Concrete Removal

Full-Service Concrete Demolition, Haul-Off & Site Cleanup

Breaking up concrete is only half the job—getting it out of the way is just as important. At Schaunaman Concrete Cutting & Demo, we provide complete concrete removal and tear-out services for residential, commercial, and industrial sites across Sioux Falls and surrounding South Dakota communities.



From cracked driveways and damaged slabs to foundation walls and sidewalks, we handle every phase of removal: demolition, loading, hauling, and debris disposal. Whether you're starting a new build or clearing out an old one, our team delivers fast, clean results that leave your site ready for the next trade.

Our Concrete Removal Process

We manage every step of the tear-out, so you don’t have to juggle multiple subs or waste time on cleanup.

Cut & Break

We begin with precision cutting or controlled demolition, depending on the material, thickness, and location.

Load & Haul

Broken concrete is removed using skidloaders, wheelbarrows, or hand tools, then hauled off-site using trucks or dumpsters.

Final Cleanup

We clear remaining debris, sweep or pressure wash the site, and leave the area clean and job-ready.
