Storage equipment you no longer need can still have value. We buy suitable second-hand racking, shelving and mezzanine floors from businesses that are relocating, closing, downsizing or upgrading, and we can carry out the strip-out too.
Whether you have a few bays of racking or a whole warehouse to clear, we’ll look at what you have and give you a clear offer or quotation before any work is agreed.
What We Buy
Pallet Racking
Frames, beams, decking and accessories from common ranges, including Apex, Dexion Speedlock, Dexion P90, Link 51, Mecalux, PSS, Stow and Storax.
Mezzanine Floors
Steel mezzanine floors, including the structure, decking, stairs, handrails and pallet gates.
Shelving & Cantilever Racking
Longspan and industrial shelving, and cantilever racking.
What we can pay depends on the make, condition, quantity and current demand, and on the work involved in dismantling and removing it. Sometimes the equipment is worth more than the removal; sometimes we’ll quote for the strip-out instead. We’ll explain which applies before anything is agreed.
How It Works
- Tell us what you haveSend photos, the make if you know it, rough quantities and sizes, the site location and when it needs to be cleared.
- Site visit, where neededWe check the equipment, the access and what’s involved in taking it down safely.
- Offer or quotationWe confirm in writing whether we’ll buy the equipment, quote for the strip-out, or a mix of both.
- Dismantling and removalOur teams dismantle the equipment, keep the work area separated from your operations and take it away, working to a programme agreed with you.
- Site left clearWe remove everything agreed and leave the area clear. Any making good of floor fixings is agreed beforehand.
Why Sell to Us?
- Buying, dismantling and removal handled by one team
- A clear written offer or quotation before work starts
- Work planned around your move, lease end or closing date
- Suitable equipment is reused rather than scrapped, and anything that can’t be reused is recycled where possible
- Based on the Wirral, working across the North West and further afield
Frequently Asked Questions
Damaged components can’t be reused, but they don’t necessarily stop us buying the rest. Older or less common ranges may be worth less. Send us photos and we’ll let you know.
No. Photos of the uprights, beam connectors and any labels usually let us identify it.
Often, yes. We phase the work and keep the area separated from your operations. Any restrictions, closures or stock moves needed are agreed with you before we start.
Yes. We look at the floor’s construction, size and condition, and at what’s involved in dismantling it, including stairs, handrails and floor fixings.
It depends on the size of the job, access and our programme. Tell us your deadline, for example a lease end or move date, and we’ll confirm a programme with our offer.
It depends on the job. Payment terms, including when and how you’re paid, are set out in our written offer, so you know before anything is agreed.
Most of our work is in the North West, but we also take on removals further afield. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
