LOCAL PROJECT PLANNING
In Charlotte the Restoration Clause Is the Whole Job
Most people think decommissioning is about getting furniture out. In Charlotte it is really about satisfying a restoration clause written by a landlord who has done this many more times than you have.
Uptown leases in particular tend to spell out what returning the space means: cabling pulled back, wall and floor penetrations repaired, signage and security hardware removed, and the suite delivered broom-clean by a stated date, with holdover rent waiting if you miss it. The buildings on Tryon and College also control how you leave, which means a reserved freight elevator, a certificate of insurance naming both ownership and management, and protection of corridors and elevator cabs while a floor of furniture goes down.
Charlotte has more of this work than a city its size normally would, because the banking and back-office footprint here keeps consolidating and reshuffling. We read the clause first and build the plan backward from your handback date, because the expensive version of this project is the one that discovers the requirements in the final week.
HOW WE WORK
One Crew From Full Floors to Broom-Clean
Charlotte lease-ends produce a lot of good furniture, because the buildings turning over here are corporate offices rather than tired ones. That is worth money. Workstations, task seating and conference furniture in resale condition go to liquidation channels, and on a full-floor project that recovery is often large enough to change the net cost of the job.
What does not sell gets offered to Charlotte-area nonprofits with donation documentation for your records, and only genuinely spent material goes to disposal with recycling separated out. You get the paperwork for all three streams, which matters because finance wants the offset and sustainability reporting wants the diversion figures.

-
Liquidate & Donate
Route furniture and equipment to resale channels, charitable donation, or certified recycling to recover value and reduce landfill fees.

Remove & Recycle

Questions & Answers
Charlotte Office Decommissioning FAQs
General
-
Everything between the day you stop using the space and the day the keys go back: furniture and workstation removal, cabling pulled, appliances and signage taken out, IT equipment routed to disposition, then debris cleared and the suite left broom-clean. What it includes for you specifically is whatever your restoration clause demands, which is the first document we ask to see.
-
A single floor is usually a few days, but in Uptown the constraint is rarely the crew. It is freight elevator availability, since one reserved cab shared with other tenants sets the pace no matter how many people we put on it. Tell us the handback date early and we will tell you honestly whether the elevator schedule supports it.
-
It gets sorted rather than dumped. Anything with resale value goes to liquidation channels and can offset project cost, usable items in good condition are offered to nonprofits with donation documentation for your records, and only what genuinely has no use left goes to disposal with recycling separated. You get the paperwork for all three, which finance and sustainability reporting both tend to want.
-
We remove and route IT assets to your disposition processor under a documented chain of custody, with certificates where you need them. We are not a data destruction vendor ourselves. If you need certified media sanitisation, that should be a specialist, and we will coordinate the handoff so the custody trail stays intact.

Uptown and the Third and Fourth Ward, South End and NoDa, SouthPark, Ballantyne, University City, Steele Creek and the airport corridor, plus Matthews, Huntersville, Concord and across into Fort Mill and Rock Hill.
