How to Disassemble Warehouse Racking

The following are general steps for dismantling the pallet racking in your facility:

Step The first step is to gently remove the wire decking on your pallet racks. Once they are down, you can remove the shelf dividers and the guards on your columns and posts.
Step Next, you’ll want to take down the horizontal beams. In some cases, you’ll want to leave one beam intact to support the uprights before taking those down too.
Step Remove the anchor systems that are securing the uprights of your racking.
Step If there is a remaining beam, remove it while keeping your uprights secure. Then lower the uprights and set them aside.
Step Uninstall the rest of your racking anchors.

Once your pallet racks are taken down, you can bundle your components and prepare them for selling, storing or reinstalling them in your facility. Working with professionals can help make this process significantly easier.
