What We Relocate

RACKsteel’s relocation and teardown scope covers all storage systems. Our certified crews are trained and equipped to dismantle, sort and safely bundle, transport, unload, and reinstall selective pallet racking, drive-in systems, push-back racking, cantilever racking, industrial shelving, and complex mezzanine configurations and others. Every teardown/relocation project is executed in direct coordination with you, our installation manager, and your subcontractors to ensure a smooth transition and relocation or teardown process that works with your business operations and schedule.

RACKsteel provides professional warehouse racking relocation and teardown services across Canada, managing industrial storage through layout reconfigurations, facility expansions, closures, or moves. Warehouse racking relocation includes planning, an experienced technical deployment team, completing teardowns before move-out deadlines, and a structured understanding of ongoing facility operations to safely manage the dismantling, transit, and reassembly of the storage system. Every phase of our teardown and relocation framework is designed to mitigate operational downtime and eliminate disruptions to active inventory flows, warehouse access, and logistics timelines. We scale our services seamlessly from localized, single-section adjustments to high-density, multi-facility warehouse moving projects.

Teardown and relocation process is strictly guided by safety regulations and compliance standards. RACKsteel’s crews carefully take apart and modify the racks to prevent damage and ensure the material can be reused. Any worn-out or unsafe components are sorted, bundled, and recycled. This approach keeps facilities safe, eliminates liability risks, and allows businesses to take advantage of equipment buyback opportunities. Our crews are trained on this – leave this service to professionals who install different systems on a daily basis and therefore know how to take them apart. Hire an efficient crew to take care of this labour-intensive work; getting your teardown done quickly, cleanly, and without ever compromising on safety.

Our Relocation Process

01

Assessment

We begin by evaluating your current racking system and reviewing your new facility’s building documentation. This step ensures compliance with local seismic requirements, especially crucial in British Columbia, guaranteeing safety and regulatory adherence.

02

Timeline Development

Working with your schedule, we develop a detailed timeline that aligns with your move-out and move-in dates, ensuring all preparations are in place for a smooth relocation.

03

Minimized Disruption

Our strategic relocation plan minimizes disruptions to your ongoing operations. Whether the move is completed in stages or all at once, we adapt to meet your needs, ensuring continuity.

04

Installation and Cleanup

Once we have access to the new facility, we install your racking system as per engineered specifications. We also ensure that your previous warehouse space is left clean and ready for its next use.

Teardown & Relocation Portfolio

Re-Engineering of Existing Systems

RACKsteel’s engineering division validates structural compliance, calculates floor slab load tolerances, verifies regional seismic engineering criteria, particularly critical within British Columbia and secures necessary municipal structural permit approvals. By managing these technical and regulatory requirements, RACKsteel delivers turnkey solutions that guarantee the long-term integrity of your facility.

Buyback and Disposal

As part of our comprehensive service, RACKsteel provides buyback options for existing racking systems. If you’re moving to a new or larger facility, RACKsteel purchases old racking and applies the credit towards new systems. If the racking is damaged or unsellable, RACKsteel will handle its disposal in full.
