.
