Fence Removal in Redding, CT
On lots this dense, half the fences touch a property line. We pull them clean — after you and the neighbor agree whose fence it is.
In Redding, this work runs from Putnam Park area out to Sanfordtown and Redding Ridge.
Fence removal is the rare demolition you can price from your own pacing — the rate follows the linear foot, so walking the line gets you close before you ever call. What moves a quote above its floor is visible at the walkthrough: concrete-set posts that fight extraction, vines woven through the fabric, a line the truck can't park near. Chain link mostly leaves as scrap metal, the cheapest exit in the business; wood and vinyl haul as tonnage to state-permitted transfer stations. Whatever the mix, the total goes in writing with disposal inside it, and the number you sign is the number you pay.
Routing around the Merritt
Every Fairfield County dispatch starts with the same routing fact: the Merritt Parkway prohibits commercial vehicles, so our trucks take I-95 along the coast or Route 7 and Route 8 inland. It's built into how we schedule the county — your job, our routing problem — and the drive runs roughly 30–75 minutes from our Stamford and West Haven yards depending on your corner of the county.
Fence lines here are back-of-lot work on tight streets, so the truck usually stages in the driveway or at the curb while the crew works the line on foot. Pulled posts, rolled fabric, and stacked panels all carry out to the truck — a short walk on most lots, measured at the walkthrough where it isn't.
What we take
Wood, vinyl, and chain-link runs, gates and hardware included; poured curbing under a run is clean-fill work we'll point you to instead.
Where Redding’s debris actually goes
The do-it-yourself route exists here: Redding’s station takes C&D at a published per-ton rate source (quoted in full in the disposal questions below), resident permit required. Our route: the debris leaves in the can that’s already on the job, weighed once, billed at posted rates — no permit line, no pickup-truck trips, no guessing what the scale will say.
What it costs
Fence pricing runs by the footage and the material, partial runs welcome.
How the job goes
Panels and rails first, then posts — pulled where they'll pull, cut at grade and disclosed where they won't.

Fence Removal in Redding — questions we actually get
My fence is on the property line — anything I should do first?
Talk to the neighbor before we show up. We take direction from the person who hires us, but a shared-line fence coming down unannounced is a neighbor dispute we can't fix from the truck.
Wood versus chain-link versus vinyl — which is harder?
Chain-link is fastest — fabric rolls up, rails unbolt. Vinyl comes apart clean but bulks up the load. Old wood stockade is the heaviest and the most likely to fight, especially where posts have rotted at grade and the run is leaning.
Can you remove just a section of fence?
Yes. Partial runs, one bad stretch, the back line only — the quote follows the footage and the material, not a minimum fence count.
Anything I should do before the crew gets there?
Walk the line once. Flag anything buried along it — irrigation heads, buried dog-fence wire, landscape lighting runs — because a post plug coming up doesn't know the difference between dirt and your sprinkler main. Unlock the gates and move anything leaning against the fence. That's the whole list.
Where does an old fence end up?
Chain-link is the honest recycling story — fabric, rails, and posts all go out as scrap metal. Vinyl goes as bulky waste; there's no meaningful recycling stream for weathered PVC fence. Old wood stockade is C&D, and pressure-treated posts follow the same no-burn rule as deck lumber.
Why can't your trucks just take the Merritt?
Because the parkway bans commercial vehicles — it's a hard rule, not a preference, and every hauler working this county lives with it. Our trucks run I-95 or come down Route 7 or Route 8 instead. It's already baked into our Fairfield County scheduling, so it doesn't change your quote or your booking window; it's just why the truck arrives from the direction it does.
The fence between us and the neighbor is falling down and nobody remembers who built it. Now what?
Talk first, then call us. A boundary fence with unclear ownership is a conversation — or occasionally a property survey — between you and the neighbor, and it has to happen before removal, because we can't referee it from the truck. The good news: in our experience most neighbors are delighted to split the cost of removing an eyesore both of them have been staring at. Once you're agreed, the removal itself is routine.
What does it cost to dump fence removal debris at the Redding transfer station?
Redding's published rate for residential construction and demolition material at Town of Redding Recycling Center and Transfer Station (as published September 2026): Demolition: $.27 per pound (examples: lumber, plywood, sheetrock, cement, shingles). Bulky Waste: $.27 per pound (couches, chairs, tables, sinks, toilets, bathtubs, empty paint cans, hoses). Kitchen & Household: $.27 per pound. Metal: $.15 per pound. Note: 'Grass clippings, leaves, tree stumps and mixed loads are NOT ACCEPTED.' Towns repost these schedules on their own timetable, so check the source link before you budget against it. That's the do-it-yourself route; on our jobs the debris rides out in the can that's already on site, weighed once and billed at our posted rates.
Do I need a permit to use the Redding transfer station?
Yes — Redding requires a resident permit for station access, per the town's posted rules. Factor the permit into any DIY disposal math; our trucks don't need one because we don't use the resident line.
When is the Redding transfer station open?
The town posts (as published September 2026): Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday ONLY, 7:30am to 3:00pm; closed Tuesdays, Thursdays, Sundays and legal holidays. Holiday closures apply — check the town's page before you load, or skip the trip entirely and let the can take the schedule problem off your plate.
