Fence Removal in Westport, 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 Westport, this work runs from Beachside Avenue out to Compo South and Saugatuck.

Fence lines in this county live at the back of tight lots, which makes removal a curb-and-carry operation: the truck stages in the driveway or on the street, and the crew works the line on foot, ferrying rolled fabric and pulled posts back as they go. Our routing skips the Merritt — the parkway's ban on commercial vehicles is absolute — so trucks arrive by I-95 or the inland state routes, a detail we plan for so you never have to. The walk from line to truck is short on most lots, and measured honestly at the walkthrough where it isn't.

How the job goes

Panels and rails first, then posts — pulled where they'll pull, cut at grade and disclosed where they won'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.

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 it costs

Fence pricing runs by the footage and the material, partial runs welcome.

Fence Removal in Westport — questions we actually get

Can you time the removal with my new fence install?
That's the normal way it goes — old fence out a day or two before the installer arrives, so the yard isn't open any longer than it has to be. Give us the install date and we'll work backward from it. If you've got dogs, say so at booking and we'll talk through the gap window honestly.
Is there anything you won't take with the fence?
Dirt and concrete beyond what rides out on a pulled post. If a run has poured curb or footing wall under it, that's clean-fill territory and we'll point you at the right kind of hauler for it.
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.
The fence is buried in vines and hedge — is that a problem?
It's extra cutting, not a dealbreaker. A run that's grown into forsythia or bittersweet gets cut free section by section, and the vegetation we cut to free the fence rides out with it. What we don't do is hedge removal disguised as fence work — if the real job is clearing the green wall, we'll quote that as its own line.
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.
Do I need a permit to use the Westport transfer station?
Westport publishes no resident permit program for its station — proof of residency is the posted requirement. Rules change, so check the town's page before loading a truck.
When is the Westport transfer station open?
The town posts Monday - Friday, 7am - 2:30pm, & Saturday, 7am - Noon. Closed Sundays, New Years Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.. 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.
