What is Industrial Dismantling and Factory Clearance?
Industrial dismantling and factory clearance involves the safe removal of unwanted materials, equipment, and machinery from industrial premises.
When You Need Our Services
Factory clearance and industrial dismantling are essential when you:
- Relocate your business to new premises
- Need to decommission or close a site
- Want to remove obsolete/unused machinery or accumulated scrap metal and waste materials
- Require site clearance following refurbishment or demolition
Whether you run a small trading estate site, large warehouse, advanced manufacturing facility, or heavy-duty utility site, we have the ability and equipment to manage projects of any scale.​
Why Professional Factory Clearance Matters
Many businesses underestimate the complexity and dangers of factory clearance. Attempting to clear industrial premises without professional expertise poses significant risks.
The Risks of DIY Clearance
- Physical Hazards: Factory clearance involves disposing of heavy, bulky items including desks, electrical appliances, scrap metal, and industrial machinery. Without proper training and equipment, severe injury can occur during handling and transport.
- Equipment Requirements: While you could hire skips, trolleys, or pallet trucks, this incurs rental costs and still requires experienced workforce. Employees unfamiliar with clearance work face injury risks and will take considerably longer to complete the job.
- Disposal Complications: Most business owners aren’t aware of proper disposal procedures for industrial waste and hazardous materials. Incorrect disposal is illegal and can result in environmental damage and penalties.
- Planning Complexity: No matter the factory size, thorough planning is essential. Industrial sites can yield vast amounts of scrap metal and may have hazardous materials requiring specialist handling.
The Benefits of Professional Services
- Safety and Compliance: Our specialist team is fully trained in current health and safety practices, wearing proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when dismantling heavy structures and machinery. We’re fully licensed to dispose of any waste from your premises safely, efficiently, and legally, following all current regulations and legislation.​
- Convenience: Factory work naturally generates waste accumulation. Professional removal services ensure your requirements are met at a time that suits you, without disrupting your operations or diverting your workforce from core activities. We oversee all labour, lifting, processing, and transport, so you can focus on your business without concern.​
- Environmental Responsibility: Factory clearance supports sustainability by ensuring materials are processed and recycled correctly. Certain waste types can pollute surrounding areas, including water supplies and wildlife habitats. We not only collect unwanted materials, but also store and recycle them appropriately, preventing harmful waste from affecting the environment and preserving natural resources.​
- Cost-Effectiveness: Professional clearance eliminates the need to collect, transport, store, and dispose of waste yourself. This saves both money and management time while avoiding the equipment investment required for safe handling.
- Complete Solutions: You may lack the necessary equipment to successfully process and recycle scrap metal. Our specialists have the experience, training, and tools to manage all materials efficiently, ensuring nothing is dumped.
Advanced Recycling Capabilities
We use the Eddy Current Separation method to separate ferrous from non-ferrous metals, enabling us to process and recycle all materials we remove, including hazardous ones. Our transparent audit trail and full regulatory compliance provide complete peace of mind throughout your project.​
Health and Safety
Health and safety are vital in every industrial dismantling project. Because factory clearance involves the removal of heavy scrap metal and the dismantling of large metallic structures, one incorrectly handled component could compromise safety for everyone on site.
Our team follows rigorous safety protocols covering:
- Safe loading, handling, and storage of scrap metal
- Correct use of personal protective equipment
- Current health and safety practices and regulations
- Risk assessment and contingency planning
