Why LoadUp

The teardown and haul handled in one visit

Dismantling an above ground pool yourself means rusted hardware, a heavy liner, and multiple dump runs. Book a pickup and your Loaders take care of the whole job.

  • Price locked before you commit

    See your price before you book and it won't change at pickup. No surprise charges once your Loaders see the size of the frame or the state of the liner.

  • Same-day availability

    Need it gone fast? Same-day pickup is available when you book before noon, so you're not waiting weeks like you would for a city bulk haul.

  • In-home, not just curbside

    Your Loaders come to your backyard, not just the curb. The pool gets broken down and loaded from wherever it sits on your property.

  • Donation & recycling first

    Metal frame components may be recycled when local options allow. Your Loaders handle disposal decisions on-site based on what's available in your area.

What to Expect

Full-service removal breakdown

Above Ground Pool disposal service details

Pricing for above ground pool removal is based on the size and configuration of the pool, the number of components being hauled away, and the access available in your backyard. Larger pools with more frame sections, a full cover, ladder, and disconnected accessories will fall toward the higher end of the range, while a smaller round pool with just the frame and liner will be on the lower end.

The pool should be fully drained before your Loaders arrive. If you have a pump, filter, or heater connected to the pool, those need to be disconnected and unplumbed by you or a professional before pickup day, but once they're free they can be included in the haul.

We accept most standard above ground pool configurations along with the components that come with them.

Above ground pool pickup typically starts around $855, though your final price depends on the size of the pool, the number of components being hauled away, and the pickup type you choose. A larger oval or rectangular pool with a cover, ladder, and disconnected pump will land toward the higher end, while a smaller round pool with just the frame and liner will be on the lower end. You'll see your price before you book, and it won't change at pickup.

Your Loaders handle the disassembly. They work through the metal frame, side walls, support posts, and hardware, then gather the liner and any other components being hauled away. You don't need to take anything apart ahead of time, though the pool does need to be fully drained before they arrive.

Yes, the pool needs to be completely drained before your Loaders arrive. Draining is your responsibility and should be done before pickup day. If you're not sure how far in advance to schedule, book once you have a clear sense of when draining will be finished so your pickup window lines up with a dry pool.

No, your Loaders do not disconnect, unwire, or unplumb pool pumps, filters, or heaters. If your pump or filter is connected or hardwired, you'll need to have it disconnected by a qualified professional before pickup day. Once it's free and unplumbed, it can be included in the haul along with the rest of the pool.

No, your Loaders do not remove concrete pads, poured decking, or any material that is permanently affixed to the ground. The service covers the above ground pool structure itself, including the frame, walls, liner, ladder, cover, and any disconnected accessories. Concrete removal is outside the scope of what your Loaders can take.

Your Loaders can work in most standard backyard conditions, but a very muddy or waterlogged base can slow things down and make the liner heavier and harder to handle. If possible, give the area a day or two to dry out after draining before your pickup window. If the ground is particularly saturated, let your Loader know when they reach out to confirm arrival details so they can plan accordingly.
