How Our Demolition Service Works —
Simple, Clear, No Surprises
We’ve kept our process straightforward on purpose. You shouldn’t have to chase a contractor for answers or wonder what happens next.
Here’s exactly how a demolition job goes with us from first call to clean property.
1. You Reach Out and Describe the Job
Call, text, or fill out our quote form. Tell us what you need removed — shed, garage, deck, interior space — and where you’re located. If you have photos, send them along. The more detail you give us upfront, the faster we can turn around an accurate quote.
2. We Give You a Clear, Upfront Quote
No vague estimates, no “we’ll figure it out when we get there.” We give you a firm quote that covers the teardown, labour, and debris removal. If a permit is required for your project, we’ll tell you that upfront too — before you’ve committed to anything.
3. We Show Up and Get It Done
Our crew arrives on the scheduled date, sets up safely, and gets to work. We protect surrounding areas of your property, work efficiently, and communicate with you throughout the job if anything comes up. Most small demolition jobs in Durham Region are completed in a single day.
4. We Clean Up and You're Done
When the structure is down, we load every piece of debris, haul it away, and do a final site cleanup. You’re not left with a pile of rubble in your yard. When we leave, the area is clean, level, and ready for whatever comes next — whether that’s new construction, landscaping, or just extra space.
Do You Need a Permit for Demolition in Ontario?
Here's What to Know.
This is one of the first questions homeowners ask before booking a demolition job — and it’s a smart one. Permit requirements vary depending on what’s being demolished and where you live. Here’s a plain-English breakdown so you’re not going in blind.
When You Typically Need a Permit
In most municipalities across Durham Region — including Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, and Oshawa — you'll need a demolition permit for:
- Tearing down a full structure (garage, house, large outbuilding)
- Any demolition connected to a building permit for new construction
- Removing load-bearing walls or structural elements inside a home
- Demolition of structures over a certain square footage (varies by municipality)
Permit requirements and fees vary by city. The permit is typically the homeowner’s responsibility to obtain, but we’re happy to walk you through the process and point you toward the right municipal contacts for your area.
When You Typically DON'T Need a Permit
For many of the most common residential demolition jobs, no permit is required:
- Small shed removal (under a certain square footage — check with your municipality)
- Deck or porch removal
- Interior cosmetic demolition (removing non-structural walls, flooring, cabinets)
- Concrete patio or sidewalk removal
IMPORTANT NOTE: Always verify with your local municipality before starting any demolition work. Rules change and vary by city. If you’re not sure, call us and we’ll help you figure out the right next step.
Demolition AND Debris Removal —
We Handle Both So You Don't Have To
A lot of demolition companies will tear something down and leave the debris in a pile for you to deal with. That’s not how we work. When you hire Bins in the 6ix for demolition, debris removal is part of the job. We load it, haul it, and dispose of it responsibly — you don’t pay a separate company or rent a separate bin.
If you’re a contractor or homeowner running a larger project that needs BOTH a demolition crew AND a bin rental, we offer both in-house. You deal with one company, one invoice, and one point of contact. That alone saves most customers hours of coordination and hundreds of dollars in overlapping fees.
Why Homeowners in Durham Region Choose Us for Demolition
We're Fully Insured — And That Actually Matters
Demolition without proper insurance is a liability nightmare for the homeowner. If something goes wrong on an uninsured job on your property, you could be on the hook. Every job we do is fully insured, and we're happy to provide proof of insurance before we start. Don't hire a demo crew that can't show you their coverage.
Small Jobs Are Welcome Here
A lot of demolition companies aren't interested in a single shed removal or a deck teardown — the job is too small to bother with. We built our business on exactly these kinds of jobs. No project is too small for us to show up on time, do it right, and leave your property clean.
We Give You a Real Quote — Not a Guessing Game
Some contractors give vague estimates and then adjust the price once they're on site. We quote the full job upfront — labour, equipment, and debris removal all included. What we quote is what you pay, with zero exceptions unless something genuinely unexpected comes up and we discuss it with you before continuing.
We're Local and We Know These Neighbourhoods
Our yard is in Pickering. We work in Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Scarborough, Markham, and Stouffville regularly. We're not a Toronto company sending someone an hour away. We're your neighbours — and we work like it.

Demolition Questions — Answered Honestly
Shed demolition pricing in Durham Region depends on the size of the shed, the materials it’s made from, and whether there’s a concrete pad that needs to come up as well. Small wood sheds can often be removed for a few hundred dollars. Larger structures, metal sheds, or sheds with concrete bases cost more. The best way to get an accurate number is to call or text us at 647-779-8385 with a few photos — we can usually give you a ballpark on the same call and a firm quote quickly after seeing the job.
Garage demolition pricing in Ontario varies depending on the size of the garage, whether it’s attached or detached, the construction materials, and what’s being done with the debris. A standard detached single-car garage teardown including debris removal typically ranges from several hundred to a couple thousand dollars depending on complexity. We provide free, no-obligation quotes — call or text us and send photos if you can. We’ll turn around a firm price fast.
It depends on the size of the shed and your municipality’s specific rules. In many cases, small sheds under a certain square footage don’t require a demolition permit in Durham Region municipalities. However, if the shed is large, has utilities connected, or is being demolished as part of a larger construction project, a permit may be required. We recommend calling your local building department to confirm before we start work. We’re happy to help point you toward the right contact.
Most small residential demolition jobs — sheds, decks, hot tubs — are completed in a single day, often in just a few hours. Garage demolitions typically take one full day. Larger interior demolition projects or jobs involving concrete removal may take two to three days. We give you a realistic timeline when we quote the job so you know exactly what to expect and can plan around it.
Yes — always. Debris removal is included in every demolition job we do. We load everything, haul it away, and dispose of it responsibly. We don’t tear something down and leave a pile for you to deal with. When we’re done, your property is clean.
Yes. Interior demolition is something we do carefully and deliberately. Before we start, we identify which walls and structures are load-bearing and which aren’t. We use proper containment methods to limit dust and debris spread, and we protect floors, doorways, and adjacent rooms from damage. If you’re gutting a kitchen or bathroom before a renovation, we work cleanly and efficiently so your contractor can start their work as soon as we’re done.
Yes — fully insured for every job we take on. We carry general liability insurance that covers demolition work on residential properties across Ontario. If you’d like to see proof of insurance before we start, just ask and we’ll provide it. We think it’s completely reasonable to ask — you should always verify insurance before letting any contractor work on your property.
Yes. Hot tub and spa removal is one of the more common jobs we get called for — they’re heavy, awkward, and most homeowners have no idea how to get rid of them. We dismantle the unit, disconnect it properly, haul everything away, and leave the area clean. If your hot tub has electrical or plumbing connections that need to be disconnected first, let us know when you call and we’ll factor that into the quote and scheduling.
Yes. We service Toronto, Scarborough, and the broader GTA in addition to our core Durham Region area. Our yard is in Pickering, which gives us quick access to Scarborough and East York. Availability may vary for farther Toronto locations — call or text us at 647-779-8385 and we’ll confirm if we can service your address and give you a delivery or project timeline.
Absolutely — and many customers do exactly this. If you’re doing a renovation that includes both demolition work and ongoing debris as the reno progresses, having a bin on site makes it easy to keep throwing junk in as you go. We offer both services in-house, so you only deal with one company. Ask about bundling your demolition with a bin rental when you call for your quote.
