Restaurant Equipment Removal in Auburn Hills

Expert Restaurant Equipment Removal for Auburn Hills Food Service Businesses

Auburn Hills's thriving restaurant and commercial food service industry - concentrated around Auburn Road and near the Auburn Hills Technology Park - requires reliable, experienced equipment removal partners. Many Auburn Hills food service properties built in the 1980s-2000s have outdated or oversize equipment that demands professional removal and recycling. Our crew understands Auburn Hills building codes, has relationships with local metal recyclers, and knows how to safely disconnect gas, electrical, and water lines without triggering costly city inspections or permit violations.

Restaurant equipment removal in Auburn Hills typically takes 1-3 days depending on the scope - from simple appliance hauls to complete kitchen teardowns. We disconnect all utilities safely, photograph final conditions for insurance, load equipment onto our licensed commercial trucks, and transport everything to certified recyclers or donation centers. Most Auburn Hills restaurant closures or remodels happen on tight schedules; we guarantee next-day service and work evenings or weekends to minimize your downtime.

Recent Restaurant Equipment Removal Project in Auburn Hills, Michigan

In August 2024, we removed a complete kitchen setup from a 2,800 sq-ft Italian restaurant in the Cherry Hill subdivision of Auburn Hills. The removal included a 6-burner commercial range, 2 walk-in coolers, a 40-lb fryer, stainless steel prep tables, and an industrial hood system. Total weight was approximately 8,500 lbs. We completed the job in 18 hours across two days, properly disconnected all gas and 200-amp electrical feeds, and diverted 6,200 lbs of stainless steel and aluminum to a certified Detroit-area metal recycler. The owner received a tax deduction receipt and had their kitchen space ready for leaseback within 48 hours.
