DECOMMISSIONING

Commercial defit in Melbourne: whole office floors cleared for handover

We strip whole office floors and tenancies across Melbourne: partitions, IT rooms, cabling, furniture and steel. The floor is left in the agreed condition, and each material is recycled, reused or destroyed. Business and industry only. We don't offer residential services.

How we work

Commercial defit usually means a lease is ending, the floor has to go back to shell and the handover date is fixed.

The problem

An office floor can hold partitioned rooms, a server room, filing cabinets, joinery, carpet and a lot of cable. It all has to go by a set date, around the building's lift and loading rules.

What Crex does

Look at the floor. A walk-through or photos, the floor plan and the lease end date. For buildings from before 1990, we check the asbestos register first.
Plan the order. Lift and dock bookings, after-hours times and which rooms go first.
Strip it out. IT goes under your data instruction, steel and cable are kept apart for recycling, and the floor is left as agreed.

What we take

What we handle

Commercial defit Melbourne: what comes out

Whole floors and tenancies, for the tenant or the landlord. The decommissioning scope checklist and office decommissioning checklist help you gather the details.

IT rooms and workstations: servers and networking, computers and laptops and screens, handled like an e-waste collection.
Filing cabinets, compactus units and steel shelving: metal from retired equipment.
Copper cable and wiring, pulled out once the electrician has made it safe.
Non-structural partitions, ceilings, joinery and floor coverings.
Furniture and fittings.
Kitchen and breakout areas, once services are disconnected.

What we don't handle

Structural, electrical, plumbing or fire services work, which belongs to licensed trades.

Asbestos removal, which a licensed removalist does before we start.

Single rooms and small clear-outs.

Two ways to run it

Single handover

The whole floor in one job, against a fixed handover date. Suits an empty tenancy at lease end.

Staged defit

Floors or areas released as the business moves out over several weeks.

Your questions

Good questions. Clear answers.

Email our team

What size of job do you take on?

Whole floors and tenancies, from one floor up. Single rooms and small clear-outs are not what this service is for.

Do you remove partition walls?

Yes, non-structural partitions, ceilings, joinery and floor coverings. Structural, electrical, plumbing and fire services work goes to licensed trades.

What about asbestos?

For buildings from before 1990, we check the asbestos register first. Any asbestos is removed by a licensed removalist before we start.

Can the IT room be included?

Yes. Servers, switches, computers and drives go as part of the same job, with the data wiped or destroyed as you instruct.

How do you quote?

From a walk-through or a full set of photos, the floor plan and the handover date. We send a written price by email once we have looked at it properly.
