Treat the shed and hot tub as connected work with separate boundaries. Empty the shed, show how it overlaps the hot tub plan, and document the shared route to the loading area.
Draw the hot tub project boundary
Mark the current tub, proposed tub location, work area, and path to the street on a simple photo or sketch. Show where the shed overlaps that plan.
A shed that only sits elsewhere in the yard belongs in a separate request. Keeping the connection clear prevents the hot tub estimate from turning into an open-ended cleanout.
Empty the shed by destination
Separate items to keep, ordinary removal, household hazardous waste, and items that need confirmation. Do not hide cans, batteries, or chemicals inside ordinary debris.
Seattle’s hazardous-waste program accepts many pool and spa supplies, pesticides, oil-based paint, and household chemicals. Check the current list before traveling.
Show the structure and shared route
Capture the front, back, both sides, roof, and foundation. Add a wide photo that includes the hot tub area and the full route to the street.
Mention soft floors, leaning walls, rot, anchors, or attached utilities. Those details change where workers can stand and how panels can be controlled.
Define the ground-level stopping point
State whether the scope stops after the shed is removed or includes skids, anchors, pavers, or a slab. Concrete is dense and should not be assumed to be part of ordinary shed debris.
A future hot tub pad needs separate decisions about load support, drainage, utilities, and installation.
Next step
Use the service page to review scope and the estimate checklist to organize photos, dimensions, and access details.
