When Hail Alley hits, the mess it leaves — roof tear-off shingles, a shredded fence, a wrecked deck, downed branches, a flooded basement — has to go before repairs can start. We haul all of it, fast: send a photo, get a flat price, and a vetted crew clears it same-day. Storm debris from $119 a cubic yard, tarped, by a licensed Denver waste hauler, with no Colorado sales tax on the service.

Upload a Photo & Get Quote →The Front Range isn't just hail country — it's the #1 large-hail region in North America, and Colorado ranks as the second-most hail-impacted state in the U.S. This isn't rare-weather talk: the metro's landmark storms — May 2017 (~$2.3 billion) and May 2024 (~$1.9 billion) in insured losses — are among the costliest in state history. The season runs April through July, peaking in mid-June, and a single supercell can strip roofs, shatter fences, splinter decks, and drop branches across whole neighborhoods in twenty minutes. Then comes the part nobody talks about: the cleanup. Once the adjuster's been out and the roofer's booked, the pile of tear-off shingles, the busted fence sections, and the storm-snapped limbs still have to leave the property — and the city won't take most of it. That's the gap we fill, and almost no one else in Denver markets a same-day storm-debris response.
Show us the tear-off pile, the wrecked fence, the branches, or the flooded basement. Flat price back in seconds — no walkthrough while you're dealing with the storm.
Same-day and next-day slots are the priority after a storm. We time the haul around your roofer or repair crew if you need us to.
The crew loads the debris, tarps it, and hauls it — receipts kept on file. Your property's clear so repairs can move.
Flat and photo-quoted. Light branch and yard debris prices by the cubic yard; heavy roofing and mixed construction debris prices higher by the yard because it tips by weight; a water-damaged basement prices as truck-fill.
| Storm debris | Flat price |
|---|---|
| Downed branches & yard debris | $119 / cubic yard |
| Roof tear-off & heavy C&D (shingles, fence, deck) | $162 / cubic yard |
| Loose debris pile — small / medium / large | $110 / $174 / $280 |

$75 minimum. Disposal included. A big storm often means multiple loads, each priced the same way. No Colorado sales tax on the service.

Roof tear-off. A hail claim almost always means a re-roof, and the old shingles come off in a heavy, nail-studded pile in the driveway or yard. We haul it so your roofing crew isn't working around it and the nails don't end up in your tires. Fencing and decking. Wind and hail take out cedar fences and deck boards constantly on the Front Range; we clear the wrecked sections, posts, and splintered lumber. Downed branches and yard debris. A single supercell can drop more brush than a year of normal yard work; we haul the limbs and stripped foliage by the yard. Water-damaged basements. The rain that rides in with hail floods low basements — we carry the ruined furniture, carpet, and boxes up the stairs so you can dry out and rebuild. One call covers all four.
Not the debris that actually piles up after a storm. Denver's free Large Item Pickup (via Denver 311 · 720-913-1311) is a household bulky-goods program — five large items, once every nine weeks, curbside-only — and it does not take roofing tear-off, torn fencing and decking, or construction debris, nor is it built for the sheer branch volume a hailstorm leaves. On top of that, after a major event the whole metro is calling at once, so any municipal option is buried for weeks exactly when you need the property clear for the adjuster and the roofer. That's the case for a fast, full-service hauler: we come the day you call, take the heavy storm debris the city won't, and — as a licensed Denver waste hauler — keep the disposal receipts a claim may want on file.
Storm cleanup has a sequence, and we fit into it. Most people call after the adjuster has documented the damage and the roofer is scheduled — that's when the tear-off pile needs to disappear on the roofer's timeline, not a week later. We time the haul to the repair crew, clear the site so the trades work faster, and tarp every load (an uncovered load doubles the tip fee on the Front Range, and loose shingles blowing down the street help no one). We haul the debris; we don't do the roof, the fence rebuild, or the insurance paperwork — but the receipts we keep and the clean site we leave both make the rest of your storm recovery smoother.
| Option | Cost | Speed | Catch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Denver Large Item Pickup | Free | Weeks — slower after a big storm | Won't take roofing, fence, deck, or C&D; not built for branch volume; curbside-only |
| Roll-off dumpster rental | ~$400–$700+ | 1–3 days to drop | Sits on the property for days; you load every sharp, heavy piece by hand |
| Self-haul to a facility | Tip fees + truck | Multiple trips | Loading nail-studded shingles yourself; uncovered loads double the fee |
| Traditional full-service hauler | ~$300–$800+ | Backed up post-storm | Priced by volume, often confirmed only on site |
| JunkRabbit | From $119/yd, flat | Same/next day | None — flat photo price, we load it, licensed & tarped |
We divert what we can even under storm pressure. Metal — flashing, gutters, fence posts, patio frames — goes to a metal recycler; clean wood and brush route to green-waste or mulch where accepted; and any salvageable furniture from a flooded basement that's still usable goes to donation (Goodwill of Colorado, ARC Thrift Stores, Habitat for Humanity ReStore). Roofing tear-off and mixed C&D go to the proper construction-debris facility. Every load leaves tarped, and it all lines up with Denver's push to keep bulky and construction waste out of the landfill.
"June hailstorm took our roof and half the fence. After the adjuster came, they hauled the tear-off pile and the wrecked fence same-day so the roofers could start. Flat price, tarped, receipts for my claim file."
"The storm dropped half a tree across the yard and flooded the basement. They cleared the branches and carried the ruined furniture up the stairs the next morning. One flat number, no tax. Huge relief."
"Every hauler in town was slammed after the hail. These guys still got out to Arvada next day, loaded the deck debris and shingles themselves, and swept the drive of nails. Booked it from a photo."
How fast can you come after a storm?
Usually same-day or next-day — storm response is the priority. Send a photo, get a flat price, and grab the next open window.
How much does it cost?
Yard/branch debris $119/yd, heavy roofing/C&D $162/yd, loose piles from $110, water-damaged basement truck-fill to $985. $75 minimum, no CO sales tax.
Will the city take the roofing and branches?
No — Denver's bulky program won't take roofing, fence, deck, or C&D and isn't built for storm branch volume. We haul all of it.
Do you help with the insurance side?
We haul the debris and keep disposal receipts on file for your records; we don't do the roof or the claim paperwork itself.
Can you clear a water-damaged basement after a storm?
Yes — when hail-driven rain floods a lower level, we carry out the soaked carpet, ruined furniture, and boxes as a flat truck-fill, up the stairs and gone, so the dry-out and repair crews walk into an empty room.
When's the worst of Denver's hail season?
April through July, with the heaviest, largest hail clustering around mid-June along the Front Range — the reason we keep storm-response windows open through the spring and early summer.
Hail doesn't respect city limits — we run crews across Denver and the whole Front Range ring, so a fast window is usually close.
