Asset Recovery
Redfern 2016

Asset recovery turns a Redfern demolition liability into partial cost recovery. Before structures drop, we identify and extract saleable plant, switchgear, structural steel and equipment, crediting recovered value against the demolition contract.

For asset recovery in Redfern, the local starting point is workers' terraces, corner shops and light-industrial buildings from the suburb's railway workshop era. That building stock determines what must be inspected, isolated or retained before our crew can deliver salvage and resale value recovered from plant, steel and equipment before demolition. Access is planned around narrow terrace streets around the station grid, with rear lane access the only machine path on many blocks, rather than assumed from a standard machine-and-truck allowance.

Our Sydney Metro team scopes asset recovery against the conditions found in Redfern, including this local constraint: Redfern's industrial past leaves surprises under the slab — old machine footings, wells and buried rail-era fill turn up often enough that we allow for them in every quote. The service plan also follows the region's material pathway: load-outs are sequenced into night windows and hauled to recycling stations outside the CBD to keep laneways clear. This is recorded in the quote as a service-specific method, not added later as a generic local surcharge.
