In ground pool removal

[Chris Ryan]

Could someone give me an idea if the process and cost to remove and fill in an average size in-ground pool that is concrete...not a liner? Thx for the help

Mathew is correct.  You have to at least put holes in the bottom before you fill in the pool or you'll end up with a marsh in your back yard.  Then it's just the cost of the fill dirt and labor.  Really you should compact the dirt as you go so you don't have a big sink hole.  Do you have any dirt or rocks on the property that can be used for fill?  Depending on the size of the pool it can easily push $9-10k down here in the D.C., Virginia, Maryland area.
