WAREHOUSE MAKE GOOD SERVICES

Moving out of a warehouse involves more than handing back the keys. Before your lease ends, the property may need to be cleared, storage systems dismantled and the space returned to an agreed condition. That’s where we can help. 

Rackman Australia provides complete warehouse make good services to help businesses manage the process safely, efficiently and on schedule. Our experienced team can assess your existing warehouse, dismantle and remove racking, clear unwanted storage equipment and help prepare the facility for handover. 

We can also assess second-hand racking for purchase or trade-in, helping you recover value from equipment you no longer need. And when you’re relocating, our warehouse design specialists can help you decide what should be reused, replaced or reconfigured for your new site. 

From the first inspection to the final clear-out, Rackman gives you one experienced team to get your warehouse sorted.

What is a warehouse make good? 

A warehouse make good is the process of returning a leased industrial property to the condition required under your lease agreement. 

The exact requirements will depend on the property, the terms of the lease and any changes you may have made. Generally, the work includes dismantling pallet racking, shelving, raised storage areas, barriers, workbenches and other installed storage equipment. 

A make good can become complicated when several contractors are responsible for different parts of the job. As Rackman specialises in warehouse storage systems, we manage the racking-related work as one streamlined project.

A complete warehouse clear-out service

Rackman can manage the removal of a wide range of industrial storage equipment, from a few bays of shelving to extensive warehouse racking systems. 

Our project managers and installation teams plan the work around your warehouse, equipment and handover deadline. We consider site access, material-handling requirements, other contractors and the safest sequence for dismantling and removal. 

Depending on the warehouse, our make good services can include: 

• Pallet racking dismantling and removal 

• Cantilever racking removal 

• Longspan and steel shelving removal 

• Mezzanine or raised storage area dismantling 

• Workbench and storage cabinet removal 

• Rack protection and barrier removal 

• Core drilling and bolt capping 

• Sorting reusable and unwanted equipment 

• Loading and transport coordination 

• General storage-system site clearing 

Every project is different, so we begin by inspecting the warehouse and working out what needs to remain, what needs to move and what needs to go. 

Sell or trade in your second-hand racking

Old warehouse racking does not always need to become waste. 

Rackman trades and sells storage systems through an Australia-wide network. Where your existing equipment is suitable, we can assess it for potential purchase or trade-in as part of the warehouse make good process. 

The condition, brand, configuration, age and current demand for the system will all impact its resaleability. Our team can inspect the racking and provide clear advice on the available options. 

Selling second-hand racking could help you simplify clearance, reduce waste and recover value from equipment that was likely to sit around anyway. Because our team understands both new and second-hand storage systems, we’ll tell you straight what’s worth keeping, moving, trading or scrapping.

Make your next warehouse work even harder 

A lease ending is an opportunity to evolve, and we can help you do it. Rackman has specialised in industrial storage systems since 1996. Our team combines extensive experience across warehouse consultation, design, product supply, installation, relocation, audits and project management. 

Before relocating your existing racking, we’ll assess whether it will suit the dimensions, floor conditions and operational requirements of your new facility. Reusing every component looks cheaper on paper, but it isn’t if the old configuration caps your storage capacity or slows the floor down. 

With Rackman, instead of simply transferring an outdated setup from one building to another, you can begin the next lease with a warehouse designed around the way your business currently works.

Experienced project management from start to finish 

Warehouse make good projects often operate against fixed deadlines. Delays can affect final inspections, lease obligations, removalists, incoming tenants and the opening of your next facility. 

Rackman’s project managers coordinate the technical and practical details from the initial site visit through to completion. Our installation teams include trained leading hands and experienced industrial racking installers with the specialised equipment required to complete the work safely. 

Our integrated management and safety systems support a consistent approach across warehouse installations, relocations and make good work. This helps identify potential issues early and keeps everyone on the same page. 

Why choose Rackman for your warehouse make good? 

At Rackman, we love racking. It’s the only thing we do, not a sideline we picked up alongside general strip-out work. 

Founded in 1996, we have delivered warehouse projects for businesses across Australia. Our capabilities cover the complete storage-system lifecycle: consulting, designing, supplying, installing, maintaining, relocating and trading racking systems. 

That broader expertise matters during a make good. We can dismantle equipment with an understanding of how it was designed, identify components that may still have value and help determine how suitable products could be used in another warehouse. 

With operations in Western Australia and South Australia, supporting teams in other major cities and a nationwide supply and project network, Rackman can support warehouse moves anywhere in Australia.  

Whether you’re leaving a small industrial unit or clearing a large distribution facility, you’ll receive the same focus on safety, communication and getting the work done properly. 

Get your warehouse ready for handover 

Trust us, don’t leave your warehouse make good until the final weeks of your lease. 

Early planning gives you more time to confirm the handover requirements, assess the value of existing racking and coordinate the make good with your wider relocation. It also lets us develop a clear scope, identify the labour and equipment required and help you avoid unnecessary last-minute costs. 

Talk to Rackman Australia about your warehouse make good, racking removal or relocation. We will inspect the site, explain your options and help you get the old warehouse cleared and the next one ready.
