Fence removal and junk hauling in New Braunfels, TX
Twenty miles south of the base on I-35. The documented job here is a fence tear out: old cedar pickets, rails and brush stacked at the curb and hauled off after the new fence went up.

- Fence and brush
- Curb cleared
The common call
Somebody built the new fence. Nobody took the old one.
Fence contractors quote what they build. Tear out and haul off is often a separate line, and plenty of the time it is not on the estimate at all. What is left is a stack of old cedar, rusted rails, posts with concrete on the bottom and whatever brush was growing along the line, sitting at the curb where the city bulk pickup is not going to take it.
That is the New Braunfels job in the photos below. New cedar already standing, old fence and brush piled at the street, loaded and gone.
The same applies to decks, sheds and trampolines. If somebody else is building the replacement, the old one still has to leave the property.
Real job
Old fence and brush off the curb
New Braunfels, June 2026. Three photos of the pile that left.
How a tear out goes
Four parts, one visit
-
01
Pickets and rails first
The boards come off, then the rails. This is the bulk of the volume and it is what turns a fence into a pile you cannot fit in a truck bed.
-
02
Posts and footings
Posts get pulled with the concrete still on the bottom where the ground allows it. Concrete footings are heavy and they are the part people underestimate when they plan to do it themselves.
-
03
The brush that came with it
Nothing has been trimmed along that line in years. Vines, limbs and shrub growth come out with the fence and go on the same load.
-
04
Curb cleared
On the June job the new cedar was already standing and the old pickets and brush were stacked at the curb. That whole stack left on the trailer.
