Safe Removal and Haul-Away for Commercial Refrigeration
Professional refrigerated case removal services in Detroit and across Southeast Michigan for businesses upgrading or closing
When you need to remove a commercial refrigerator from a restaurant, grocery store, or warehouse in Detroit and across Southeast Michigan, the work involves more than unplugging the unit and dragging it out the door. Safe removal requires disconnecting refrigerant lines, electrical connections, and any hardwired controls, then maneuvering the equipment through tight spaces without damaging walls, flooring, or adjacent equipment. Bell Rea provides removal and haul-away services for commercial refrigeration units, with the option to evaluate equipment for refurbishment or resale opportunities.
Detroit and Southeast Michigan-area renovations often require coordinated removal in tight spaces, especially in older buildings with narrow doorways, low ceilings, or staircases that complicate the process. Removal services help businesses transition quickly to new or refurbished systems, whether you are upgrading to larger capacity, closing a location, or reconfiguring a kitchen layout. Equipment can be evaluated for refurbishment or resale opportunities, which may offset removal costs if the unit is still in working condition.

What Happens During a Commercial Refrigerated Case Removal
You can expect the removal team to disconnect refrigerant lines using proper recovery equipment, shut off and disconnect electrical connections, and remove any mounting hardware or anchors securing the unit to the floor or wall. In Detroit and throughout Southeast Michigan, where many commercial spaces have limited access, removal may involve tilting the unit, removing door frames temporarily, or using equipment dollies to protect flooring during the move.
After removal, you will notice the space is clear, with no leftover refrigerant, wiring, or mounting hardware that could interfere with new equipment installation. Ideal for store remodels, equipment upgrades, and business closures.
The removal process includes safe disposal or transport of the unit, depending on whether it will be refurbished, resold, or scrapped. If the refrigerator still operates, it may be evaluated for resale, which can reduce your overall removal cost. Removal services do not include patching walls, repairing flooring, or modifying electrical panels, but the team will avoid causing unnecessary damage during the haul-away.
