Bathroom remodels start with getting the old fixtures out, and bathtubs are often the biggest challenge. They’re heavy, awkward, and firmly attached to plumbing and walls. Cast iron tubs can weigh 300-400 pounds. Fiberglass surrounds are glued and screwed to wall studs. Getting a bathtub out of a bathroom, especially through narrow doorways and hallways, is a job most homeowners quickly realize they don’t want to tackle alone.
Even if you manage to get it out, disposal is another problem. Bathtubs don’t fit in regular trash. Cast iron is recyclable but requires getting it to a scrap yard. Fiberglass and acrylic need to go to the dump. Either way, you need a truck and probably help loading.
Tucson Junk Removal provides complete bathtub removal services. We disconnect the drain and overflow, detach the tub from walls and floor, and remove it from your bathroom. Cast iron tubs get broken up on-site if needed to fit through doorways. We haul everything away: the tub, any surround panels, and associated debris.
Whether you’re a homeowner doing a DIY remodel or a contractor who wants tub removal handled separately, we make the old bathtub disappear so you can move forward with your project. We handle bathtub removal in Oro Valley, Catalina Foothills, Cortaro, and throughout the Tucson area.
