Commercial StripOut – Perth CBD, Australia

Commercial StripOut Services

The Situation

A commercial landlord in Perth’s CBD had a vacant office, not the tenancy, but the departing company took their staff and essential files, leaving behind all the mess. Broken chairs and desks; filled cabinets and racks; and years of accumulated office waste. The new tenant was due in ten days.

The landlord was worried because the mess was spread over all four floors. Like in the offices, meeting rooms, and kitchens, they blocked the elevators and the doorways. The landlord tried to deal with the mess on his own, but the accumulated waste was so severe that a normal person could not handle it alone. But the landlord was on a tight timeline. He wanted to complete the commercial stripout as soon as possible before the tenant's lease start date. He contacted JunkLift and explained the situation with some pictures and requested an immediate inspection.

The Assessment

Four floors, One plan

The JunkLift team responded quickly and visited the office as per the schedule. Our team started its inspection, floor by floor and room by room, and made a complete count of what was there. It helped to organize the items by their type before the office stripout process, so nothing got missed or misquoted.

We divided the items into three possible categories. The first row was the bulky furniture, like desks, cabinets, chairs, and racks, and broke them into smaller pieces so they could fit into elevators and doorways. Second, collected all the IT and e-waste, such as monitors, hard drives, old servers, and networking gear, and carefully sent it to a licensed e-waste facility rather than to general waste. Third, all the kitchen appliances, like commercial fridges and microwaves, which were counted as white goods, are handled separately because they need their own disposal stream.

Our team used all the professional tools and vehicles for heavy lifting and loading. Our team leader confirmed the price with the landlord without any misunderstandings or sudden surprises and signed off on the document.

The Solution

Top to bottom, nothing left behind

On the first day, we started to clear the upper floor and worked downward because it saved time. With this method, the upper floors stay clean and out of the way, and also give us the extra space to gather the items near the elevator. Desks and cabinets were disassembled on-site, so they could be lifted without dragging and damaging the surface or walls.

After inspecting the volume of the items, our team was divided into three groups: one group was breaking the heavy and wooden items and staging them, another was handling the loading and lifting procedure, and the third was packing the trucks below. It helped to keep the workflow moving without any delays or standstills.

IT and e-waste were packed and labelled as they came off each floor, loaded separately, and sent to a certified recycler facility. Furniture and other goods' condition material donated to a charitable organisation with the landlord's permission. Our commercial stripout process ensured that at the end of day two, every floor, surface, and small point was fully empty and cleared.

The Result

New Tenant. Clean Slate.

The new tenant moved in that evening, without difficulties. Our office stripout service delivered:
