But, if you’re not that handy with tools, you’ll probably just want to offload the material debris. In that case, you can’t burn it because of the chemicals it contains.

As for an outdoor deck removal, this depends on how it’s installed. Fortunately, the installation and disassembly process is generally the same. Here’s how to go about an outdoor deck removal for disposal and/or replacement:

  • Clear the deck. It all begins with a blank slate. (Also, you need an empty space to work freely and without safety hazards.) Clear the deck of any furniture, cooking equipment, decor, and everything else. Leave nothing on it so you can work without stopping.
  • Remove the rails. To begin the actual dismantling process, you’ll need to start with the rails first. Take the rails off the deck and put them out of the way.
  • Remove the boards. Next, you’ll remove the damaged boards or all the boards, one by one. Usually, these are fastened to the support frame by screws, so you’ll just need a drill-driver to remove them. Be sure to put them into a can or bag.
  • Pull the steps apart and cut the frame up. If so equipped, you’ll need to take apart the steps. Then, remove the support posts.
