When it comes to transforming your home, yard, or commercial space, sometimes the first step isn’t adding something new—it’s getting rid of the old. At Ohio Junk Force, we specialize in light demolition and specialty junk removal in Cleveland, Akron, and across Northeast Ohio. From shed removal to hot tub demolition, we handle the heavy lifting so you can enjoy a fresh, clutter-free space.
We’re your hardworking neighbors who show up on time, treat your property like our own, and leave your space looking brand new. Whether you’re cleaning out a rental, remodeling a kitchen, or tearing down an old fence, Ohio Junk Force is ready to help.
What Is Light Demolition?
Light demolition is the safe removal of small structures or fixtures without the need for heavy equipment or construction permits. It includes projects like:
- Shed demolition and removal
- Hot tub breakdowns
- Deck or fence removal
- Small interior demolition (cabinets, drywall, vanities)
- Playset teardown
Our team is trained to safely dismantle and remove unwanted structures, all while minimizing disruption to your property. We bring the tools, haul away the debris, and leave no mess behind.
Light demo services are perfect for homeowners prepping for renovations, landlords clearing out damaged units, or property managers getting ready for new tenants.
Unlike full-scale construction demolition, light demo is cost-effective, quick to complete, and can often be scheduled within 24–48 hours. There’s no need to worry about permits or inspectors—we get in, get the job done safely, and get out without disrupting your schedule.
Let’s break down a few popular light demolition jobs we handle in Cleveland and Akron:
- Shed Removal: Old wooden or metal sheds often become rusty, leaky, or infested with pests. We dismantle and haul them away piece-by-piece, clearing space for new storage or landscaping.
- Deck Tear-Outs: If your deck is sagging, rotting, or outdated, we can remove the boards, supports, and steps while preserving the surrounding landscaping.
- Hot Tub Demolition: These heavy beasts can be a pain to move. We cut them down with precision tools, disconnect electrical components, and dispose of everything properly.
Fence Removal: Chain-link, wooden, or vinyl fencing can wear out over time. We remove fencing, posts, and any embedded concrete footers—leaving the yard ready for your next upgrade.

That means your old stuff might find a new home instead of ending up in a dump.
We also aim to reduce our carbon footprint by streamlining routes and recycling everything from scrap metal and electronics to wood and cardboard. If an item can be re-homed or reused, we’ll make sure it happens.
