Swing set removal: an access checklist
A clear path matters as much as the size of the playset. Record the gate width, slope, overhead obstacles, and anchors.
Make a simple inventory
Take one wide photo and several close views. Include the base, attachments, damage, and the route to the street. Note approximate dimensions rather than guessing how many loads the debris will make.
Check connections and boundaries
Look for electrical wiring, lights, water lines, and attachments to the house. If a connection may be live, stop and ask the appropriate qualified professional. Check ownership and permission before work near a shared fence or neighboring property.
Questions to bring to a provider
- Is teardown included, or only pickup of material already dismantled?
- Are posts, anchors, footings, and contents included?
- Who checks permits and utility disconnections for this address?
- How will the crew move material through the property?
- What condition will the area be left in?
