Yes. Sunshine State handles demolition in Delray Beach, from a single gutted bathroom or a rotted backyard shed up to an entire house, and the debris leaves with us.

Delray Beach was incorporated as the Town of Delray in 1911 and renamed the City of Delray Beach in 1927. Its architectural golden age was the 1920s and 1930s, which left Mediterranean Revival and Mission Revival houses, Art Deco buildings, bungalows and Key West-style cottages. The city has established five local historic districts, and the Marina Historic District is listed on the National Register.
Downtown along Atlantic Avenue, which now runs from I-95 east to the ocean, has seen a building boom of mixed-use projects since about 2003, and waterfront "mansionization" has put pressure on the historic districts. West of the city, the area people call West Delray takes in High Point, Kings Point, Villages of Oriole and several gated communities, and many of those addresses are actually in unincorporated Palm Beach County.
General guidance
In general, homes built in the 1920s and 1930s come with plaster walls, old wood framing and decades of earlier remodels layered on top of each other, so an interior tear-out tends to produce heavier, more mixed debris than a newer drywall house. Properties inside a historic district usually go through extra review before exterior work or demolition, and that review has to be settled before anything comes down.
Large gated and age-restricted communities, like the ones west of town, more often call for interior work such as kitchen and bath tear-outs or flooring removal. In general, those associations set work hours and decide where debris and a trailer may sit.
We serve all of Delray Beach: Downtown and the Atlantic Avenue corridor, the Pineapple Grove Arts District, the Marina Historic District, Lake Ida and the communities of West Delray. Beachfront properties sit east of the Intracoastal Waterway along State Road A1A, so if your address is on that side, let us know about parking and loading space up front.
If your mailing address says Delray Beach but you live west of the city line, find out whether the property is inside the city or in unincorporated Palm Beach County. It makes no difference to us, but it decides which building department reviews the project.

Read about this job →Before demolition in Delray Beach, check with your city's building department, or with Palm Beach County's if your West Delray address is unincorporated, and ask whether historic-district review applies. The property owner or their contractor is responsible for permits. Sunshine State does not obtain them.
FAQ
We serve properties throughout the city, including the five local historic districts and the Marina Historic District. Historic properties usually face extra review before exterior work or demolition, so the owner or contractor should confirm approvals with the city first. We schedule the work once that is settled.
Many West Delray addresses, including parts of High Point, Kings Point and Villages of Oriole, are in unincorporated Palm Beach County rather than the city. We serve both. For permits it can mean a different building department, so check before the project starts.
