Racking Relocation Devon — Dismantle, Move & Reinstall
Devon's spread-out geography — from Exeter's M5 corridor to Plymouth's docks — makes racking relocation a bigger logistical undertaking that needs proper planning.
Relocation vs Replacement in Devon
Before you price a new installation, price the move. For most Devon operators, dismantling, transporting and rebuilding sound existing racking works out materially cheaper than replacement, avoids new-build lead times, and keeps perfectly serviceable steel out of the scrap stream.
How We Move Racking in Devon
A Devon relocation begins with a free site survey and a fixed-price quotation. From there our crews destock, isolate services, dismantle beams before frames, label and bundle every component, load onto our own transport, and rebuild the system to SEMA standards at the new premises — handing over drawings, load notices and a PUWER certificate.
In-House Labour, Access Equipment and Haulage
Labour, MEWPs, forklifts and transport for Devon projects all come from Rackstor UK Ltd. Because nothing is subcontracted or hired in, we control the programme, the standard of workmanship and the cost — and you deal with one company throughout.
Certification You Can Hand to Your Insurer
Insurers and HSE inspectors want written evidence. Every Devon relocation closes with a PUWER 1998 completion certificate, an as-built drawing, correct load notices and a post-installation inspection record — issued as standard, at no extra cost.
SEMA-Aligned Setting Out and Sign-Off
Every Devon reinstallation is set out from a drawing and built to SEMA standards, with new floor fixings, verified frame plumb, fully engaged beams and correctly fitted safety pins. Damaged uprights identified during the survey are replaced rather than reused.

What Devon Customers Ask Us Most
Can you move our older racking in Devon?
In most cases yes. We work with every major UK make — Dexion, Link 51, Redirack, Stow, Mecalux, Apex, HiLo, Polypal, PSS, Stakapal and more — and identify at survey any components that need replacing before reinstallation.
How do you price a Devon relocation?
From a measured survey, not a guess. We assess bay quantities, beam levels, access constraints and the distance to the receiving site, then issue one fixed-price quotation covering labour, plant and transport.
Do you subcontract relocation work in Devon?
No. Every relocation in Devon is delivered by our own SEMA-trained installers using our own plant and transport — a single point of accountability from survey to handover.
What are your response times in Devon?
Free surveys are typically arranged within a day or two, and urgent relocation or make-safe attendance in Devon can usually be mobilised same-day depending on crew availability.
Is the rebuild inspected before handover?
Every Devon reinstallation is checked for plumb, fixings, beam engagement and safety pins, then handed over with a PUWER completion certificate and inspection record.
