RACKING DISMANTLING
& RELOCATION UK
Whether you are moving warehouse, reconfiguring your storage layout, or decommissioning a site entirely, UM Storage Systems provides professional racking dismantling and relocation services across the United Kingdom. Our experienced, insured teams safely dismantle all types of pallet racking, mezzanine floors, and shelving systems — minimising downtime and ensuring full compliance with health and safety requirements.
OUR DISMANTLING & RELOCATION SERVICES
Racking dismantling is a specialist operation that requires trained personnel, proper equipment, and a thorough understanding of structural loading. Attempting to dismantle loaded or complex racking systems without professional expertise is extremely dangerous and can lead to collapse, injury, or death.
UM Storage Systems provides a comprehensive range of dismantling and relocation services for businesses across the UK:
Complete Racking Dismantling
Safe, systematic dismantling of all pallet racking types — APR, drive-in, cantilever, narrow aisle, and mobile systems. We unload, disassemble, and remove all components.
Warehouse Relocation
Full dismantle-transport-reinstall service for businesses moving to new premises. We ensure your racking is reinstalled correctly with updated load notices.
Mezzanine Floor Removal
Structural steel mezzanine dismantling carried out safely by experienced teams. Includes decking, steelwork, staircases, and handrails.
System Reconfiguration
Partial dismantling and reconfiguration of existing racking to suit changed storage requirements — adding bays, changing beam levels, or altering aisle widths.
Racking Buyback
We purchase quality used pallet racking. If your racking is in good condition, the buyback value can often offset the entire cost of dismantling.
Site Clearance
Complete warehouse clearance including racking, shelving, mezzanines, and ancillary equipment. We leave your unit clean and ready for handover.
SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY
Racking dismantling is classified as a high-risk activity by the HSE. Our teams follow strict safety protocols on every project:
WHEN DO YOU NEED RACKING DISMANTLING?

- End of lease — returning a unit to shell condition
- Upgrading to a different racking system
- Reducing racking to free up floor space

- Selling unwanted racking to recover capital
- Reconfiguring layout after operational changes
Whatever the reason, our team has the experience and equipment to handle your project safely, efficiently, and at a competitive price. We operate across Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, London, Leeds, and the entire UK.
