Demolition in Star, ID

Demolition Services in Star

Star is the fastest-growing city in Idaho right now, and that growth is changing what's sitting on people's lots. A lot of the rural-residential parcels along the Boise River corridor still have old barns, ag buildings, sagging fences, and sheds that were built for a different era of the property. As those acreage lots get subdivided or just updated, those structures are often the first thing that has to go.

The newer side of Star tells a different story. Subdivisions like Heron River, Star River Estates, Movado Estates, Skybreak, and Star River Ranch were mostly built in the last 10 to 15 years, so demolition there tends to be smaller-scale: a builder-grade shed nobody wants, a deck that's been rebuilt wrong twice, a concrete patio in the way of a new layout. Pools and mobile homes come up on both the old and new side of town, depending on the property.

Permits matter either way. Star's Building Department issues demolition permits and lists a fee for them on the city's schedule, so it's worth a call before anything comes down, even for something as small as a shed. Star's city limits also stretch into both Ada and Canyon counties, and permit rules can differ depending on which side your property sits on.

Disposal has its own rules too. Most construction and demolition debris from Star goes to the Ada County Landfill, known locally as Hidden Hollow, off Seamans Gulch Road, with the Meridian Transfer Station as another option for some materials. Concrete and scrap metal are accepted there, but treated or painted wood isn't accepted for diversion, and loads need to be tarped or strapped down. And no, you can't just burn an old shed or fence instead of hauling it off, the local fire district's burn rules don't allow construction or demolition debris.
