Same rate after a storm
Owner-operated means one truck, one guy, no franchise dispatch. After a storm, we do not bring in out-of-state crews at double the going rate. The $100-$600 labor-and-haul price is the price. Every time.
Call early if you can. Same-day availability after a major storm depends on how many people called ahead of you. We work through the list in the order calls come in.
Cleaning up over a few days?
If you want to work through the cleanup at your own pace - chainsaw the fallen tree today, haul out the downed fence tomorrow, finish the yard the day after - the self-load drop-off trailer fits that schedule. We deliver it to your driveway, you fill it when you are ready, we haul it.

Common questions
How much does storm debris cleanup cost in Tampa?
Storm debris hauling starts at $100 for a single item or small pile and goes up to $600 for a full trailer load. Most post-storm yard cleanups fall in the $150-$450 range depending on the volume of palm fronds, branches, and structural debris. If the job is too big for one pull, we tell you upfront and quote a second trip. Pricing is all-in: labor, loading, hauling, and disposal.
What kind of storm debris can you haul in Tampa Bay?
We take palm fronds, fallen branches, tree limbs (cut to manageable sections), fence panels and fence posts, blown shingles, torn gutters, soaked carpet and pad, water-damaged drywall, and general post-storm yard debris. We cannot take liquid hazardous materials, motor oil, paint, fuel, or chemicals. If you have hurricane debris mixed with normal junk, we can usually take the whole load.
How fast can you get here after a storm in Tampa?
We work same-day where the schedule allows. After a major storm, demand spikes and wait times go up. Call early - if you call before 1 PM on a weekday and we have an opening, we can often get there that day. After a significant hurricane, expect 1-3 days depending on demand across the Tampa Bay metro. We do not do surge pricing. The rate after a storm is the same rate as any other day.
Can I use the self-load trailer for hurricane cleanup?
Yes. If you want to clean up over multiple days instead of scheduling a single crew visit, the self-load drop-off trailer is a good fit. We deliver the trailer to your driveway, you fill it on your own schedule, and we haul it when you are done. Base price is $400. First ton is free. Each additional ton is $100. Most residential post-storm loads are 1 to 2 tons.
