Downton is a large village on the River Avon south of Salisbury, with its shops clustered around The Borough, the broad medieval street at the heart of the village. These are village-scale premises: a general store or deli, a cafe, a hairdresser, a small independent shop or a local service unit. Our retail clearance in Downton is a business service built for that kind of premises.
When one of these units is closing, changing hands or being refitted, we strip out the fittings the tenant leaves behind: shelving and back racking, counters and till points, display units, cafe or salon fittings, leftover stock and interior and exterior signage. We hand the unit back as a clean shell ready for the next occupier.
Some of the older premises around The Borough are period buildings with narrow frontages and awkward internal access, so we plan the route out, protect features and keep loading tidy on a street that stays busy. We work to whatever lease-handover date you are tied to.
As a licensed waste carrier we sort and dispose of everything correctly, using the Salisbury Household Recycling Centre at Churchfields when an authorised facility is needed, and we can provide a waste transfer note for your lease and records.

We remove shelving, counters, till points, racking, display units and the fittings from delis, cafes and salons, unbolting fixed items so the unit is left as a bare shell for handover or refit.
Leftover stock, packaging, storeroom clutter and interior and exterior signage all go in one visit, so you are not left running loads out of the village to the tip yourself.
We separate for reuse and recycling first, then route the rest correctly as a licensed carrier, using the Salisbury Household Recycling Centre at Churchfields where an authorised facility is needed.
Choosing us for retail clearance in Downton means one team to empty the unit, strip out the fittings and handle the waste responsibly.
We keep it straightforward for shopkeepers, landlords and agents, leaving the premises ready to relet or refit.
Pick up the phone - we are ready when you are.
Our Downton retail clearance is for village shopkeepers around The Borough who are closing, retiring, moving or refitting and need the unit emptied before the keys go back.
It also suits landlords and agents who have taken back a village unit and need shelving, counters and signage cleared before re-letting, especially where an older building needs careful handling.
If you are dealing with a lease surrender or a change of use, we strip the unit to a shell, sort the waste and provide the transfer note you need.
How it works
Let us know the shop type, size, access and fittings, plus your handover date. Photos of an older or narrow unit help us plan.
We price the strip-out, clearance and disposal up front, with van, labour and waste transfer note included.
On the day we protect access routes, dismantle fixtures, remove stock and signage and load tidily on a busy street.
We leave the unit swept and clear as a bare shell and hand over your waste transfer note.
