A commercial strip out, also called a defit, removes a tenant’s fitout from an office, shop, hospitality venue or warehouse so the space can be handed back or prepared for the next fitout. Mr Junk Rubbish Removal strips out and clears commercial tenancies across Sydney. We take out the partitions, shelving, counters, joinery, floor coverings, signage and furniture, load every piece onto our trucks, and leave the floor swept for the landlord inspection.

We quote each commercial strip out on the size of the space, the volume of material and the access at the building, and we agree a fixed price with you before any work starts. Invoice billing is available.

What a Commercial Strip Out Includes

A commercial strip out with Mr Junk Rubbish Removal covers the removal and disposal of the tenant fitout. On most sites that includes:

  • Partitions, shelving, counters and joinery
  • Workstations, office chairs and office furniture in bulk
  • Carpet, underlay and other floor coverings
  • Signage, fixtures and fittings
  • General demolition debris and fitout rubbish

We carry everything out of the tenancy and take it away by the truckload, so the space is left clear and ready for the next step.

What a Commercial Strip Out Does Not Include

Electrical, plumbing and gas services must be isolated and disconnected by a licensed tradesperson before we remove any fitout that is connected to them. We do not disconnect live services. Once your electrician, plumber or gas fitter has made the services safe, our crew removes the fitout. If you are unsure about the order of works, we can talk you through the sequence when you call.

Structural demolition is a separate question. If your strip out involves anything beyond the tenant fitout, we will explain what is in scope for us when we quote, so you know before the work is booked which parts need another contractor.

Office Strip Outs in Sydney

Office strip outs are usually larger and more complex than retail work. Partitioning systems, raised floors, suspended ceilings and built-in cabinetry across several rooms add up quickly, and the material is heavy and awkward to move through a building where other tenants may still be working.

We book office strip outs around the building’s access hours, use the freight lift where one is available, and protect common areas while we carry material out. Whether you are vacating a single floor or a whole building, we look at the scope properly before we quote so the day runs to plan. If you are only clearing furniture and equipment rather than the fitout, our office rubbish removal service is the better fit.

Retail and Shopping Centre Strip Outs

Retail defits come with their own rules. Shopping centre management sets access windows, which often fall after trading hours or on particular days, and it expects common areas, lifts, loading docks and neighbouring tenancies to be looked after during the work.

We have cleared standalone shopfronts, shops on Sydney’s retail strips and shopping centre tenancies. We coordinate with centre management, work inside the access times they give us, and clear the shop without getting in the way of the businesses trading around you. If your lease asks for the shop to go back to a bare shell with no joinery, no fittings and a clear floor, that is the standard we work to on the removal side.

From the initial call and quote through to the actual removal, everything was smooth and professional. I needed a piano removed along with some other furniture and wood waste, and the team made the whole process quick and easy. The price was very reasonable, the service was prompt, and the team was professional throughout. A great choice for junk removal.

Carlos was very helpful in helping me organise my skip bag to be collected because I forgot to book a date and it was done on the same day.

Had a great experience with Mr. Junk Rubbish Removal for our end-of-lease clean-up. Submitted my request a few days prior, and Gustavo and his mate arrived right on time with the quote. They cleared all our balcony rubbish and old outdoor furniture in about 20 minutes — easy, transparent, and no fuss. Both guys were friendly and genuinely good to chat with. Highly recommend!

Mr Junk came to the rescue when the council didn’t pick up our council pick up. Thank you, they even came out and quoted the job before completing the job!

Hospitality Venue and Warehouse Strip Outs

We also strip out and clear hospitality venues and warehouses. The same rule about services applies here: any gas, plumbing or electrical connections to counters, benches or equipment are disconnected by your licensed trades before our crew starts. After that, we remove the fitout and clear the floor in the same way as an office or shop.

Make-Good Clauses and Handing Back Your Lease

Most commercial leases include a make-good clause, and what it asks for varies from lease to lease. Some leases require the space returned to its original condition, some require a standard the landlord approves, and others only require the removal of all tenant fixtures and fittings. Read your lease carefully, or ask your property manager or solicitor to confirm what is required, before the strip out is booked.

Once you know what has to come out, we remove it and leave the space clean and clear for the next step, whether that is the landlord inspection, a building contractor or the next tenant’s fitout.

What to Tell Us When You Ask for a Strip Out Quote

The more we know about the tenancy, the more accurate your fixed quote will be. When you call or send the quote form, it helps to tell us:

  • What kind of space it is: an office, a shop, a hospitality venue or a warehouse
  • The approximate size of the space in square metres
  • What is being removed and what, if anything, is staying
  • What the make-good clause in your lease requires
  • Your handover or fitout deadline
  • The access at the building: loading dock, freight lift, parking and trading hours
  • A few photos of the space, if you can take them

How a Commercial Strip Out Runs With Mr Junk Rubbish Removal

  1. You send us the site details or a few photos, and we quote by volume and access.
  2. We agree a fixed price with you before anything is removed.
  3. We schedule the strip out around your handover or fitout deadline, including after hours where the building needs it.
  4. Our crew clears and loads the fitout, then sweeps the floor before we leave.
  5. We sort the material for recycling wherever possible.
  6. You receive a proper invoice for the work.

Where the Material From a Strip Out Goes

Commercial fitouts contain a lot of recyclable material, including timber, metal, glass and plasterboard. We sort and separate it where we can and take it to licensed transfer facilities, including Cleanaway Erskine Park and Wanless Recycling Park at Kemps Creek. We aim to keep as much out of landfill as the condition of the material allows.

The invoice you receive is useful for finalising the lease, for a bond claim and for your business records.

Why Businesses Book Mr Junk Rubbish Removal for Commercial Strip Outs

Mr Junk Rubbish Removal is a Sydney-based team, not a large franchise with a call centre and rotating crews. For commercial strip outs that matters, because the scope needs to be understood before a price is given, and the space needs to be left in a condition that satisfies your landlord rather than just cleared to the kerb.

  • A fixed price agreed before we start, with no variations on the day
  • Fully insured, including public liability
  • Flexible scheduling, including after hours where the building requires it
  • A clean sweep at the end, with the space left ready for inspection
  • Proper invoicing for lease and bond paperwork

Commercial Strip Out FAQS
