POTTAWATOMIE COUNTY
Demolition & Junk Removal in Tecumseh, OK
Fast, fully insured service for Tecumseh and the surrounding Pottawatomie County.
Tecumseh is eight miles south of Shawnee in Pottawatomie County, about fifty-eight miles out from Mustang. It's an old county-seat town — Tecumseh held the seat before Shawnee grew past it — with a historic core, older housing, and farm ground wrapped around it.
What We Handle Here
Property-scale work is what makes the drive make sense: full estate and property cleanouts, structure demo, barns and outbuildings down, land clearing and multi-load hauls. Mobile and manufactured home removal comes up out here as well. We're honest about the distance — Tecumseh is scheduled by the load, not a same-day run for a single item, and the quote is free either way.
📍 58 mi from the shop in Mustang
We're out this way regularly on the bigger jobs. Free quote, scheduled by the load — at this distance we won't promise same-day, and we'll tell you honestly on the phone whether your job makes sense.

What the city offers
Tecumseh's bulk trash pickup runs the first full week of each month. GFL does homes north of Highway 9 on that Monday and homes south of it on Tuesday, starting at 7 a.m., so set things out the night before. Each home may set out as much as 3 cubic yards. For a very large item, call the Utility Office at (405) 598-2189 so it can give GFL a heads-up.
What it won't cover — and where we come in
Bulk pickup won't take tires, batteries or anything with Freon, and city code only picks up furniture, appliances, building materials, dirt and rocks during cleanup periods the city sets. Appliances, remodel debris and whatever's past the 3-yard limit are what we haul.
Permits
Under the fee schedule adopted in February 2025, a Tecumseh demolition permit is $10, and the sewer has to be capped at least 24 inches above grade. Apply at the Building Department in City Hall, 114 N. Broadway, weekdays 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., (405) 598-3911. Burning needs a $5 permit from the Building Department, good for seven days and inspected by the Fire Department first; only limbs and brush are approved, and burning without a permit carries a $247 fine.
