Partially disassembled wooden backyard play set ready for haul-away

About Our Swing Set Removal Service

Kids outgrow swing sets, but the swing set doesn't go away on its own. Oak City Hauling provides full swing set and playset removal services across Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Wake Forest, Holly Springs, and the Triangle. We disassemble, load, and haul away the entire structure — wood, metal, hardware, slides, and all.

Large cedar and redwood playsets are the most common jobs we handle. These structures weigh hundreds of pounds when assembled and require power tools, muscle, and a plan to take apart safely. Our crew has the equipment and experience to disassemble even the largest backyard play structures efficiently. We remove swing beams, climbing walls, slides, clubhouse sections, and sandbox frames.

Metal swing sets are faster to remove but still require cutting, unbolting, and careful handling to avoid damaging your yard or fence. We also pull out concrete footings and ground anchors when accessible, and backfill the holes so your yard is ready for whatever comes next — a new patio, a garden, or just open space.

The Triangle's suburban neighborhoods in Cary, Apex, and Wake Forest installed thousands of playsets during the COVID years. As kids age into their teens, these structures sit unused and deteriorating. Raleigh's city pickup service doesn't handle assembled structures this size, and disassembling one yourself is a full weekend project.

Wood from playsets is separated for proper disposal. Metal hardware and components go to scrap recycling. We provide upfront pricing after a quick assessment — no surprises on removal day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you remove large wooden playsets?

Yes. Large cedar and redwood playsets are our most common swing set removal job. We bring power tools and enough crew to disassemble even the biggest backyard structures safely and efficiently.

Do you remove the concrete footings?

Yes, when they're accessible. We dig out concrete footings and ground anchors, then backfill the holes so your yard is level and ready for its next use.

How long does swing set removal take?

A standard metal swing set takes about 30-60 minutes. Large wooden playsets with multiple sections take 2-4 hours depending on size and complexity.

What do you do with the wood and metal?

Metal hardware goes to scrap recycling. Treated lumber is disposed of according to local regulations. Untreated wood is recycled when possible. We separate materials on-site.
