Our Strip Out Process

Our office strip-out process is quick, effective and easy to organise. We’ll be sure to guide you through each point of the process:

• Initial booking: After you’ve called, we’ll give you an initial estimate and determine what needs removing and what we’re capable of disposing of. We’ll check the necessary permits from building management, and double-check lease requirements and other details.

• Preparation: To streamline your office stripout, you can help us by removing any personal items or similar equipment before we get started. You should also turn off and disconnect electricity, water and gas lines if necessary. After that, we’ll cover flooring and other features to ensure the workspace is protected and easier to clean.

• Removal and demolition: We’ll begin dismantling your office as needed. From workstations to carpeting to light fittings, we’ll safely and precisely strip out your office as needed. We can also clear out electrical cabling and data points, including data destruction.

• Waste disposal: Once each piece of the office has been dismantled, we’ll load it up on a 1300 Rubbish truck and ensure it is disposed of through the most efficient and legally compliant method. If you have any E-waste, we’ll be sure to dispose of it in the right centre, such as a computer recycling scheme point.

• Cleanup and handover: Finally, we’ll clean up any mess we’ve made and prepare the site for the next stage of renovation, whether that’s leaving a blank canvas or moving new supplies in.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does an office strip out involve?

An office stripout typically involves gutting out an office of its non-structural elements like ceilings, flooring and furniture to create a blank canvas for new tenants, renovation or a lease return. Other features that need removal can include office signage, electrical wiring, plumbing and workstations.

Is a strip out required at the end of a lease? 

Yes, an office strip out is often required at the end of a commercial lease. This means that the tenants are obligated to remove any fixtures they may have installed and return the property to the state they initially found it in.

Who should perform an office strip-out?

An office strip out should only be performed by a professional specialised in the proper commercial strip out, demolition and dismantling expertise for the job. A professional will also know the legal and safe ways to dispose of office waste once the job is done.

At 1300 Rubbish, we use licensed facilities for disposal and employ insured drivers to ensure your strip out is properly managed each step of the way.

What approvals are required for an office strip-out? 

The exact approvals you may need for an office strip out may vary depending on the building, your state and location. Typically, you will need the building manager’s approval and a Complying Development Certificate or other form of council approval.

How long does a stripout usually take?

How long a stripout takes can vary based on the size of your commercial space. Here are some estimates for an average fitout length:

• Small office: 3-7 days

• Medium office: 1-2 weeks

• Large commercial space: 2-6 weeks

What happens to office waste?

First, office waste would be sorted into categories to ensure it is disposed of properly. Then, recyclable materials will be taken to a centre to be reused for new products, while non-recyclable materials are sent to a landfill.

How much does an office stripout cost?

The exact cost of an office stripout varies depending on multiple factors, including:

• Office size: The size of your office determines how long the stripout may take and how many materials may need to be removed, which will increase the total cost of the job.

• Complexity: Larger areas with more built-in features require more expertise and effort to stripout.

• Location: Harder to access buildings or offices with parking restrictions will need more labour and make disposal and destruction harder, increasing the cost of your total estimate.
