What Is a Commercial Scrap Strip-Out?

A commercial strip-out is the process of removing fixtures, fittings, cabling and equipment from a commercial building, usually ahead of a refurbishment, relocation, demolition or lease handback. These jobs often produce a significant amount of scrap metal, from copper wiring to structural steel, and clearing it properly is part of getting the site ready for its next stage.

What We Buy From Strip-Out Jobs

Strip-outs tend to produce a mix of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap, and the exact materials can vary depending on the building and the scope of work. Common examples include:

Electrical & Cabling

Copper wiring, cable and electrical components removed during a rewire or strip-out.

HVAC & Pipework

Ductwork, pipework and heating or cooling system components, often copper, steel or aluminium.

Racking & Fixtures

Shelving, racking, partitions and other metal fixtures cleared from warehouses, offices or retail units.

Machinery & Plant Equipment

Redundant machinery, plant and industrial equipment taken out during a site clearance.

Structural Steel & Metalwork

Steel beams, frameworks and other structural metal removed as part of larger demolition or refit work.

If you’re unsure whether something counts as suitable scrap, send us the details and we can discuss it.
