Heavy, Awkward, and Not Going Anywhere on Its Own

Concrete is in a category by itself when it comes to junk removal. It's brutally heavy, sharp-edged, and impossible to move in any quantity without the right equipment and a strong crew. A broken-up sidewalk, an old patio slab, chunks left over from a demo, or a cracked driveway can quickly add up to more weight than a pickup truck should ever carry. Our concrete removal service in Cape Girardeau, Missouri handles it — we load the broken concrete, block, and masonry by hand and haul it off, so you're not straining your back or bottoming out your truck's suspension. It's the kind of load that ruins a weekend and a vehicle when you try to do it yourself — far better to hand the heavy, gritty work to a crew set up for it.

Concrete and Masonry We Haul

We remove all kinds of heavy hardscape material:

If the concrete still needs to be broken up, that's a job for demolition equipment; once it's broken into haulable pieces, we take over and clear it. For small slabs we can sometimes break and remove in one pass — ask when you call.

Why Concrete Is Priced by Weight

Almost all our services are priced by volume — the space something takes in the truck. Concrete is the big exception. It's dense enough that a modest-looking pile can weigh a ton or more, and because disposal facilities charge by weight for heavy inert material, we price concrete removal by weight rather than by how much room it fills. A truck bed can be legally and safely loaded with only so much concrete before it's at capacity by weight, long before it looks full. Pricing by weight keeps it fair and honest — you pay for what's actually there.

You get a firm, up-front price based on the weight and access before we load a single piece.

Recycling the Rubble

Concrete doesn't have to go to a landfill. Clean broken concrete and masonry can be taken to facilities that crush it into recycled aggregate, which gets reused as fill and road base. We route clean concrete loads to recycling where it's available around Southeast Missouri, so your old driveway can become the base for a new project somewhere else instead of taking up landfill space.

Serving Cape Girardeau and Beyond

We haul concrete throughout Cape Girardeau and the surrounding towns — Jackson, Scott City, Perryville, and Sikeston among them — for homeowners, landscapers, and contractors alike. Whether you pulled out an old patio to make room for a new one, tore up a cracked walkway, or have a demo pile that needs to disappear, we've got the crew for the heavy lifting.

Access and Loading Realities

Concrete is heavy no matter what, but access changes how a job goes. A broken driveway right next to where the truck can park is straightforward; a backyard patio behind a narrow gate means every chunk gets carried by hand across the yard. When we quote a concrete job, we factor in both the weight and the haul distance, so the price reflects the real work. If pieces are oversized, we can break them down further to make them movable. None of this is your problem to solve — we bring the crew and the plan; you just tell us what's going.

Clean Loads Recycle Best

Concrete recycling works best when the load is clean — just concrete, block, and masonry without a lot of mixed trash, wood, or dirt tangled in. When you keep the pile clean, more of it can be crushed into reusable aggregate, which is the better environmental outcome and keeps heavy material out of the landfill. If your pile is mixed, that's fine too; we'll sort what we can. Either way, you get an honest, weight-based price up front.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is concrete priced by weight instead of by volume?

Concrete is extremely dense — a small pile can weigh a ton or more — and disposal facilities charge by weight for it. Pricing by weight rather than truck space keeps it fair, so you pay for what's actually there.

Do you break up the concrete, or does it need to be broken first?

Breaking up large slabs is a job for demolition equipment. Once it's in haulable pieces, we load and remove it. For small slabs we can sometimes break and haul in one pass — ask when you call.

Can broken concrete be recycled?

Yes. Clean concrete and masonry can be crushed into recycled aggregate for use as fill and road base. We route clean loads to recycling where it's available in Southeast Missouri.

Can you haul brick and block along with the concrete?

Absolutely. Concrete block, cinder block, brick, pavers, and stone masonry are all heavy inert materials we handle and price by weight along with concrete.
