Industrial Dismantling Services
Lone Star Industrial Surplus provides professional industrial dismantling services for facilities looking to safely disassemble, remove, or relocate machinery, structures, and mechanical systems. Whether you are retiring a production line, relocating plant assets, or clearing a facility for renovation or redevelopment, our team delivers the precision, planning, and manpower needed to get the job done right.
Industrial dismantling is a highly technical process requiring careful coordination, specialized equipment, and a safety-first approach. We work with clients across industries to carefully break down complex systems into manageable components while preserving the integrity of reusable assets. From mechanical disconnection to packaging and transport, we offer complete turnkey dismantling solutions tailored to your project goals.
What Is Industrial Dismantling?
Industrial dismantling refers to the controlled disassembly and removal of structures, equipment, and industrial systems. Unlike demolition, which focuses on destruction and removal, dismantling emphasizes the preservation of valuable components for reuse, resale, or relocation. The process can involve anything from removing a single production line to deconstructing an entire plant or refinery in stages.
Dismantling may be required for facility upgrades, asset recovery, plant relocations, or environmental remediation. Each project is unique, and our team develops a site-specific dismantling plan to minimize disruption, reduce costs, and ensure safety.
Our Industrial Dismantling Services Include:
- Machinery Disconnection & Removal: Safe disconnection of machines, compressors, pumps, presses, mixers, conveyors, and production lines.
- Electrical System Dismantling: Removal of switchgear, motor control centers (MCCs), breakers, conduit, and power systems.
- Piping & Process System Removal: Cutting, draining, and removal of pipelines, valves, and process flow systems.
- Structural Steel Dismantling: Deconstruction of support frames, mezzanines, catwalks, tanks, and steel platforms.
- Heavy Equipment Rigging: Precision rigging and removal of large or sensitive machinery with minimal disruption.
- Component Labeling & Packaging: For relocation or resale, we inventory, label, and package all equipment to protect it during transit.
- Asset Recovery Services: Evaluation and resale of valuable surplus equipment, scrap metal, and components.

Client Testimonials
We hired Lone Star Industrial Surplus to manage the full decommissioning of our 80,000-square-foot manufacturing facility, and I can’t speak highly enough about the experience. From the initial walkthrough to the final site cleanup, their team was professional, transparent, and efficient. They handled hazardous materials, disassembled heavy machinery, and even coordinated the resale of our surplus equipment. Every step of the process was clearly communicated and executed on time. If you’re looking for a trustworthy partner for a complex shutdown, this is the team to call.
Lone Star Industrial Surplus helped us decommission a section of one of our older oil field operations that had been inactive for years. Their team came in with a clear plan, assessed all salvageable assets, and helped us recover value from equipment we thought had no resale potential. Not only did they complete the work safely and on schedule, but they also coordinated logistics and transportation for all removed materials. The asset recovery alone added tens of thousands back to our budget. This company brings real value to the table.
I’ve worked with several contractors on industrial demolition and cleanup projects, but Lone Star Industrial Surplus has set a new standard. From day one, they were responsive and proactive. Their team took the time to understand our site conditions, adjusted to unforeseen challenges, and still completed the work within the projected timeline. Their safety practices were impeccable, and their documentation made reporting and compliance simple. It’s rare to find a team that delivers both operational excellence and outstanding customer service—this company does both.
