Professional Demolition With Full Metal Recovery

MOME Metals Recycling is here for professional demolition services in Fort Myers and across Southwest Florida. Our experienced team is equipped to handle various demolition needs, from small residential structures to large-scale commercial and industrial projects. What makes us different from a standard demolition contractor is that we are a licensed scrap metal recycling facility, which means we maximize the recovery and recycling of all metals from your demolition project.

This dual capability as both a demolition contractor and a metal recycler creates a significant financial advantage for our clients. The metals we salvage during demolition have real market value, and that value is factored into your project cost. In many cases, the value of recovered metals substantially reduces the overall demolition cost, and in some cases, you may actually receive a payment for the metal recovered.

Whether you need a hurricane-damaged home torn down, a commercial building cleared for new development, an old pool removed, or industrial equipment dismantled and hauled away, MOME has the crew, equipment, and expertise to execute safely and efficiently.

What We Demolish

Demolition Project Types We Handle

From single-family homes to industrial facilities, our team has the capability and experience to take on demolition projects of any scope throughout Lee and Collier counties.

Residential Demolition

Complete home demolition, foundation removal, and site clearing for single-family homes, duplexes, mobile homes, and manufactured housing. We handle everything from permits to final grading.

Commercial Demolition

Strip malls, office buildings, retail spaces, restaurants, and other commercial structures. We work efficiently to clear the site for redevelopment while maximizing metal salvage value.

Interior Demo & Gut-Outs

Selective interior demolition for remodels, tenant improvements, and renovations. We strip interiors down to the studs while preserving the structural shell and salvaging all metals from plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems.

Industrial Dismantling

Heavy equipment removal, factory dismantling, warehouse demolition, and industrial site clearing. Industrial projects often contain the highest concentration of recoverable metals, providing the greatest cost offset.

Pool Demolition

In-ground and above-ground pool removal, including concrete breaking, rebar recovery, backfill, and compaction. Pool demolition is one of the most common residential projects we handle in Southwest Florida.

Shed & Outbuilding Removal

Metal sheds, carports, screen enclosures, detached garages, and other outbuildings. Many outbuildings are made primarily of metal, which means the salvage value can cover a significant portion of the removal cost.

Hurricane Damage Demolition

Post-storm demolition of structurally compromised buildings, debris removal, and site clearing. Our team understands the urgency and unique challenges of hurricane recovery work in Southwest Florida.

Equipment & Machinery Removal

Dismantling and removal of industrial equipment, HVAC rooftop units, boilers, tanks, conveyor systems, and heavy machinery. We cut, separate, and haul equipment with our own fleet and heavy tools.

Smarter Approach

Deconstruction vs. Traditional Demolition

Traditional demolition is straightforward: bring in heavy equipment, knock everything down, and haul mixed debris to a landfill. It is fast, but it wastes enormous material value and you pay for every cubic yard of disposal.

Deconstruction takes a smarter, more methodical approach. Instead of demolishing everything into a mixed debris pile, our crew carefully disassembles the structure to separate and salvage valuable materials, especially metals like copper wiring, copper plumbing, steel beams, aluminum siding, iron pipe, brass fittings, and stainless steel fixtures.

Because MOME is both a demolition contractor and a licensed scrap metal recycler, we do not need a middleman. The metals we recover go directly to our Fort Myers processing facility where they are weighed, sorted, graded, and sold at full market value. That value is credited to you, reducing your overall project cost or even generating a payment.

Metal Value Offsets Your Cost

The scrap metal recovered during demolition has real market value. That value reduces your project cost or results in a payment to you.

Maximum Material Recovery

We salvage every pound of metal possible. Copper, steel, aluminum, iron, brass, stainless steel — all of it has value and all of it gets recycled.

Less Landfill Waste

By separating metals from general debris, we dramatically reduce the volume of material sent to the landfill, lowering your environmental impact.

No Middleman, Full Value

As both the demolition crew and the recycler, there is no middleman taking a cut. You receive the full market value of recovered metals.

Storm Recovery

Hurricane-Damaged Property Demolition

Southwest Florida sits in one of the most hurricane-vulnerable regions in the United States. When major storms hit, they leave behind homes, businesses, and structures that are too damaged to repair and must be demolished safely before rebuilding can begin. MOME Metals Recycling has first-hand experience with post-hurricane demolition and cleanup across Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Sanibel, and the surrounding areas.

Hurricane-damaged properties present unique challenges including structural instability, waterlogged materials, mold, debris fields, and limited site access. Our crew is trained to assess these hazards, work safely in compromised structures, and execute demolition methodically. We coordinate with insurance adjusters, local building departments, and property owners to ensure the process is smooth and compliant.

Even in storm-damaged properties, there is significant metal value to be recovered. Roofing metal, structural steel, aluminum frames, copper wiring and plumbing, iron rebar, and HVAC equipment all retain their scrap value regardless of storm damage. We make sure you receive credit for every pound of metal we salvage from your property.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of demolition does MOME handle?
MOME handles a wide range of demolition projects including residential home demolition, commercial building demolition, interior gut-outs and strip-outs, industrial dismantling, pool demolition, shed and outbuilding removal, hurricane-damaged property demolition, and heavy equipment and machinery removal. We assess each project individually and provide a detailed bid that accounts for the value of recoverable metals.
Do I get paid for the metal salvaged during demolition?
Yes. This is one of the biggest advantages of working with MOME for your demolition project. Because we are a licensed scrap metal recycling facility, we salvage and recycle all metals recovered during the demolition process. This includes structural steel, copper wiring, copper plumbing, aluminum, iron, and other valuable metals. The value of recovered metals is factored into your project bid, which can significantly reduce or even offset demolition costs. In metal-heavy projects like industrial dismantling, you may actually receive a net payment.
Does MOME handle permits for demolition projects?
We work with you on the permitting process. Most demolition projects in Lee and Collier County require permits from the local building department. Our team is experienced with the permit requirements in Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Naples, Bonita Springs, and surrounding municipalities. We can guide you through the process, advise on what is needed, and in many cases handle the permit applications on your behalf as part of the project scope. We will let you know exactly what is required during the bidding phase.
How long does a typical demolition project take?
Project timelines vary based on scope and complexity. A small residential structure like a shed, carport, or garage can often be completed in one to two days. A full residential home demolition typically takes three to five days including site clearing. Commercial projects may take one to two weeks, and large industrial dismantling projects can run several weeks depending on the size of the facility, structural complexity, hazardous material abatement requirements, and the scope of metal recovery. We provide a detailed timeline estimate with every bid so you know what to expect.
Can MOME demolish hurricane-damaged properties?
Yes. Southwest Florida is vulnerable to hurricanes, and MOME has direct experience with post-storm demolition and cleanup throughout the region. We handle hurricane-damaged homes, commercial buildings, and other structures that need to be torn down safely before rebuilding can begin. Our team is equipped to work with properties that have sustained structural compromise, water damage, mold issues, and extensive debris fields. We coordinate with insurance companies and local authorities as needed and can expedite scheduling for urgent storm recovery situations.
What is the difference between demolition and deconstruction?
Traditional demolition involves tearing down a structure as quickly as possible, often with heavy machinery, resulting in mixed debris that is hauled to a landfill. Deconstruction is a more methodical process that involves carefully disassembling the structure to salvage and recover valuable materials, especially metals. MOME specializes in the deconstruction approach because it maximizes metal recovery, reduces landfill waste, and puts money back in your pocket through the value of salvaged metals. The approach we use depends on the project, but we always prioritize metal recovery to maximize your financial benefit.
