Fence demolition
Fence coming down. Posts and all.
Privacy fence falling over, chain-link rusted through, or a line that has to go before a new one goes up. We pull panels and posts.
Typical jobs $700–$2,400
A typical backyard line: one day.
What's included
- Wood, vinyl, and chain-link
- Posts pulled with the line
- Haul-away and a clean property line
- Neighbor-side care — we don't wreck the other yard
Same-visit add-ons
- Gate hardware recycled when possible
- Old dog runs and kennel fencing
Size it. Then send photos.
The range is honest. Photos lock the number. Concrete, buried debris, and surprise contents move it.
Ballpark · one work day
$1,025 – $1,675
120 linear ft of 6-ft wood fence
- Posts come out with the fence. We don't jackhammer pads or patios.
- This is a ballpark. Photos lock the real number.

Fence removal prices in the Twin Cities

Minnesota permits for tearing it down — not building it
Removing a structure is not the same as building one. Many Twin Cities cities do not require a permit to take down a residential deck, fence, or shed. Some do. The city always wins over a blog post — including this one.
Should you tear it down yourself?
You can demo a small platform with a pry bar and a friend. Most Twin Cities decks and fence lines are not that job. Here's the line between a Saturday project and a trip to urgent care.
