Five short questions about the tub and the two spots, then where to reach you. Most people finish in under a minute.

Question 1What needs to happen to the tub?

Pick the closest. Anything unusual can go in the message at the end.

Question 2What kind of tub is it?

Size changes the equipment and the crew. A rough idea is fine.

Question 3How does the tub get out of where it is now?

Most tubs travel on their side on a spa dolly, so what matters is the narrowest point on the way to the street.

Question 4Is the new spot ready for it?

A tub that arrives before its circuit and its pad sits drained, and in a Colorado winter a drained tub can freeze. Removals can pick the last option.

Question 5When does it need to move?
Who you are, and where the tub is now

Who should we ask for?

How can we reach you?

We call to confirm the details before anyone is sent out.

Where is the property?

The contractor match is by property, not by person, so the street line matters.

Local Context

Placing the tub where a Lakewood circuit can reach it

You want the tub on its new Lakewood pad and heating, not sitting drained while the circuit is rerouted. The spot and the wiring are one decision here. Lakewood's residential pool and hot tub handout requires a building permit for any hot tub or spa on a residential property, portable or not, and the plot plan has to show the proposed electrical, which must terminate within 6 feet of the equipment it feeds. Settle the spot and the circuit run together, and the registered electrical contractor works under that permit. We line that up first, then connect you with a vetted spa mover, licensed and insured.

Deciding

Lakewood move day: permit, circuit, refill

Lakewood's calendar decides how the move day runs. The city's NOAA station averages 153.8 freezing nights a year, with a median first freeze on October 7 and a last on May 3, so in that window the tub needs its lines blown out properly and its refill booked for moving day or the one after. That only works if the permit and the circuit are finished before the tub leaves the old house.

  1. A permit even for a portable tub

    Lakewood requires a building permit for any hot tub on a residential property, so a tub that simply sits on a pad is not an exception.

  2. 6 feet from the equipment

    The plot plan shows the proposed electrical ending within 6 feet of the equipment it feeds. Choose a spot the circuit can reach without a long run.

  3. Cover or fence at the new yard

    Lakewood wants a lockable spa cover or a fence at least 48 inches high with self-latching gates. Check the cover's latches before the move.

Questions

Lakewood hot tub moving questions

My tub is portable. Does Lakewood still want a permit for it?

Yes. Lakewood's handout requires a building permit for any pool, hot tub or spa installed on a residential property, and the plot plan must show where the electrical runs and that it ends within 6 feet of the equipment.

Can I move a hot tub into Lakewood in October?

Yes, with the refill planned. Lakewood's median first freeze is October 7, so from then into May a drained tub is exposed overnight. Book the refill for moving day or the day after, which means the circuit has to be ready first.
