That cracked driveway isn't fixing itself. The old patio slab has been heaving for years, the sidewalk sections are uneven enough to trip on, and the shed foundation from the structure you already tore down is still sitting there. Concrete is heavy, stubborn, and a nightmare to deal with on your own. A1 Junk Removal and Tree Service handles concrete removal across the Omaha metro. We break it up, load the pieces, and haul it all away to a recycling facility.
We've jackhammered driveways in Bennington, broken up old patio slabs in Elkhorn, and hauled away concrete debris from renovation projects across Omaha. Whether it's a 4-inch sidewalk or a 6-inch reinforced slab with rebar, we have the tools and the truck capacity to get it done.
Types of Concrete We Remove
Driveways and Parking Pads
Full driveway removal or partial sections. We break it up into manageable pieces, load them by hand or with equipment, and haul them to recycling.
Sidewalks and Walkways
Cracked, heaving, or uneven sidewalk sections that are a tripping hazard. We remove the damaged sections and haul away the debris.
Patios and Slab Foundations
Old patio pads, shed foundations, hot tub pads, and other concrete slabs in the yard. We break them up and remove every piece.
Steps, Curbs, and Retaining Walls
Concrete steps, curbing, small retaining walls, and other structural concrete that needs to come out. We work carefully around adjacent structures.
How We Break It Up
Concrete removal starts with breaking the slab into pieces small enough to lift and load. For standard 4-inch residential concrete, we use electric jackhammers and sledgehammers. For thicker slabs or reinforced concrete with rebar, we bring heavier equipment. The rebar gets cut with reciprocating saws and separated for metal recycling. We work section by section, breaking, loading, and clearing as we go. The goal is to get the concrete out and leave the ground underneath as level as possible. If you're also dealing with other construction debris from a renovation project, we can handle that in the same trip.
Where the Concrete Goes
Concrete is one of the most recyclable construction materials. We take it to facilities that crush it into aggregate, which gets reused as road base, backfill, and foundation material for new construction. The rebar gets pulled out and recycled as scrap steel. Nothing goes to the landfill. This is better for the environment and keeps disposal costs reasonable, since recycling facilities charge less than landfills for clean concrete.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you break up concrete or just haul it away?
Both. We break up concrete with jackhammers and sledgehammers, then load the pieces and haul them away. If you've already broken it up yourself, we'll just handle the hauling.
How much does concrete removal cost?
It depends on the thickness of the concrete, the total area, whether it has rebar, and how accessible it is. A small patio pad costs much less than a full driveway. We give you a firm price after looking at the job.
Do you remove concrete with rebar in it?
Yes. Reinforced concrete with rebar takes more time to break up and cut through, but we handle it regularly. The rebar gets separated and recycled with the scrap metal.
What do you do with the old concrete?
Concrete is recyclable. We take it to facilities that crush it down and reuse it as aggregate for road base, fill material, and new construction projects.
