Above Ground Pool Removal in Tennessee: where we work and what we see
We serve 232 cities and towns in Tennessee, from Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville to the small towns in between, across Middle Tennessee, East Tennessee, West Tennessee, the Cumberland Plateau, the Smokies and Southeast Tennessee.
Tennessee landfills accept most household debris, but tires and appliances with refrigerant need separate handling. Every load goes to the right facility for the county it came from.
Spring storms and the lake season keep marinas full and driveways cluttered, and Nashville's growth means constant property turnovers.

How it works
How above ground pool removal works in Tennessee
Here is how a above ground pool removal job in Tennessee runs from the first call to the last sweep.
- 01
Drain
If the pool still holds water we pump it out, away from foundations and the neighbor's yard.
- 02
Dismantle
Liner cut and rolled, top rails and uprights unbolted, wall panels rolled, frame stacked. Attached decks come apart the same day.
- 03
Haul and recycle
Steel and aluminum go to scrap. Liner and resin go to the transfer station. Pumps and filters are stripped for metal.
- 04
Rake and grade
Sand base removed on request, the footprint raked flat, and any leftover hardware picked up with a magnet.
Why now
Why Tennessee stops putting it off
Most above ground pool removal calls from Tennessee come after months of "we'll deal with it." Here is why the people who called last week were glad they did.
- A dead pool is a liability with kids in the neighborhood.
- Buyers see an old pool as a project, not a feature.
- Every season it sits, the liner tears further and the water goes green.
- Spring storms and the lake season keep marinas full and driveways cluttered, and Nashville's growth means constant property turnovers.

Straight talk
What above ground pool removal does not include
Two things every above ground pool removal customer should know before booking anyone, including us:
- We remove above-ground pools only. In-ground pool demolition needs permits and heavy equipment, and we can refer a contractor.
- Concrete pads under a pool are quoted separately.

Sound familiar?
Common above ground pool removal situations in Tennessee
Every above ground pool removal call from Tennessee starts with a story, and most of them sound like one of these.
- 01
The pool the kids outgrew
It has not held clean water in three summers and the liner is torn. The yard would be bigger without it.
- 02
Selling the house
The listing agent said buyers see it as work, not a feature. It comes out before the photos.
- 03
Storm damage
A wall panel buckled, the water went everywhere, and now it is a frame with a mess inside.
- 04
New patio or shed
The footprint is the best flat spot in the yard, and it is going to something you will actually use.
Afterward
Where above ground pool removal material from Tennessee ends up
"Where does it go?" is the right question to ask any removal company. This is our answer for Tennessee.
- 01
Keep, donate, sell, dispose
Every cleanout is sorted into those four piles with you or your representative before loading starts.
- 02
Donation runs
Usable furniture, kitchenware, books, and clothing go to donation partners, and we can bring back receipts for the estate.
- 03
Documents and valuables
Anything you flag is set aside and handed to you. Sensitive paperwork can be routed to a shredding service.
- 04
Licensed disposal
The remainder goes to a licensed transfer station or landfill. Nothing is dumped.
Before we arrive
How to prepare for above ground pool removal in Tennessee
A few minutes before the crew arrives in Tennessee saves an hour on site. None of it is heavy lifting.
- Drain it if you can; a garden hose siphon works over a day or two.
- Disconnect power to the pump at the breaker.
- Clear toys, furniture, and planters from around the pool and any deck attached to it.
Equipment
What above ground pool removal in Tennessee takes
The reason this job gets turned down by other companies is usually equipment. This is what we bring to Tennessee.
- 01
Multiple loads, one day
Trailers and trucks staged so a whole-house cleanout keeps moving instead of waiting on a dumpster swap.
- 02
Sorting and staging
Tables, bins, and labels so keep, donate, sell, and dispose stay separate all day.
- 03
Protection
Floor runners, door-frame guards, and corner protection for homes that are about to be listed.
Choosing a company
What to ask any above ground pool removal company
Ask us these. Ask the other companies too. The answers separate a licensed removal company from an unlicensed one.
- 01
Will they sort, or just haul?
For estates and hoarding situations, sorting is the job. Ask how they handle documents, photos, and valuables.
- 02
Can they work with an executor remotely?
Video walkthroughs, photo documentation, and a single point of contact matter when you are not local.
- 03
Are they insured?
General liability, auto, and a certificate on request. Non-negotiable in someone else's home.
- 04
Do they know when to call a specialist?
Biohazard, mold, and structural issues need licensed remediation. A good cleanout company knows where their job ends.

Questions
Above Ground Pool Removal in Tennessee: your questions
Does the pool need to be drained first?
It helps, but we can bring a pump if it isn't. Ask about it when you book.
Do you remove the sand or base underneath?
Yes, on request. Most homeowners want the sand out so the lawn can be reseeded.
What about the deck around it?
Attached decks and platforms can be removed in the same visit.
Do you offer same-day above ground pool removal in Tennessee?
Same-day above ground pool removal in Tennessee depends on that day's schedule. We keep windows open for urgent calls, and next-day is almost always available.
Are you licensed and insured for above ground pool removal in Tennessee?
Yes. Lucky Hauling carries general liability and auto coverage for every job in Tennessee. Ask the office for a certificate of insurance and we will email it before the crew arrives.
Which areas near Tennessee do you cover?
All of the Tennessee area, including Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville and Chattanooga. If you are outside that, we still probably cover you; check the Tennessee page for the full city list.
How do I set up above ground pool removal in Tennessee?
Send a few photos through the estimate form or by text. We confirm what we can take and set up the free on-site estimate, and nothing is loaded until you say yes.
Do I need to be home for above ground pool removal in Tennessee?
Only for the estimate, and even that can happen by phone or text with photos from the crew. Property managers and out-of-town owners do it this way every week.
What should I do before the crew gets to Tennessee?
Very little. Decide what stays, point it out or tape it, and clear a path if it is easy. Set aside anything with personal data you want to keep. The crew does the rest.
Can you get it out of a tight spot in Tennessee?
Yes. Narrow stairs, basements, and backyards with no gate are normal. We carry it out by hand and protect the floors on the way.
What if the weather is bad on the day?
Rain does not stop most jobs. Lightning, ice, and high wind do, especially for boat lifts and tow work. If we have to move your window we tell you as early as we can and reschedule at no charge.
Where does the junk from Tennessee actually go?
Donatable items go to donation partners, metal and cardboard are recycled, and the rest goes to a licensed transfer station or landfill. Tennessee landfills accept most household debris, but tires and appliances with refrigerant need separate handling.
