I have a hot tub that doesn't work and that is recessed into our back deck. We've decided that we don't want to invest any more money in making it work. How should we get rid of it? Even if we give it away on craigslist or something, how do we physically remove it from the deck without paying a lot of money for a crane to lift it out or ripping out the deck around it? Can you cut up a hot tub into pieces with a "saws-all"?

Answer
I'll assume it's not built in and is made of fiberglass. in that case they are not that heavy. you have to remove the decking around it.

I've decided to replace the above ground spa in my backyard with a garden. It's 15 years old, and it works, but we don't use it often enough to make the maintenance & cost worth it. How do I get rid of my hot tub in a cost-effective manner? Hire someone to take it away? Post it on Craigslist? If you've gotten rid of one before, how did you do it?

Answer
I operate a swimming pool and spa business. If you cannot give the spa away, hire a local handy man to cut up the spa and haul it away. My serious handy men can have the spa cut up and loaded in their truck in under three hours. Hope this helps.
