Decommissioning
Whether it’s a temporary shutdown for renovations or a permanent decommission of a hotel, retail, or office space due to expansion, downsizing, or closure, CRS remains the premier choice for decommissioning.
Brief Overview
What is Decommissioning?
Decommissioning refers to the process of removing furniture, fixtures, and equipment from commercial properties such as hotels, retail spaces, or offices during transitions like downsizing, expansion, renovation, or closure.
The significance of decommissioning should not be overlooked; each decade presents hotels with an opportunity to refresh their offerings by updating outdated furnishings with sleek, contemporary FF&E. Additionally, this process is vital for retail spaces that are shutting down and require the removal of all retail FF&E. Furthermore, it plays a critical role in the workplace sector when an office is downsizing, expanding, or closing, necessitating the removal of furnishings, fixtures, and equipment. Regardless of the situation, CRS is equipped to handle the process with efficiency.
The decommissioning process is simple. Just contact a company like CRS, provide your project details and objectives, and we will develop a customized execution plan to dismantle, remove, transport, and dispose of your organization's FF&E. Disposal methods may include donation, recycling, or transferring items to a material recovery center or landfill. Once we have cleared all designated areas within your commercial space and any additional specified locations, we will ensure the area is free of trash and debris, getting it ready for its next intended use.
Donate
CRS manages the life cycle of hotel furnishings and surplus inventory from retail and office settings. We partner with schools, churches, furniture banks, and charities to repurpose unneeded furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E). This creates a positive community impact, ensuring these resources benefit those in need. Together, we transform surplus into support for those who require it.
Recycle
When donation options for FF&E are not viable, we focus on recycling hotel appliances, retail fixtures, office cubicles, filing cabinets, and electronics. At CRS, we sort recyclables by material to enhance our efforts, minimizing landfill contributions and promoting sustainability. We aim to recycle as much as possible on every project, benefiting the environment and the community.
Dispose
When donation and recycling are impractical—either due to the FF&E being unsuitable for donation or the absence of viable recycling options—we partner with hauling companies that offer dumpsters in accordance with CRS's responsible disposal guidelines. If we manage the transportation of your FF&E ourselves, we strive to identify material recovery centers as preferable alternatives to landfills.
