The easy end to the season

Christmas light takedown, removal, and storage

Nobody wants to drag a ladder out in January to pull down frozen strands. We do not make you. After the holidays we remove your entire display, then label and store it off site, ready to go back up next year. No bins in your garage, no cold-weather chore on your list.

The part everyone dreads

We handle the January chore for you

Putting lights up is exciting. Taking them down is the opposite. By the time the holidays are over, the weather is at its coldest, the strands are stiff, and that ladder feels twice as tall. So takedown gets put off, and plenty of homes around the county still have lights up in March. With DAB, that never happens to you.

Removal is built into our full-service model. We come out on a safe day after the season, take down every strand and clip, and leave your home tidy. Then we label everything to your property and store it at our facility. You get your garage and attic space back, and next year's install is faster because your custom-cut display is already organized and waiting.

  • Complete post-season removal of strands, clips, and accents
  • Tidy cleanup so your home looks like nothing was ever there
  • Labeled, off-site storage tied to your property
  • Faster reinstall next season because it is all organized

Why this matters

You own nothing and store nothing

Off-site storage is the piece that makes the whole season effortless. Here is what it gives you.

No January ladders

You never climb up in the cold to pull down stiff, frozen strands. We do all of it for you.

Your garage back

No tubs of tangled lights taking up shelf space all year. We keep them, not you.

Labeled to your home

Everything is tagged to your property, so your exact display is ready the next season.

Faster reinstall

Because strands are cut to fit and organized, next year's setup goes up quicker.

Clean finish

We remove every clip and leave your roofline and yard looking untouched.

Zero hassle

The season simply ends. No chore lingers on your to-do list into spring.

Good to know

Takedown and storage questions

When do you take the lights down?

Usually in January once the holidays wrap up. We schedule takedown on a mild day when we can work safely, and you do not need to be home for it.

Where are my lights stored?

Off site at our facility, labeled to your home. There are no bins cluttering your garage or attic, and nothing for you to keep track of between seasons.

Do I get the same lights back next year?

Because strands are cut to fit your property and labeled, your display goes right back up the next season. That also makes reinstalling faster and smoother.

Do I have to do anything for takedown?

Nothing. No ladders, no untangling, no hauling bins around. We remove every strand and clip, leave your home tidy, and store it all for you.

Is takedown and storage included or separate?

It is part of our full-service model. Because we own and store the materials, removal and storage are built into how we work, which we cover in your written quote.
